An overlay music player that could cast music files from another storage system (via the same network, or the cloud, anything) and play them just as sys-tune does, while we play a game. I don't know if the RAM restraints would let us have it...

People usually ask for apps to stream from Spotify and youtube, but these are all a complicated mess to implement and even worse to maintain.

I don't like to clutter my SD card with mp3 files, so streaming them from my PC or phone and listening to them on the switch as I'm gaming would be

We've had a couple of Android games running on Switch using a wrapper (Max Payne, more recently Bully). I saw this project to run the raspberry pi version of Pico-8 on Android using a wrapper, and wondered whether that wrapper could be wrapped as above to run on Switch. Double wrapper.

https://github.com/Macs75/pico8-android

It's 64 bit, as is required for the Switch wrapping.

The source for the actual binary wrapping (mentioned as "bootstrap" in the readme) doesn't seem to be available, otherwise maybe it could have been ported directly rather than re-wrapped.

I know we have a port of an unofficial Pico-8 player for Switch homebrew, but there are compatibility and feature (splore to browse carts online) advantages to using the official binary.

need an overlay that can open homebrew in applet mode

 

[masagrator]

overlays don't have access to applets, that's an OS limitation for all sysmodules, overlays are running on top of sysmodule

There was a text overlay, but it was abandoned and doesn't work anymore on newer FWs.
I forked and updated it to use Ultrahand and support current FWs: https://github.com/timschneeb/TextReaderOverlay-NX

okey i tested it and i think the bookmark and favorite are not working properly i mean is working when you use it but is not saving when you exit the text file. bookmark for long walktrough is very important in this overlay. hope it will fix someday.
