Can't seem to update. Followed the steps
- Using the method of your choice, copy the archive to the .update directory of the storage partition
- The next (re)boot will automatically update your installation
CTCaer has already commited it so if you really want you could compile his payload, or wait for v2.4 / 3.0

Here ya go, but please take a note that I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your switch, I just compiled the latest commit, nothing more, so if something happens to your switch it's your responsibility.
Dosbox is here. I wanted to try Commander Keen but I never had the occasion to

Until the battery desync issue is fixed I won't install BUT it looks really awesome and a must for retro gaming! Keep it up!
Lakka is a Linux distribution aimed at turning small computer devices into retrogaming consoles. It is a minimal operating system using RetroArch as a front-end - it contains nothing more, nothing less than what's required for RetroArch and its 100+ supported consoles and standalone games.
And guess what - it runs on the Switch too, using the magic of ShofEL2 ! Prepare your SD card, boot the system and you're ready to go !
You can find everything needed on this website : https://lakka-switch.github.io/documentation/
I suggest you read the FAQ as it already covers common issues and questions. The official Lakka documentation can also help.
The system is not perfect yet, some issues are still present (battery desync, no audio, wifi only working after a reboot...). However, it is playable and I feel like it's ready for a (first) release. If you want to contribute, don't hesitate to make a PR or message me directly !
If you want to talk or follow the developpement of RetroArch on the Switch (both homebrew and Lakka), feel free to join this Discord server : https://discord.gg/VZDWqXU
Enjoy
