Nintendo Switch Port of DevilutionX (Diablo)

Diablo build for modern operating systems. This is the Nintendo Switch Port. It's still in Beta as i continue to map the controls over from the PC version

How To Play:

• Extract contents of diablo-nx.zip release into SDMC:\switch\diablo-nx
• Copy DIABDAT.MPQ from original Diablo game disc or GOG version.
• Launch diablo-nx.nro
• Note: Hold R on any installed game and launch it. Do not use photo-album to launch. If you use photo-album, the homebrew only has very little memory available, and the touch keyboard doesn't work. This is true for all homebrew, not just Diablo-NX.
• Enjoy

Apologies for the necrobump, but I tried DevilutionX recently (1.5.2) and found very difficult to get used to the A/B behavior in menus, where B confirms and A cancels.
Yes, pad mapping is customizable but that does not affect the menus. There are open issues about this (5467, 6923), it's not easy to fix while keeping support for so many different platforms and button layouts.

Since I am only interested in the Switch build for now, I forked the current repo as of this writing and swapped A/B behavior in menus, so it is consistent with Switch menus.
It also swaps X/Y behavior in quest log, spellbook, and character deletion (so X is used to delete a character in that menu, rather than Y). There are no other changes.

Also made an updated forwarder while I was at it.

Please note all this was for my own use, so don't expect tech support, all I can offer is a "works for me". But feel free to use or adapt it if you like.
