NFSMW-NX
Homebrew Switch port that takes the ReXGlue recompilation of the Xbox 360 executable from NFSMW Recompiled and runs it with a Vulkan renderer on Mesa's NVK driver, aiming for 30 FPS at stock clocks. One NRO per regional edition; the game's files and shaders come from the player's own disc via a browser-side installer page.
