Yuzu doesn't require a switch. You just need a switch it to dump decription keys but you can find them online pretty easily The file are called prod.key
You don't require a switch to use yuzu. You only require the keys and firmware which you also can get elsewhere.
In what way does yuzu require a Switch? That hasn't been my experience.
yuzu requires keys which you're supposed to officially dump from your own console. you can just pirate them.
Its the legal way
just reading off their site: Prerequisites A hackable Nintendo Switch console (preferably a model that is vulnerable to the fusée-gelée exploit). Visit Is My Switch Patched? to check if your console is not patched. A microSD card with at least 32 GB of storage capacity. 64 GB or higher is recommended.

They say that because it's the only legal method.
it's just because if they write "just download this torrent full of nintendo copyrighted stuff and it will be done in one click", they'll be sued to oblivion
Fitgirl's repacks already contain the necessary files. These steps are unnecessary. There are also alternative ways of sourcing the files. :)
ok, thank you, can I also ask for the general idea of where to find these?
If you just want to play one game, Fitgirl's repacks are by far the easiest way, because she does all the setting-up for you. But if you want to play multiple games, you should be able to get them from the same places you get your NSPs. prod.keys and title.keys - I got mine from https://rentry.org/128bbkeys.
That's just something they say because they love Nintendo's dick in their mouth.
yeah, thought so, got banned off their discord for even hinting at the prospect of piracy smh
They're just protecting themselves; Nintendo's legal team is infamously tenacious and expensive to defend against, so yuzu can't give them the slightest indication they support the real day-to-day use case of their software.
They dance so we can sail.

Poetry.
If you want to play the breath of the wild, it will run much better on the Wii emulator - Cemu. Also super easy to setup and you can find prepackaged on fit girl.
You definitely can! I'm using Yuzu on Linux with an jurassic 1050Ti and it works perfectly. I basically play Mario Kart 8 and BotW (for now, TotK in the queue) and never touched an actual Switch in person (seriously! I'm Brazilian and these things are hell expensive here).
You should switch to CEMU for BotW realistically, it runs much better and the emulator is more mature
Might be hard if you're already far in the game, but I'd give it a try nonetheless
yeah I get that, 300+ for something you're using for maybe 2 games makes no sense
I don't want to spend 400 and more just to play miitopia 😭
You can get yuzu from their website, and the bios files and game roms from the usual suspects/ your favorite places online.
ok, thank you. Only reason I've been asking is due to the fact that it takes over an hour to compile shaders on each boot so I thought I was missing something
Update your Yuzu application to the latest version. It stopped recompiling for me and simple just loaded the shaders on every boot of the game. Boot times into the game went from ~45s to 2s every time.
It's pretty easy to do, especially on the steamdeck
I want to support this. SteamDeck is amazing with enulation. Is it perfect? No! Occasional glitches and graphics issues, but a really handy and easy option.
