 # Pound emulator
 Pound is likely the first real contendor as a Switch 2 emulator.
 
-Progrss will start on the firmware as it is very simular to Switch 1.
\ No newline at end of file
+Progrss will start on the CPU and firmware as it is nearly identical to Switch 1, and later on smoothing out the differences between the two hardware.
+
+Pound will likely use some code from other Switch 1 emulators such as Yuzu and will specify which ones in the documentation.
