# Pound emulator
# Pound
## Devlopment is mostly halted on the backend until it is possible to dump Switch 2 firmware
> ⚠️ **Development Notice:**
> Backend development is currently on hold until it becomes possible to dump firmware from a Nintendo Switch 2 console.
Pound is likely the first real contendor as a Switch 2 emulator.
## Overview
Progress will start on the CPU as it is nearly identical to Switch 1, and later on smoothing out the differences between the two hardware.
**Pound** aims to be one of the first functional emulators for the **Nintendo Switch 2**.
Users will need to dump their own firmware from their own Switch 2 console to use Pound (dump in /assets/fw/)
Development will begin with the **CPU**, as its architecture is nearly identical to the original Switch. After that, work will focus on bridging the differences between the two hardware generations.
Pound will likely use some code from other Switch 1 emulators such as Yuzu and will specify which code in the documentation.
## Firmware Requirement
To use Pound, you **will** need to **dump your own Switch 2 firmware** and place it in the following directory:
```
/assets/fw/
```
No firmware or system files are provided with this emulator.
## Codebase
Pound may reuse certain components from existing Nintendo Switch 1 emulators, such as **Yuzu**.
All reused code will be explicitly documented and credited in the appropriate sections of the repository.
