- Run ScummVM and use the launcher to add games and run them.
- Press the plus key to return to the launcher and play another game.
- The latest daily version of ScummVM for Switch is [here](https://buildbot.scummvm.org/snapshots/master/switch-master-latest.zip) (needs to be unzipped).
- Copy the scummvm folder to your SD card into the folder /switch/ so that you have a folder `/switch/scummvm` with `scummvm.nro` and other folders inside.
- Launch ScummVM using your favorite method to launch homebrew on the Switch

Building the source code
========================
This port of ScummVM to the Switch is based on SDL2. It uses the open source SDK provided by devkitPro.
To build ScummVM for Switch:
- Obtain the ScummVM source code from https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm
- Obtain the ScummVM source code (https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm)
- Install devkitPro for Switch (https://switchbrew.org/wiki/Setting_up_Development_Environment)
- Install the development tools for Switch following the official instructions (https://devkitpro.org/wiki/Getting_Started)
- Ensure your $DEVKITPRO variable is set via `export DEVKITPRO="/opt/devkitpro"`
- Install libraries via
```
sudo dkp-pacman -S switch-portlibs
```
- Ensure your $DEVKITA64 variable is set via `export DEVKITA64="/opt/devkitpro/devkitA64"`
- Create a subdirectory somewhere outside the source folder for your ScummVM build and cd into it
- Ensure devkitPro binaries are in your path via `export PATH="$DEVKITA64/bin:$DEVKITPRO/tools/bin:$PATH"`
- Execute the command (once a curl-config script exists for devkitA64, the --disable-libcurl could be omitted)
```
../scummvm/configure --host=switch --disable-libcurl
```
- Install libraries via `sudo -E dkp-pacman -S switch-portlibs` (or just `pacman -S switch-portlibs`)
