Pokemon Sword And Shield have been released today on Nintendo Switch, and the Yuzu emulator can already run the two games.
While the new entries in the Pokemon series do run on the emulator, they are not in a playable state as of now. Still, it's really impressive how the emulator can manage to run games on day one.
