<img src="../../../wiki_images/logos//yuzu-logo.svg" width="150">
**Note: Archived Emulator**
Yuzu was a Switch emulator and was removed as part of the `0.8.0b` update.
The last version that shipped with Yuzu was `0.7.6b`.
## Where to put the games?
Switch games should be put into the `retrodeck/roms/switch/` directory.
## What file formats are supported?
```
.xci
.nsp
.nca
.nso
.nro
```
## Does Yuzu require BIOS or Firmware?
Yes, `prod.keys` `title.keys` and `.nca` files.
### Where to put the firmware files?
Needs the key files `prod.keys`, `title.keys` and the firmware files in the following directories:
**Keys:** `~/retrodeck/bios/switch/keys`
**Firmware:** `~/retrodeck/bios/switch/registered`
The directory tree should look like this example:
```
~/retrodeck/bios/switch
├── keys
│   ├── prod.keys
│   └── title.keys
└── registered
└── XXX amount of .nca files goes here
```
