The definitive way to display your Nintendo Switch games in Discord. 🎮
Now currently trying to be updated by Chibi-Usa (arisu#0404 for discord)
NS-RPC (Nintendo Switch Rich Presence) is an Electron app for Windows and macOS that allows every day Switch users to display the game they're currently playing in their Discord status through a Rich Presence.
As a developer, this was my first time ever using JavaScript for more than 5 minutes. If I've made any obvious mistakes, please raise an issue or make a pr.
- Display that you are using your Switch across all of Discord.
- Select from an extensive list of games to show off.
- Set a custom status message to let everyone know exactly what you're doing.
- Experience my questionable user interface.
All you need to get going is some common sense and the Discord App installed to the same machine.
If you're looking for convenience, you'll find already built copies of NS-RPC for both Windows and macOS here.
Running from the source for whatever reason is also possible. Simply install Node.js and follow the instructions below.
Once installed, git clone or download and extract the source to a folder you're
comfortable working in. Open a terminal or command prompt and locate to the
current directory using cd path/to/directory.
You'll next need to install the required dependencies. This is simple and can be
done by simply typing into your terminal npm . which will grab all the needed
information from the package.json file.
Finally, to execute the application you simply need to enter into terminal npm start.
Not as of yet. If you have feature suggestions or need support, head over to this handy Discord server and talk to us.
Have a good one!
