Homebrew Game [Homebrew] The Simpsons: Hit & Run Switch port, now working on firmware 21.0.0+

Hey all. The Simpsons: Hit & Run Switch port by ZenoArrows stopped working on newer firmwares, so I made a fork that adds compatibility with firmware 21.0.0 and later. I've tested it on a Switch running 22.5.0.

Download: v0.6.2 release
Source: newer-firmware-fix branch

Setup:

  1. You need the game files from your own copy of the PC version. Don't use the assets from the source leak, because they aren't the final version. Use the original .rmv movies, not the old converted .bk2 files.
  2. Copy the game files to sdmc:/switch/simpsons.
  3. Put the .nro from the release in that same folder and launch it from the Homebrew Menu.

Honestly, I made this for myself, but I'm posting it in case anyone else wants it. And yes, it's vibe coded, but I've been playing it without any issues. Full credit goes to ZenoArrows for the original port. My changes only fix compatibility with newer firmware, and the port itself is still a work in progress.

Please report bugs on the GitHub issues page.
