Custom themes arrive on Switch via homebrew

theme2.png


The first custom theme has been released by the Qcean Switch team. It is called "Winter Odyssey" and can be seen above.

  • All elements on the home screen can be recoloured.
  • Themes are stable (they won't cause the Switch to crash).
  • Image themes are possible (as can be seen with Winter Odyssey).
  • Themes don't work on SX OS just yet.

Can we make our own?

A home menu editor is on its way, so you'll be able to create your own very shortly.


Where can we get them?

Themes aren't yet legal to distribute on GBAtemp but this is being worked on. For the moment, you can get Winter Odyssey from Qcean's discord server (which we can't link here), as well as others when they are released.

Official discussion thread is here.

up next, if anyone manages to give us a different layout i wont give a damn about a Ban anymore.
i cant stand the main menu layout, i want to see more of the games library..

it was great on wii/u and even the 3ds, you can zoom out of the tiles etc.

why cant nintendo do this for the switch , will it rly make the system slower to do that?
and to give us themes !?

cmon.

    If you get a chance to get a Pi5, get it, its like 3 times as fast as the Pi4 for Emu. GameCube and Wii games even play well.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure if it would behoove me, mines that B model with 8GBs of RAM got mine OCed to 2GHz and the only two games I found that might work better N64 Killer Instinct and PSP Motor Storm Arctic Thunder
