Splatoon Raiders on Switch 2 builds
Splatoon Raiders has a macOS gameplay issue in Eglantine build 65, a broader upstream README claim, and a separate NXNative Mac route. Each record describes a different scope.
What was actually filed
Lichii issue 29 reports that on macOS the player cannot swim in ink. The report was filed against Eglantine build 65 and includes a screenshot in the ticket. The issue was later closed. Closing a ticket is not a frame-rate measurement, and I will not pretend it is.
I checked the Lichii release notes for builds 65, 70, 75, 83, 88, and 93 for the words Splatoon Raiders. The compatibility summary that tracks those notes also says the game is absent from them. Silence in a changelog is a gap, not a stealth fix.
Eglantine's own README says Splatoon Raiders runs at variable performance. Separately, the official Lichii community tracker shows three reports marked playable. Three is the whole sample. There is no Windows write-up in the set I could open. NXNative's readme lists Splatoon Raiders among its named Switch 2 native Mac games. That list does not include a frame rate either.
If you need a settings guide, I do not have one to copy. The useful next pages are the Mac route comparison and the requirements table, which explain why an empty GPU cell is intentional.
| Record | What it says | Frame rate |
|---|---|---|
| Issue 29 | macOS ink swim, later closed | |
| Release notes 65–93 | Game not mentioned | |
| Community page | 3 playable reports | |
| NXNative readme | On the Mac list |

FAQ
What is the best emulator for Splatoon Raiders?
I cannot rank one. The macOS ticket is about an Eglantine-era build, the community sample is three reports, and NXNative is a recompile rather than an emulator.
What frame rate should I expect?
No number was published in the sources above. The cell stays empty.
