Starship is a native Nintendo Switch port of Star Fox 64 (SF64), developed by the Harbour Masters team, known for their previous projects like the Ship of Harkinian (a port of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time) and 2Ship2Harkinian (a port of Majora's Mask). This project enables players to experience Star Fox 64 on modern hardware with enhanced features and performance.

Known Issues
- Some users have reported audio "pop clicks" during radio communications, attributed to variable overflows. A temporary fix involves adjusting the master and voice slider volumes to 80% and 90%, respectively.
- The port runs well under standard conditions; however, enabling 60 fps requires overclocking the Switch for optimal performance.
