A client-server tool that lets Nintendo Switch players play together over the internet as if they were on the same local network. A PC client captures and relays LAN packets via UDP to a shared relay server, with optional SOCKS5 proxy support.

Use cases

  • play switch games online with friends as if on lan
  • host a relay server for switch lan play
  • tunnel switch lan packets over the internet
  • play multiplayer switch games without nintendo online
  • run lan play client with socks5 proxy
  • monitor online player count on a lan-play server

When to choose

  • you and friends own Nintendo Switches and want LAN-style multiplayer over the internet
  • you want to self-host a lightweight UDP relay server with optional authentication
  • you need a cross-platform C client with Docker or Node server options

When to avoid

  • you want general VPN tunneling for non-Switch devices
  • you need low-latency gameplay without a nearby relay server
  • you are unwilling to set a static IP on your Switch and run a PC client on the same router
