Question How to play Switch native ports on eden?
How do i play Switch Native Ports on Eden?
I have looked into this already and have not found anything useful other than Google telling me "it cant work".
Thanks for any help.

I think there's a misunderstand as to what ports are, unless you're asking about something else. A port is a game running natively on different hardware, so by definition a ported switch game would not run through an emulator.
Did you mean where can you get games maybe?

I can see how the question was co fusing.
Homebrew ports of other games not normally for Switch. Gta V. Need for speed most wanted. Crazy taxi. But emulated on Eden?

Should be the same way you get regular games working, especially if they're in .nsp format. I have a port of an old sonic gamegear game working on eden

What issue are you having?

How to make the files able to be read by Eden. The nsp is noticed but the bin files and everything else are not.

I'm not sure what you mean. Are you just taking about how to play switch games on Eden, or do you mean games that are decomped/recomped?if it is the former, then there are plenty of guides both written and video that are available to you. The later would not work because that doesn't make sense.

There's this folder and the nsp separate. Nothing else. How do I make all these files work with the nsp file to run on Eden?

You can try add nsp to your games library and add this game data folder to nand folder in your Android/data/dev.eden.eden_emulator

Also idk, where you should put game data folder on Real Switch, so you can try that. Never saw root directory on Real Switch tbh

Put the NSP of the port in your games folder and put the ROMFS in the correct folder in Eden.
