But most games won’t work on it because any major game with decent performance probably relies on specific cpu calls that arm doesn’t provide
I see what you mean, but I strongly doubt there many modern game engines with no support for ARM out there.
Are you talking about game engines that anyone can use, or custom game engines that run most of the games we play?
Like unity and unreal might have support for arm, but there are many many many modern games that aren't based off those engines.
Both, there are +130 million Nintendo Switch, and even huger numbers of smartphones with high end gaming capabilities (certainly more big number in units and capabilities than the Switch). Capcom just released Resident Evil 8 for iOS.
