Nintendo Switch hacked to run Windows 11 on Arm, and it's just about as awful as you can imagine (www.tomshardware.com)

Nintendo never hid this. The specs showed a Tegra X1 when Switch was released. It was always public knowledge that Switch is an Ouya with an ecosystem and released games.

None of your post is new but it's like you want to drum up outrage that a company used easily available hardware that didn't require custom hardware like Playstation or Xbox (which SHARE nearly identical AMD chipsets!)

Why get mad at the hardware choice for an 8 year old console?

Because they wont make a new one that is long overdue! And they shit on OSS projects like citra while not making anything new games that are worth playing.

I get old consoles are gonna use old chips, but thats a better reason to allow preservation of old games and the fact that nintendo still keeps porting games to this dead horse is unfathomable. 30fps is not playable for multible titles. Especially for FPS shooters

They also hate there community! Many people have made fan projects or youtube videos playing old modifide nintendo games and nintendo hits them with a DMCA claim or a takedown. It dumb you cant even buy any old games from them like mario kart double dash. So why does it matter that people do with a game that nintendo isnt profiting from!

And i dont understand why you even bother with bringing up my posting history, lots of people dont post on lemmy. Nor does the date of my last post add relivance to the topic at hand.
