Nvidia just doesn't care about console and handheld markets. They are unwilling to make customisations and it's low margin business.



The point stands, they're not willing to make something that could go in an ROG Ally, for example.


The rog ally probably won't sell a million units. The switch will sell 100 million. The switch is the mobile market, like it or not.


Sometimes HN users appear to have absolutely zero sense of scales. Lifetime sales numbers of those are like hours to days worth equivalent of Switch 2.


You can take a Nintendo Switch 1, hack open the bootloader, and install Linux with Vulkan-compatible drivers.

Make no mistake - there is no reason to do this besides shortening the hardware lifespan with Box86. But it is possible, most certainly.
