I dont think its possible but running linux on it and simulating x86 processor would make me so happy... am starting to be addicted to dwarf fortress and I WANNA PLAY IT ALL DAY and in portable that would be so awesome! I know it will run at like 1 fps in less laggy places, but 1>0...

Playing psx on it sounds like a dream. It should be possible to play multyplayer with joycons as there were lots of multyplater games with support for the pre dualshock psx controller and it only had dpad and 4 buttons... wanna play my crash bandicoot 3

Nothing. The Switch sucks :)
You're cool to say what you want, but what do you wish to accomplish by going into a forum ABOUT the Switch and giving this statement? Hoping an individual sees your post, gets sheer enlightenment with your four words, and transforms into a Switch-hating machine?

Custom themes, fun/interesting homebrew, and the ability to use Android on it while also being able to easily switch back and forth between the Switch's OS and Android.
Android would be amazing, the Switch would make a great tablet.
It would be a huge undertaking to port Android to it but considering how much more useful it would be with an Android dual boot it's certainly worth it.

Consider all the software on the Play Store and how much work it would be to port them or create homebrew to do all those tasks. It would certainly be more work than porting Android.

Basically if Android was ported we would hardly need homebrew because Play Store has anything you could think of besides some things that are disallowed there, which could be sideloaded. No point in porting emulators and open source games when Android has better or more up to date versions of all of them.

Though it would be a constant effort to maintain it and keep it up to date so it would take a team of dedicated developers. But the Switch is quite popular, so I don't think it would be much of an issue to get a team together once the Switch is blown wide open.

Five things:

1) Save management and editing
2) Emulation
3) Themes
4) Full access to all partitions/filesystems on the internal storage
5) Ability to install a completely custom OS

Rom hacking so I can play Xenoblade 2 and Fire Emblem Warriors undub, don't care how long it'll take, will buy them when undub is possible.
Aside from that, nothing, really

EDIT: Alright, only Xenoblade 2 then, FEW confirmed final game will feature dual audio.

I would like there to be homebrew apps for things that aren't on the Switch(Not yet, at least) such as YouTube, Netflix, Save Management, etc.

Nah I love everything Nintendo except the Wii U.

And I think the Switch is what the Wii U should've been in many respects, but even people like to bash the Switch because it's not powerful enough. Well, duh, it uses an X1 processor, do they expect portable PS4 like power? :lol: Not gonna happen.

Honnestly for now, a mean to use undub and uncensored patch. Heck, I would love to have that bzfore Xenoblade 2 (but I'm certainly dreaming)
But Switch is region-free, so you should just be able to change your region to Japan in the system settings.
