So I found this guy on Twitter and he is claiming to have Dolphin running on the Nintendo Switch? I replied to him with concerns and got a response which you can see below.

Considering the questions I asked are genuine technical questions and not just skepticism and doubt, this response is not something I’d expect from a developer that claims to have just gotten a dream of many running on the Switch.

You can find his(?) tweets about Dolphin here and here.

If I am wrong I will happily accept that loss (and happily play Dolphin on my Switch, finally) but this just seems sketchy. I saw this thread so I thought I’d leave a comment.

He claims to be using the Mesa tegra driver on the Switch. This is pretty common on Android where people use the Mesa Turnip driver for Qualcomm Adreno GPUs but I've never seen someone port it to Horizon (if it's even possible). But take it with a massive grain of salt. I'll believe it when I see it.

yeah my man just got JIT and ported Mesa drivers to HorizonOS, as a WEB DEVELOPER btw, clearly the case here but hey just hope he proves us wrong!!!!! surely it is surely going to happen eventually if you pray enough (or burn enough claude tokens cause that's what you guys think will happen)

I should point out the entire reason it even works on Android is because it shares the Linux kernel with desktop Linux. Mesa drivers are actually fully compatible with Android. That's obviously not the case with the Switch.
