Looks like it's easier to port from Android, if no one managed to port Age of Empires from PC there's also the mobile version of it which would be better than nothing https://www.aoemobile.com/en/index.html

I wonder if it's possible to port this to the switch, surprised no one's brought it up

First one isn't possible there's a modded old version of the game to remove online requirement but that version is 32-bit. The second is possible.

New port by me:

Looking at release date, there is a big chance it crashes on latest Atmosphere.
This repo seems to have up to date release

Omg Cut the Rope too! I was really hoping that'd get a port but didn't want to request too much. Thank you again for all the work you (and all the other porters) have been doing
I just finished trying both of these out. Jetpack Joyride for the most part works great, its just load times in between screens can be quite long (though I'm not sure if that can be fixed). One small feature request, JJ has (at least partial) gamepad support on Android. It seems the D-Pad is properly able to move what's selected on the screen, but there's no confirm button for that (usually it's A but A is set to tap where the cursor is). I'm not sure if it'd make more sense to keep A is tap where the cursor is and make the confirm button something like Y or make A it since ZR also taps where the cursor is. Either way implementing this would be great (mostly for stopping the bonus roulette at the end of runs since with touch controls it expects a swipe)
I ran into a couple issues with Cut the Rope. The biggest is there's a really awful music bug that keeps the music playing from the previous screen while also overlapping the new music over top (ex. selecting a level, then loading into a level or "watching" an ad for a bonus). It seems to stack too, getting pretty loud pretty fast. Thankfully you can mute the music in the options for the time being. Another weird issue I noticed is when you finish a level and load into the next, the candy will fly across the screen, often collecting stars unintentionally, before snapping back to where it's supposed to start. Resetting the level inside it allows you to play it as intended. And one small thing is the icon in the hbmenu doesn't work.
Even with the issues I mentioned above, these are still both really amazing ports! Hopefully at least some of this can be resolved, but if not, they're both still fully functional, so way better than nothing.
