Probably pretty good to be honest, video uses less resources than games from my understanding and hardware decode really brings resource use down a lot. I would guess in my hypothetical "Android Switch" we would also get a fully rooted ROM so that would be nice. Netflix and other streaming options seem like they would run fine too? Maybe not 4K like the Shield TV can do but surely 1080P video would be perfectly fine?

I am surprised to find they still put these things out... Not sure who is watching a 700MB rip of Black Panther but hell if I didn't laugh about it when I seen the torrent... I wonder if the deblocking techniques have gotten better or do fast action scenes still look like the Lego games...
Kodi is working under Linux on the Switch and it can play old codecs like DiVX/XViD along with newer containers like MKV with h264/h265 video. Until the sound gets worked out though it's kind of useless. VLC is bloated and slow. I would rather see a MPV Media Player port. It doesn't have a fancy GUI, but it can play 4k videos on my Core 2 Quad computer just fine (where VLC fails miserably).

For all the bitching and useless question asking around here I do love a good laugh and this thread has certainly provided that. Shows the good natured side of people too sometimes.
So yeah let's get developing the NXMC! RETRO FTW

An FPGA could probably replicate the chip's functionality without buying donor parts.+1 -

Like not emulating the entire SNES but just a loader and the enhancement chips perhaps even slightly overclocked like FX-2 -

I finally modeled and 3d printed the new HDD cages I need in order to build my 2nd NAS. Original ones don't fit the mounting holes on the hdds I'm using. Been sitting on this project for over 2 years smfh

Also another 70TB going in the front mount drive bays of this server. 182tb raw, going to probably use a zfs RAID-Z3 for 3 parity disks, so 140TB usable

Sicklyboy:
I could claw back 14tb by only doing 2 parity disks but I feel like with 13 disks in the RAID I'd be kind of pushing my luck on rebuild time if I encounter a disk failure
