Emulators like Drastic are probably never go get ported to horizon, and drastic is a very good DS emulator for android, and it runs DS games well even on a low end phone. Android will work better if the gpu drivers work, that's for sure.
Not always true. Any emulators that run poorly due to GPU stuff would run better in Android (with nvgpu) than they would in Horizon homebrew
I wouldn't be so sure, exophase already mentioned his interest on bringing drastic to the switch after making it open source.
This is a text that he wrote some months ago :
"Exophase wrote: ↑Probably not the most satisfying answers and really late, but:
1) xperia64 and I are working on a release this month, although it'll be fairly minor and include some stuff Android is requiring that unfortunately doesn't translate into anything useful for users
2) Android is requiring 64-bit support by next August, this is a really large amount of work and I wanted to see if I could get it done before relinquishing development/open sourcing. It's another kind of thing that'll need several hundred hours of work but won't actually produce much interesting along the way... maybe performance improvements if lucky?
3) I'm interested in Switch but it actually also only runs 64-bit binaries, so see #2."
Wait a minute, which filesystem will be used Android on Nintendo Switch? I mean switch only use exfat and fat32 but Android likes ext4 and f2fs. There shouldn' t be a problem?

If my understanding is correct, this version of Android will not run under the Switch's OS. You have to reboot into Android separately, so what file systems the Switch OS prefers is irrelevant.
Do you mean we will need another sd card for Android to run on the switch? It's ok

I'm no expert, but on my Nokia 7 plus (Pie, Android One), system files take up 15 GB.
16 GB card will be minimal for system + Google Apps. And you need additional space for new apps.

Nah, a barebones AOSP install which will be what the switch gets at max might be 3-4GB by the end. Judging from having a OnePlus 6T I could be wrong tho lol
I know it, we will boot Android with sd card but also Nintendo switch using that sd card. So.. exfat vs ext4/f2fs??

Yes, this is the solution. No need to use another sd card. thx
There is none, because it's still WIP. Authors of port have all drivers needed. If you don't know anything about making Android from scratch, forget about it.
GPU is not working for example.
