Are there any switch games that could be possible to port to a new 3ds?

Like would any switch games work if ported to 3ds? most switch games are too powerful to run on new 3ds and would be impossible but I'm curious of if any games could work...

I mean there are some games that have been ported to the Switch that already had 3DS ports. Off the top of my head:

• Hyrule Warriors Legends
• Xenoblade Chronicles
• Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
• Fire Emblem Warriors (this one was actually a joint Switch/New 3DS release)
• Minecraft (New 3DS ver is limited but hey it exists)
• Monster Hunter Generations (Double Cross is the full Generations Ultimate game if you have a fan translation too)
• Luigi's Mansion 2 (a 3DS game that's coming to Switch this year lol)

So there you go. There are some official things, but as others have mentioned you shouldn't be expecting any homebrew ports. Big homebrew projects like that are nice to see when they do happen, but it's at the whim of the right people having the desire to decide it's something they want to do.

If your gonna mention Minecraft why not mention terraria

mentioning a closed sourced game is kinda redundant as you cant do anything without the source.

Enough of this thread. It will not go anywhere without someone reverse engineering everything.
