Gaming if the switch gets hacked do you think it will be able to run android

[migles]

i mean flashing is nand with android

i know, but this is all a "magic ball thing" the device is not out yet and people already talking about guessing
i wrote that comment to break the "let's all guess and speculate" and give something that i am sure about

I think a more appropriate question would be "can it run Nvidia Shield OS". But still, not sure why you would want this. Just get a Moga or other controller for your typical Android device....

windows does not run on arm

Windows 10 Raspberry PI edition works on ARM.

The Switch is ARM too? I thought they switched to x86 or x64.

Oh God LOL.

Sure, why not, but you would not have drivers to run everything, and besides, why would you want to turn your Nintendo into yet another generic tablet?

Not to mention none of your games would work on the switch if you had it running android. (Without some heavy modification and understanding on how games load, of course.

Long story short, I hoghly doubt it will ever happen. I see no point in it, others probably dont see a point in it, and i doubt Nintendo sees a point in it. Interesting idea however.

Yup, officially confirmed by Nvidia.

Nvidia Shield runs pure Android.

There is no "Nvidia Shield OS".
