Linux runs on PowerPC, ARM, and Risc-V we don’t need the Switch to tell us it doesn’t need to be x86.

i do most of my emulation on my phone nowadays

The Switch uses a modified Tegra X1 IIRC it’s pretty much the same as is in the Nvidia Shield TV, I wonder how far back the Tegra line this could be ported. The Nvidia Shield Portable used a Tegra 4 that was just like two generations older.
