Why would you want to, though?

It's not like the Switch is a powerhouse; you're better off just buying a Deck and emulating.

It makes a really really good android tablet in my experience and breaks in half every other android tablet I have used as of recently and I can't get rid of it.

Like sure battery life isn't the best. But the amount of things that you can do with a generic android device is astounding and is well worth the investment and it has more ram than any other tablet in its price category when bought used on eBay. Such that it actually functions really well compared to the shittastic tablets you'd be buying for its price point.

That and you can just run Linux on the Nintendo Switch anyway and have a fully functional computer that mogs any single board computer out there including the raspberry pi. Like having better hardware decoding and actual vulkan and opengl support that isn't gimped due to laziness surrounding drivers that surrounds these computers.
