Oh yeah, Nintendo, the company known to release games that will only run on Windows PC!
this is not about Windows or Linux. This is about not releasing games that will be played on handheld consoles, that are most likely to be running Linux because its power to handle portable hardware with great performance. This will affect Nintento's consoles and future portable projects by Sony.
edit: typo
Nintendo only release their games on their own console...
Microsoft has made zero effort to make Windows more compatible with that kind of portable hardware, just wait until they release their own version of the Deck.
what i'm trying to say, is that Nintendo and Sony are declaring war against any platform that could run games better than they do, in this case Valve's Steam Deck, which runs a flavor of Linux. Thats why Nintendo did everything to stop the release of Dolphin on the Deck and the Yuzu Switch emulator. That alone would destroy every Nintendo future console and any possible Sony project.
No, Nintendo goes after emulation in general, nothing specific about it being on the Deck.
glad to hear it from someone inside. Thanks!
Don't need to be on the inside, just need to look at the history of their efforts to shut down emulation including ROM websites and emulators on Android and on PC before the Deck was even a thought in someone's mind.
