Hacking F0F show off some new switch progress!

[Zap Rowsdower]

One wonders how the man lives with what is clearly such a large penis. I keed, I keed. That's pretty neat, and nice work.

mmm chromium

 

[Kioku]

Noice!

And now in before people come in and complain about them never releasing anything

That meme needs to die. They're showing, at the least, that this can be done. Maybe some incentive to learn? :o

What exactly is that they're running? Looks like a web browser. Is it that Linux emulator they were talking about earlier?

"Linux emulator"? What?

It's a 30 second clip of nothing. Where are my free games? Hand them over.

 

[KiiWii]

What a time to be alive.

f0f, please release something?

With something like Linux running on a Switch, a lot of possibilities come to my mind about what can be done with it.
Priorities first, i would definitely check if you could run Steam. After that, check if Monster Hunter World could run on the minimum specs on it, just to despise Capcom and its excuses.
Would be so, so Beautiful if you could have access to Vulkan API to make it run with the less than optimal specs to spite them even further. (I mean, look at Doom 2016. It's gorgeous!)

This week has been one hell of an impressive ride. Here's hoping to see this released some day in the future. In the meantime, congratulations to F0F for their impressive POC here!

What’re you talking about? fail0verflow failed yet again to release anything. That’s just another show off post. It’s even in the title.

You can't execute Portal 2 on Switch because is a x86 game and the Switch is a ARM device. (The same with all Steam library compatible with Linux)

So he was able to install Linux on the Switch? Badass. Might it be possible in the future to get Steam Big Picture running on the Switch and play some less demanding games on it?

no.
differerent architecture, it simply can't...

 

[Fadi5555]

I hope at least after getting linux on switch is to run emulators like dolphin, pcsx2 and ppsspp.

do those emulator has arm linux port? if not, then no.

 

[Geezerdorf]

Well, there goes my plan B then. Still, this is something i'd like to see on my Switch!

[VinsCool]

I really like how smooth it seems to run on the Switch.

That leads to so much possibilities.
Imagine all the stuff you could do using Linux.
