For Linux I think? So they're usable when you boot Linux on your switch.

This is amazing news.
It'll be really helpful for control emulators like dolphin and retroarch on Linux.

We just need two more things.
Driver to enable sound
Make vulkan enable on Linux for enhancing speed on emulators.

This is really amazing progress. We just need to get sound as well as vulkan api.

 

[DarkOrb]

Nice, but at this point I'm waiting for sound support.

Linux has no games! Switch too btw.

Steam offers a wide variety of linux games.
Also the switch's e-shop contains more than 600 games now.

ShinyQuagsire is already uploaded a new video shows gba emu with joy cons support.

This is really impressive.

Steam games won't run on the Switch because x86/x64 != ARM.

Those numbers are laughable, compared to list of windows games.

Who cares about the list of windows games?

yes because that's a fair comparison for something that has a lot of users, been used for over 12 years vs a console that's only been out for 1 year, and a open sourced os that mainly power users use and rarely the end consumer ends up using.
