I personally dont get why they went with Nvidia again, they make cheap mobile processors and I doubt this one will be any different. Imo they should have gone with a low end AMD APU based on Ryzen 9000.

They could have implemented a simple compatibility layer to play Switch 1 games

And rewrite the whole OS from scratch instead of using a battle-tested codebase existing since GBA?
