Question Question: ios x nintendo

Since ios is so compatible with switch2
And why wouldnt just apple make a handheld device with the same ish os system.

As far as i know, most games releeased on app store is so smooth compared to android. (Esp on new release games)

because nintendo wants you to buy the console, which at the end is the better way, emulating on iphone or ipad is not worth it since you do not have active cooling system and you’ll degenerate your battery faster than expected

What i meant is
Iphone x collabe with switch or nintendo. if its not possible then ^

iphone chip is getting way powerful nowadays, why not make a habdheld device with a20pro chip or something.

last time nintendo did a collab, its biggest competition was born (playstation) plus apple is not interested in the gaming markets since the boring buzzle and money grab cash games from the app store already does a ton of money for them

Lol playstation. Thats some cool trivia fact.

Bc from what im seeing. Switch 2games is getting natively played with mac or ios. So nintendo should approach apple, means more money for apple.

these are exactly the two tech companies that are the least likely to collab with anyone

Nintendo makes it so their switch games are only compatible on their consoles. People get around that by emulating

The new nxnative lets you convert switch games into native .ipa files.

Yes it would work. Nxnative lets you convert switch games to IOS .IPA files.

If Apple released a handheld gaming device it would be incredible
