Discover a new era of AI porting and people are just randomly porting Nintendo Switch games onto iOS and macOS now, almost everyday.
People have now figured out a generic way to port just about every major switch games onto iOS, and they are running well.
This would probably result in a huge piracy problem soon.
Here is a link (unfortunately Twitter) to video of Animal Crossing New Horizon running on iOS, which is quoting a video of Super Mario Odyssey running on iOS.
@bitinn@mastodon.gamedev.place This is such a weird and wild development. I'm still trying to figure out how I feel about it.
On the one hand, it's admittedly impressive to see that people can do this. It's one of those things I think a lot of people shrugged off as being impossible, but we're getting working PC ports for games that were never designed for this.
On the other hand, this sounds like a nightmare escalation for companies trying to fight piracy. I expect we might see even more DRM in games, and an even heavier commitment to piracy litigation.
