Early speculation that the Nintendo Switch (née Nintendo NX) would run Android might have been spot on, judging by a series of recent tweets from Cyanogen’s executive chairman. However, it now appears that Nintendo’s Android ambitions were very real indeed, after Cyanogen executive chairman Kirt McMaster said that using the operating system was “under consideration” when the Switch was being designed. Sure, the Switch is still selling by the boatload – thanks in no small part to the awesomeness of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – but Nintendo must be wondering what its bottom line would look like if the world’s most popular OS was part of the final package.
