Nintendo Switch Port #2

Closed jonasmare closed 1 year ago

Possible to have this ported to the Switch too? I know that HOMM2 can be played on the Switch but I don't think HOMM3 was ever ported and the Switch is also based on ARM !

Short answer: no Long answer: It's not the kind of port like fheroes2 is. This is a "wrapper" of Android version of HoMM3. In theory those kind of ports are possible on Switch too (Max Payne), but this requires aarch64 binary (64-bit ARM). And no such version of HoMM3 HD was ever released. Android dual boot is probably the easiest way of playing HoMM3 on switch right now.

VCMI could be ported in theory, yes. But that's not an easy task and would require someone with a lot of Switch experience (and time)
