>The Nintendo Switch (which runs Linux) was a favorite of cheaters after jailbreaks came out. If you're saying the Nintendo Switch system software is Linux-based, I don't think that's correct. It's a proprietary system based on a microkernel architecture.

  ps* is based on freeBSD, Nintendo is proprietary (though use OSS libraries)

It's proprietary, but they kit bashed a bunch of existing components (iirc, Android's surface flinger, the Nvidia embedded linux drivers, and the freebsd network stack)
