The Nintendo Switch console already uses an ARM SoC by Nvidia. But I'm not sure whether this has meaningfully increased the probability of porting games to MacOS. The Switch uses Vulkan, but Apple uses Metal, a proprietary graphics API. Whether ports make sense probably depends on how strongly the Mac market share increases compared to Windows.

The Switch can use Vulkan but it's unusual in offering a wide range of APIs, from OpenGL and Vulkan (the implementations likely derived from Nvidia's existing PC driver) or a custom low-level API tailored to the hardware called NVN. From what I gather from the emulation scene, the majority of Switch titles with non-trivial performance requirements use NVN. Even idTech, which famously uses Vulkan on PC, uses NVN instead for its Switch ports.

Interesting, I didn't know that. I thought Vulkan was already pretty low-level compared to OpenGL.

Then I guess Metal on Mac can't be such a big issue either.
