You will run the games on our extremely specific hardware using our proprietary software environment and you will like it!

No, I don't think that I will.

Can you explain what I'm looking at? I've had a switch sitting around for a few years(?) I wanna say and haven't done shit with it cause games are so expensive. But id like to use it rather than let it collect dust

That's hekate, the program used to launch atmosphere, the cfw for Switch. If you have a Switch from the first year or so of when they came out, it's software moddable with just a jig, otherwise you have to do soldering and the like.
