The author managed to run LUnix on an NES without tricks, like embedding a Raspberry Pi into the cartridge.

      Yeah, but then why still put “Linux running on an NES?” as the title? It’s just click bait

        Would you give the video more than a glance if the title was “Operating System Similar To Linux Running on an NES?” I know I’d just scroll past it compared to the original title.

        Well, the title is a question and the answer is: Not quite but near enough.

        A title has to catch interest, and in this case I would not say that it is click bait because in the end he kind of put a “Linux” on the “NES”.

        I tend to be forgiving when the content behind the click bait title is good, like it is here.
