  "description_en": "NFS Carbon NX ports the Xbox 360 release of Need for Speed: Carbon to Nintendo Switch by translating its PowerPC executable to C++ and compiling it for ARM64. Its Vulkan renderer draws Xenos commands through Mesa NVK, while game-specific fast paths cover audio, cutscenes, texture handling and uploads. Standard and Collector's Edition builds share the runtime.",
