Compiling a Go program into a native binary for Nintendo Switch™
I'll continue polishing this so that a proper game can be released for Nintendo Switch. As I described first, there is a high level of uncertainty in this project. Until a game is released, I cannot anticipate what kind of issues will occur, and I always have to be on high alert. Even in the worst case scenario, however, I know we can continue to release the game with the help of go2cpp, which is reassuring. Still, with all the hard work I’ve put into this already, I really want to release a game with Hitsumabushi and see it achieve some actual results.

I wrote a simple Go->C++ compiler to use for gameplay programming. Here's a demo of its use for my game project (along with an editor tool). I show the generated C++ in the end of the video. Compiler source code is ~1500 lines, link in video description. Will do a deeper public release soon!
not sure exactly about OPs use case, but for Ebiten a go to c++ conversion was done for Nintendo Switch support -- https://github.com/hajimehoshi/go2cpp

Re: Zig, yup Zig is actually among the closest to the design that I was looking for. I did a dive into using it from Wasm (https://github.com/nikki93/zig-wasm-test) including binding to UI like I do for my editor. Ultimately some issues I had were stability (at the time I then updated to a new Zig version and that broke things) and also some specific things like I want field attributes that I can reflect on in static reflection (they do have a proposal for this in their GitHub issues). I do think it's pretty close and viable, totally possible I stuck with it. It's also getting an official C compilation backend which is intetesting.
