LOL the VERGE! Nothing but Apple fanboys. Also, they did try to get a custom OS made by Cyanogen, but they told Nintendo to **** off. So the Big N went on and hired a former Windows Phone 8 engineer and created their own OS based on FreeBSD which is the same kernel on the PS4. Also, Android is a huge Memory Drainer.
Android is also based on Unix. You can make Android as efficient and optimized as you want, except phone developers just prefer to keep increasing RAM memory size so to make you buy their new phones. Nintendo could actually chose the alternative path and use the minimalist approach to Android - no extra applications and services running in the background.
