"When a game is started on the Nintendo Switch console a Game TPM is decrypted using cryptographic keys that are protected by Console TPMs. The games themselves can then be decrypted by the decrypted Game TPMs so the game can be played."

Statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged.

It's not exactly a new concept in cryptography.
