TL DR: Some crazy playstation vita hacker wrote wrappers for android games to let them run on other arm OSes. Maybe something which could be done for regular arm32 linux. The PS Vita uses a Quadcore Cortex A9.

This is a wrapper/port of the Android version of Max Payne Mobile. It loads the original game binary, patches it and runs it. This is probably not entirely stable yet, so expect issues.



 
Interresting..we had some Android Wrapper on the Pandora too but worked too complicated.
And there was never realy an Update of this.
Newer Versions are online but i did not got them to compile on the Pandora:

Maybe this will work on the Pyra too.:)
 
Yes, I think on balance apkenv is likely to provide a running environment for android games and other apps than the OPs linked work. I mean, what the OP links to is impressive work, but there's no sign he's finished with the vita port, and no indication he's willing to being this to the moving target that is linux after he's done all of that.
