It's too bad .NET AOT wouldn't support consoles. They use x86 and ARM processors that it already supports.

I know. That's why it's too bad! It would probably (almost) just work if only it used the console's toolchain, which requires signing NDAs to even look at.

There is more to it than just a CPU ISA.
