Adapting HDMI out to USB type C displayport in?

[Mikos]

So i was thinking about using a Asus 16" LED MB169C+ as a portable monitor for either my laptop och my nvidia shield or maybe a Nintendo switch if I buy one.

The thing is that the Asus 16" LED MB169C+ use Displayport over USB-type C but my laptop and Nvidia shield (tablet and portable) doesn't have displayport out or type C.

Does anyone know any combination of adapters that may work for HDMI to Displayport over type C?

It won't work for the switch because Nintendo sucks because of proprietary video out. And I don't believe that is possible due to the fact that usb type c is a different slandered than hdmi or DP

This will not work. The USB-C to DisplayPort cable is only for DisplayPort-over-USB-C output to DisplayPort input, not the other way around.

 

As far as I know, there is no way to do this. You can't really connect to a USB-C input from anything other than a USB-C output, not even DisplayPort output.
