Yeah but we’re not talking about trademarks here

Yes, but generally it’s far less profitable.

Legally, they have to, until they get a counter-notice (or realize it’s fake).

BOINC came out 21 years ago, so it wouldn’t be that unreasonable.

Hot take: one game shouldn’t be allowed to win multiple categories.

It’s Microsoft, so it’d be Windows-based, just like the Xbox.

Which is not to say it wouldn’t run Linux, but it would probably be a hassle to get all the drivers working for whatever hardware they put in it.

I don’t think this guy understands what innovation is. The Steam Deck and Wii aren’t particularly innovative. The Wii is a bit unusual, but pointer controls didn’t stick (though gyro controls have, in a minor way). The Steam Deck is just a regular handheld but with an x86 CPU.

I don’t think people are going to buy small consoles to play big games. And a powerful handheld is overkill to play small games. If people want to play small games, they use the phone they already have.

The handheld console sweet spot is slightly more powerful than the Switch. But the Switch’s selling power isn’t its hardware, but its library. Nintendo games have selling power. And even outside of that, the Switch has a surprisingly large library of third-party games like Skyrim and Doom. But if people really want a console that will do everything, they’ll get a Deck, because I know you won’t be able to do whatever you want on Microsoft’s handheld.

Playable, if not played.

I’m confused as to how that one wasn’t shut down years ago, but others like this have been.
