theres also money on the table in selling dog food. insane apple wont make a move on this market.

The point being it would utilize their existing hardware which they've already sold people, which would allow them to effectively compete with the steam deck while costing consumers significantly less money.

Vertical integration makes execs get excited.

they already compete with it and every other gaming device and make $40 billion per year off of gaming. how much do ou think an iphone with a thumbstick no one buys except 2 insanely old guys will add to dthat. mayhaps $10?

What do you mean by stuff they got wrong? Like, physics stuff or just general design things or what?

I remember that according to them, literally every depiction of linking books in the series contradicts the intended canon due to design and technical limitations.

I know that the idea of how prison books work ended up getting changed because of another company deciding to change up what prison books are.

Just like things they overlooked or aspects of puzzles that could have been done better. Actually most of it ended up being just talking about the development woes of making the first fully CG game with early tech.

apple could probably handily beat the steam deck in both performance and power consumption but they have never given a poo poo about gaming, ever

let’s see what the sales figures are before saying they’re leaving money on the table. design and production aren’t free and it’s not clear there are a ton of gamers whose needs are not being met by any competitor right now

Always going to crack me up when the first result for xbox controller points to a 180 dollar version. That's the price I'd imagine an Apple console controller to cost. Has anyone used the 180 dollar version, whats the extra 120 getcha?
