Microsoft has stated that Japan is its fastest growing gaming market, with strong popularity for the Xbox Series S. This growth is noted to be, in a high percentage, coming from Japanese players who have never owned an Xbox before.
Helldivers 2 is now on the Game Boy Color, sort of.

To me the most important hardware is the battery. Doesn’t matter how powerful the chips are.
There’s no way you’re getting that 40CU 16-core APU in a handheld. That’s too hot and power hungry for that. The highest end APU they’re suggesting is going to end up in gaming laptops that can cool a 100W chip.
I think these articles get things a little out of perspective, Steam Deck has sold around 3 million and Switch has sold 140 million. But if you are browsing certain parts internet you'd think the Steam Deck had sold over 100 million. If articles are going to continue to circulate like this and continue to put the Steam Deck in the same arena then I'm comfortable calling the device a flop.
sure but theres still a limit to what u can put in there ha. power consumption would be the biggest hurdle. and cooling.
Xbox Series X – 391 (33,657)
Xbox Series S – 156 (11,846)

Growth is cool and all, but Japan is Nintendo-land now. MS & Sony are done in Japan.
That’s not saying a lot
Yeah it's an big leap I say that it's better than last gen.
They aren't just talking about Xbox hardware
