I miss my Dreamcast 😭
Did you sell it?
If I had one I’d be using it as it doesn’t have any kind of DRM AFAIK.
If it had DRM it was not very good, that’s for sure! I still own it, but it’s in storage about 1700 miles away.
Nah releasing a console is crazy accounts of work and money. They switched to software-only for a reason.
Nintendo is the only one with a reason to keep making consoles. Xbox and PS5 are essentially PCs in a fancy box (although PS5 has a really fancy sound card)
Isn’t the Switch essentially a tablet with controllers attached?
Yes
Exactly, it’s a portable you can dock to a TV. The PS5 is a fancy alternative-hardware pc. The Xbox is literally a PC. I suppose you could make an argument for price, but hardware wise they’re not really all that special these days.
This is why Steam Deck is such a game changer.

A steam deck competitor or something like Atari’s recent console is more likely than a PlayStation or Xbox competitor.
I would love an arcade cabinet with most of their games remastered on it. So once they get through a few of these launches, release something like a Steam Machine arcade cabinet for $500-1000 with a huge library of games. I think it would sell well, and it would be fantastic marketing.
