minus-squarecarpelbridgesyndrome@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 days agoPeople want a console but also: A wider game library (Missing on Playstation and Xbox) No subscription (missing Playstation and Xbox) a working 10 foot UI (missing in windows) controller os navigation (missing in windows) no bimonthly fullscreen nags to use edge, office365, onedrive, etc. (missing in windows) Working ACPI sleep states. (Missing on most cheap mini PCs) Backwards compatibility for older titles and not needing to rebuy games when upgrading (Missing on PlayStation) Microsoft could probably build an XBox that fixes the first problem but would probably fill it with nag screens. People with technical skills can probably run Bazzite on a minipc but might hit issues with sleep depending on luck while purchasing. People without technical skills just want a package that works
minus-squareSamsy@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 days agoExactly, I would add the emulation part. Steam deck and I bet the box, too, are great for emulation of older games.
