And no, i personally don't count an iPhone as a handheld console, touch screen controls are for casual mobile games for when you stuck in the toilet
- smoldesu 4y agoI don't think that would work. Valve can release a handheld like that because they have Proton. Apple cannot release a Metal handheld if their only Metal-ready games are Tomb Raider and Resident Evil.
- Kukumber 4y agoMost indie games from steam are available on iOS/Android [1] AAA companies all are releasing their games on iOS/Android Genshin Impact is another example of a popular AAA game on mobile, same for Riot games, all on mobile You'd be surprised how many steam games get ported to mobile, there are a lot! An Apple handheld using M2 would be very successful, nowadays people use Unity/Unreal, they both support Metal, most popular open source GPU libraries support DX12/Metal/Vulkan, it's a solved problem It's sad that in the west, most HW companies are scared, it's either that or they don't see the potential, or they are lazy Also the Handheld based Android consoles market is booming [2] [1] - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dead-cells/id1389752090 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dead-cells/id1389752090 [2] - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FweFSlRk_I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FweFSlRk_I
