“we’ve done pre-release Mesa Vulkan work on every AMD architecture since Vega thanks to them kindly providing hardware, so there’s nothing meaningful to read into there.”

    Don’t they already have this? What is the Steam Deck, if not a rival to the PS5 and the Xbox ala the Switch? Shouldn’t the focus go into optimizing that space, as opposed to trying again at the home console market?

      The Switch was Nintendo giving up the spec race entirely to create an ok console and good handheld device.

      The Steam Deck copied the design ethos of the Switch. It is an ok gaming PC that is great for mobile gaming.

      A Steam console would be slightly different, but I could see it doing well, especially if it can become an entertainment center.
