Dont think so. Once again, Microsoft took Halo from them. In the console realm you need stand out titles to separate your brand from another. Halo was supposed to be Apples answer for the PC realm as a proving ground that Apple could be seen as competent gaming machines. The console realm would require quite a bit of time on new ips. Based on the way Steve Jobs handled the situation with a lack of desire to buy studios like bungie (which cost them halo) I dont know how this will all be handled. 

I generally agree but I would state this another way: because of Apple's unique corporate structure (leaders own a functional area rather than a product), it tends to suffer from an attention deficit.  Because the iPhone is doing so well and deserves a lot of resources, updates to Macs have fallen by the wayside (also because of a lack of competitive pressure from the stagnating PC market).  So Apple needs to have a deep strategic reason to enter a new market, which acts as a distraction.  They didn't get into the watch market per se, it is part of a wider foray into wearables, health research, and it has the side benefit of further increasing stickiness of iPhones (which already have phenomenal loyalty rates).

Getting into the console market could have some side benefits: there would be synergies in game development as the iPhone runs the same OS, so it could attract a higher class of game developers to the shared platform and thus be accretive to iPhone (and especially iPad which is a major focus for them right now).  But I think Apple would only do it if they had some ulterior strategic reason (e.g. they have some brilliant idea that ties in with their work on AR and autonomous vehicles), because the business by itself is not that large, particularly in terms of user base.  The number of iPhones sold is 1.2 billion, and even the modest Apple Watch sales are probably outpacing the Switch.

Apple is losing relevance daily. This latest launch only further shows how out of touch they are. Animated poop emoji’s is not what consumers want or need. Their attempt at facial recognition is laughable considering Samsung’s works flawlessly.

The next few quarterly financial statements are gonna blow your socks off, stay tuned!

Notice the part where I saide "device"? 

Apple does not care about games and never have. Apple does not have a game division, develop games or have any interest in doing so even though games sell great on their devices. While it seems like Apple can just jump into the console market because they are Apple but would they not pretty much be in the same place as MS. They would need to develop a games division or they would just be another 3rd party machine fighting against Sony, Nintendo and even MS. Having a device that can stream 4K content is nothing new and pretty much all the other OEMs do this besides Nintendo. Sony has no mind share as a gaming company so getting your hardcore to get the device will be a challenge. Going for the casual, they would need to go up against Nintendo which would not be a good decision unless they have something to separate Apple TV from what Nintendo offer.

They do have some interest in games, since they hired Matt Casamassina away from IGN to manage the games section of the App Store.  But yeah, the total number of games Apple has produced and sold in its entire existence can be counted on one hand (I can only think of Alice for the original Mac and Texas Hold'Em for the iPod and iPhone) — they are happy to provide platforms for third parties to develop games on, but they haven't shown any interest in becoming a games studio.  To some extent, they don't need to: as long as the iPhone continues to deliver huge software sales, third-party developers will have an incentive to bring their A game to the iPhone, so there is less reason to pull a Nintendo and provide top-tier first-party titles.

The apple TV is already a console. So uhh... mission accomplished.

Just because Apple is leading on revenue doesn't mean it's a bigger gaming platform, it means it is a more profitable platform.
And even that link hints towards Google overtaking Apple in terms of app/game revenue eventually.

Android is still ahead in terms of the amount of games available and the amount of downloads and the amount of users.

I see.  I had no clue such a big name developer would be Mac only in the 90s when Apple was about to go belly up considering no one wanted their products anymore.  I could see a small developer trying to carve a niche out on Mac.  Perhaps back then Bungie was small.  Also, I don't really hold Halo in that high of regard.  I played better FPS shooters back then on ISDN when everyone was on dial up.  It was called Tribes.
