Yes i have but thats not the point. Why is it only some Nintendo fans thats missing the whole point of this deal the whole OS thing?. No one is going to beat Nintendo when it comes to handhelds but thats changing the facts if whats really going on here its not about Nintendo at all.

What point are we missing? Windows has always dominated the OS market. Are we meant to congratulate them for finding a new way to maintain the status quo?

I don't know how much it'll change the desktop experience moving forward, but since it's Windows it will likely still be riddled with issues and a bunch of unwanted nonsense.

The console will simply be a console with access to Steam. That's great for a lot of gamers but that won't suddenly revolutionise the market.

If anything the next consoles are already in danger of falling into the niche gaming product category along with other OEM devices, since we don't know what the margins will be and how aggressively they can price it.

What OS do you use? apple? Linux? etc?

ANyways thats the point in this new OS. TO make it gaming First.
