I think someone like Limited Run Games might step in with a console of their own. The best games they release arent big AAA games anyway, so it wouldnt need to be very powerful. Maybe not with the current state the industry is in with expensive components, but in a few years if things get better.

It's time for a game system that mirrors 6th gen power and graphics. It's all people really need to make a good game and stamping DVDs for it would be easy. Small teams of 20-30 people could make such amazing PS2 style games on it. 

Retroid Pocket 6 with 12GB of RAM and 128GB of storage currently goes for $279. Strip it down to TV box and put DVD player into it, and for the same (or less) money you have something that is slightly more powerful than PS4, while having fairly modern hardware features.

I'm not envisioning anyone actually doing something like this, since there would be no market for such device without 1st party games, but it's nice thought experiment.
