it’s also a great win for AMD, in general, to provide the hardware behind the two biggest consoles on the market for two consecutive (and a third upcoming) console generations.
Doesn’t the Switch have as much market share as the other two combined?
How can the switch be a different console from last gen, current gen, and next gen? Those are literally the only generations it could be considered part of.
Setting aside that the industry professionals definitely count it as current gen for sales metrics, that’s fuckin, irrelevant when the statement is about all three of last gen, current gen, and next gen. Whichever one you want to call the Switch part of, it’s the best selling console of that generation, so the statement that AMD sold chips the best selling console of that generation is false. Unless you want to make the claim the Switch is from 2006, they are incorrect.
Per Wikipedia, yes. A game console is the general term. A home console is the one that plugs into a tv, and a handheld console is something like a switch.

oh okay, i see what you meant now. but:
amd did win, it seems
Does it count as a console?
I really don’t know, I guess you could say handheld gaming console, but consoles have to hook up to something.
I’ve always heard it as consoles are static and portables are called handheld gaming systems
I can’t believe this discussion is still happening
Is a laptop a PC? Tsk tsk
