Interesting that the article doesn't mention the Steamdeck and the explosion of portable PC gaming devices as well. The Switch opened the market, but the Steamdeck expanded it and showed there was room for competition.

    That's because that market is still niche. It's "exploding" relative to the population of PC gamers, but outside of that circle, people still find the Switch more appealing than any of those options. Certainly there are people out there for whom the Steam Deck is obviously better than the Switch, but those people are a niche within a niche. Small fries compared to the Switch audience that Sony is eyeing.

    Yeah, isn't the Switch very close to becoming the highest selling console of all-time or something?

    PC handhelds are booming, but the Switch is on a completely different level.
