One TV I have an Nvidia Shield to get all the various codec support, upscaling, and the flexibility Android inherently has over iOS.

Another TV, I have the Steam Machine (HDMI CEC is key) with the latest update, which has Bigscreen mode in Plasma 6.7, and also Waydroid TV with Gapps to help with some issues. I recall there being a way to bring over codecs from ChromeOS into Linux but I have not looked at it.

Last TV is just the gaming tower with Plasma 6.7 for Bigscreen. Serves as the NAS as well for other devices to Kodi/Jellyfin with 20 hard drive bays.

    I know and also GOG, and there is even the remakes coming out.

    I'm hoping specifically to be able to play on the go on PSP given they the first game natively worked on there along with the trilogy of the Legend of Heroes before it.

    You'll notice mid to high end Motorola phones do not have the headphone jack, that's because they know those segments are more likely to afford being able to pay for their Moto wireless headphones, while mid to low end phones still have it. In North America, where your choices are primarily Apple, Google, Samsung, and Motorola, they are able to capture that part of the market, people who are too poor or unwilling to pay for wireless earbuds, or are unwilling to forfeit the feature to for better specs elsewhere

    To sell wireless headphones for $100+, higher revenue per person, and provide a non dorky way to listen to stuff through your smartwatch. All of them have wireless earbuds and smart watches. You need to replace them when the non removable battery dies so it's really a wireless headphone subscription. Apple's practice for the watch were the two final iPod nanos. Attaching it to your wrist with a headphone cord running up your arm looked dorky. Apple doesn't do dorky, Android OEMs didn't want smartwatches with headphone jacks to look dorky either. And Android OEMs often copy Apple because Apple is the more stylish one
