Find the biggest and most powerful tweezers you have and take this rumor with it, because it is the least confusing. A source claimed on a Korean forum that Apple would prepare its own video game console, and it would be something very similar to a Nintendo Switch. In other words, a hybrid between a portable console and a living room console.
They reflect data from MacRumors: the console would equip a chip specially designed to run high performance graphics games
An Apple device only for gaming?
Apple I would already negotiate with big video game studios so that its catalog attracts the world of gaming, with Ubisoft among them. The console would compete directly with Nintendo, with Sony’s PlayStation 5 and Microsoft’s Xbox Series X.
We would all love to see an Apple video game console out of sheer excitement technician and dreaming is free, but it must be said that the rumor it doesn’t make much sense. Apple would only have to negotiate with the big developers to get their games to the iPad, iPhone, Mac and Apple TV in order to take advantage of its ecosystem of devices. An additional device such as a console does not hold too much.
And since we are talking about Apple TV, remember that rumor has it that a future generation of the player could become a game console and include a control dedicated to it. Oh, and we’re still waiting to see if this “Mac for Gamers” becomes a reality. These are overlapping concepts and leaks.
However, I wouldn’t trust this too much until at least there is no more hard data. I might stay with the data Apple wants enter the gaming market, to have a growing audience.
