If 2026 is the next-gen release date for both console, this has to be the driest console generation we’ve had so far.
 
I get it’s the 25th anniversary, but releasing an Xbox handheld in November 2026 would be a terrible move. It’s going to be hard enough to avoid being overshadowed by Nintendo, but if they launch it right alongside Pokémon Gen 10, it’ll be dead on arrival.
 
I’d definitely buy an Xbox handheld, assuming it isn’t shit. I’d also love it if the handheld or Xbox successor could operate as a basic gaming PC as well. The only reason I’m looking into building a proper PC is for Grand Strategy/RTS games, if their next console can offer that I’m sold day 1.
