If that was possible for that price point? Eh, maybe not. MS doesn't have many things that interest me. Plus aren't all their games going to be on PC anyway? I would probably just get a laptop.

to enjoy this thread I would have to leave my understanding of thermodynamics at the door

if you could fit Xbox One power into a Vita sized case on the fucking cheap AND have battery life in excess of two minutes, Nintendo would have fit it into the Switch case

check again in a couple of years when some guy will inevitably complain that the Switch 2 isn't more powerful than the Scorpio

Hahahaha. What are you serious? Surface and Hololens teams rightfully disagree with you.

How much does HoloLens cost?

How much does HoloLens cost?

3K. Consumer edition won't come out until 2019.

Flipping through the pages and there is already a portable Xbox One.

Made by Ben Heck so yeah it exists and made by him but off course not microsoft.

While that is a cool mod, calling it "portable" is a total misnomer. Even ignoring it's ridiculous size, it has no battery and literally must be plugged into the mains at all times, so by definition it's not a portable (more accurately it would be an all-in-one). Same goes for Ben Heck's One S laptop.

Why would they ? they don't have the studios to make their primarily platform viable so a second one ? Only Nintendo can do it.

Assuming such a Unicorn was possible (I don't that combo is though) it would sell to s niche hardcore and most likely be declared a failure vs Nintendo portable devices.

But it doesn't have to be smaller than a switch. And the switch could've been cheaper if it wasn't for the silly expensive rumble joycons. You can say the device can have an extra $70-80 room for more power/advanced chip.

The JoyCons cost a bit more than any included controller, not $70-$80.

Did you read the OP?

Sounds about right

you're an imbecile. you don't know what kind of effort goes into making any game, because you don't know a single thing about game design, or game development. for the record, I'm no expert, but your post still comes off as one of the dumbest I've read in a long time. Why? because I'm at least informed enough to understand that making a game like Shovel Knight is more complex and involved than its retro artstyle suggests. I'm informed enough to know to expect different things from an AAA team of 300 and an indie team of 20.
go watch a basic ass five minute video on like game design or some shit ffs, or, like, if you want to keep bringing the intelligent discourse like you have been... there's always GameFAQs

Microsoft profiled the games on xbox one and then scaled the hardware to run at 4k on scorpio .... why cant they do the opposite to run each xbox one game at 720p and at a power level of a handheld ... or maybe a tablet .. ipad pro level?

 

[TechJunk]

There was a similar thread talking about a PS4 portable...
Consensus was that it just wasn't feasible to do at a price point consumers would buy.
Think Surface tablet levels, your mainstream console gamer will not buy at $900... But it would be cool.
Probably next gen, I'm sure portability will be a bullet point.

It doesn't matter how much it cost, he said that MS is not good at efficiency, HoloLens and Surface showed them that he was under a rock.

How nice. Did I insulted anyone? Maybe you should follow your own advice and go to GF?

Yeah you slagged off the devs of Shovel Knight a few times. Or are they not people to you?
