A lot of hardware and not much to do with it.
A different company could turn this hardware into a pretty serious gaming machine or a zero config NAS or something but Apple is not that company.
They couldn't think of any compelling Siri AI use cases to put in the advertising and neither can I.
Current rumor is Apple (Beats) may be releasing a controller soon, and with that I’d assume that + price they are testing the waters with bringing AAA to the Apple TV.
If they put Steam on it with your whole existing library we'd be talking.
"We have tomb raider and death stranding 2 for $69.99" is not an interesting proposition except for Apple fanboy dads who hope that will placate their gamer child (it won't).
We're really not far from that with this: https://github.com/willfaust/madeira
The ecosystem for running x86 games on snapdragon phones is already fairly robust. Crossover on my apple silicon mac works wonders.
I don’t disagree, the pricing for their titles is painful - especially compared to Steam discounts.
That said, Apple has been attempting for years to make Apple Arcade a hit.
