For the most part, all your gaming needs are covered - the Switch is Nintendo's own console, so you can easily play the newest Mario wherever. Handhelds like the Steam Deck or Lenovo Legion Go can sort you out on the PC front. And then there's the PlayStation Portal, a cloud based handheld that doesn't always work, but should technically let you play **** of War on the bog.

He continued, saying, "The future for us in hardware is pretty awesome, and the work that the team is doing around different form factors, different ways to play, I'm incredibly excited about. Today was about the games... but we will have a time to come out and talk more about platform, and we can't wait to bring it to you." Spencer was also asked if a hypothetical Xbox handheld would be like the Steam Deck, which can be played offline, or if it would be cloud based, to which he responded "I think being able to play games locally is really important."
