If Apple made a new console.

I know Apple already tried their hand at the console market in the 90s with the Apple Pippin, and it flopped, but do you think they would be more successful if they tried again? Keep in mind that Apple is a MUCH bigger company now than they were back when the Pippin came out, and they have MUCH more money they can put into making a console.

My guess would be that traditional console gamers wouldn't bother with it, maybe they'd get some of their casual Apple drones to buy into the device though.

Technically this already exists with the AppleTV since it can play games and you can hook a controller up to it to play them.

I think they would have to rely on a service like Microsoft’s Game Pass to get anywhere, and at that point how are they even differentiating from them.

My first question would be what an Apple console would bring to the table. What hole in the market would an Apple console fill?
