Was there even a non-janky system before like the Dreamcast? I think every console up to that point was really scrub-tier hardware with really obvious deficiencies if you kept an eye on its lazy shovelware devs, but that would come together in such a way that super-nerds (e.g. Naughty Dog on PS1) could perform what was basically magic with it.
Yeah, getting around a badly designed console's limitations with clever development has been a thing from the first consoles probably clear up through the PS3. Even the Dreamcast probably only seems easier because it ran Windows CE. And for what it's worth, the popular PC titles that came out in 95 are things like Descent and X-Wing vs Tie Fighter which are great games but wouldn't shame a PS1 in the graphics department.

They're never going to make one of those VR cases able to hold a Nexus 7 tablet, are they?
Oh man, it would be huge and awkward but I would like that way more than my lovely phone, my phone fits the Viewmaster goggle but it's such a piece of garbage to look at that I never picked it up again

 gently caress this smaller Xbox poo poo, embrace what you're good at. Make an Xbox that ships with its own flatbed trailer

the 3ds is a last gen system
Less than that even, the Vita is probably more powerful, but that didn't really help
