This is bigger than it seems

It's definitely big, but I'm not in-the-know enough to do more than blindly speculate about why this is happening, at whose behest, and what it means for the future.

Creating a 'high performance console' market basically turns Nintendo into a total monopoly of whatever is beneath that. Could be a way to force Nintendo to play nicer with third parties?

Also 'High Performance' pricks my climate change faggotry detectors. The powers that be could potentially decide 'high performance' consoles need to pay carbon taxes to offset their higher energy demands.

There's a litany of potential effects of this, but I just don't know which effects we can expect.
