People keep on saying stuff like this like these games are all people care about. Meanwhile Silksong sales crippled stores. Indy games and older games are hugely popular. I don't know a single person who plays these games that don't work. My kids friend group is playing on cobbled together hand me downs and half broken laptops and can't play AAA titles.

They will sell millions of these things. People who demand a 5090 and Windows 11 to play games are the true niche. Everyone else is having too much fun to care.
