The ROG Xbox Ally is here, and while it’s not exactly a true Xbox — it’s made by Asus, not Microsoft — its marks a big moment: the entry of one of the game industry’s biggest players into the handheld market.

Meanwhile, Nintendo looks to consolidate its position and ensure its hegemony with the recently released Switch 2.
