Ok and? What’s your point?

I’m just saying there’s not much competition in the handheld space. Either you have massively popular products with an extensive history or extremely niche devices. The handheld PC market is still fairly nascent and Steam Deck dominating it and popularizing it so much (even if it’s not that much compared to, say, the Switch) is still significant.

Small as in not a lot of competitors…

Success in indie development tends to be very uncertain though. Unless you end up at an established indie studio with a good track record but it’s not like indie studios hire in droves.

Mfer really took “play anywhere” to heart.

The whole handheld gaming market is pretty small. There’s the Switch which outsold the last couple gens of Xboxes and PlayStations. Good luck beating that. Besides that you have smartphones which just about everyone owns and only a handful of brands being especially popular. Then you have dedicated Android having handhelds and handheld emulation machines which are extremely niche.

So either you’re looking at extremely popular and widely owned handheld devices with extensive histories and customer loyalty or extremely niche devices. Not really a great comparison.
