Also, I'm not sure why the MSI Claw is on there but other PC handhelds aren't.

If the other handhelds didn't run windows they would be so much better.

That's unimpressive, considering it is pretty much the best in that category for now.

I also like how they specified the Steam Deck as purely portable when in reality it is just as much of a hybrid as the Nintendo Switch, yet the Switch is in a category invented just for it so that they can give Snoy the console top spot.

Lol. Why is the MSI Claw even up there? There's at least two whole other handhelds that could have been in the running and they chose the Claw?

The cynic in me says its because MSI is a sponsor or something

Wow, it did better than the only other handheld (est. 2017)? Thats surprising.
