gizmodo.com Mike Fazioli 2025-09-17 03:10:04

The same thing that makes Windows gaming handhelds desirable also holds them back. It's never been the hardware.

The culprit has always been Windows. It simply isn't an operating system designed for a dedicated gaming handheld, and that needs to change. Of course, we'd all love the Xbox Ally to
