Surely a claim like that should mean that's the performance of the majority of popular games on the device?

How do you define the majority of popular games though? You could probably cherry pick a definition that proved anything!

"10 most sold games last year"

Of course it's necessarily cherry picked but it doesn't mean it cannot be representative

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Most sold isn't most popular though, don't the currently-played charts always include old, free, low-requirements games like Counter Strike?

Don't forget Stardew Valley and Factorio
