Yeah, a console should just be a prebuilt PC with a controller friendly interface. So something like current handheld PCs, like Ayaneo or Steam Deck, but perhaps with a stronger focus on UX, game tuning, etc. If I want to reuse my PS6 as a PC, that should be totally feasible.
It was doable with the PS3 and then they took it away
Looks like Steam Machines might make a comeback
Seems weirdly doable with the Xbox Whatever They Called This One. Unless I'm misremembering the maniacs whose officially-enabled homebrew was Bochs emulating Windows 98.
