I’d say the last big “revolutionizing” thing in gaming was the release of the Nintendo Switch in 2017. All of the current handhelds owe their success to the Switch.

You… you do realize we were handheld gaming long before the Switch, right? Game Boy, Game Gear, Sega Nomad, GBA, NDS, 3DS, plus emulation handhelds have been around since the early 2010s, and I’ve personally been gaming with 7" and 8" tablets with telescopic controllers since 2013. How exactly do all current handhelds owe their success to the Switch?
