Russian President Vladimir Putin announces plans for a series of homegrown consoles, following previous sanctions that limited sales of Western ones.
With which chips exactly, Vlad? You’re scraping processors out of washing machines for your weapons.
Russia actually does produce their own CPUs:
Edit: Likely Chinese fabs, but point was that they are producing them… just ~half are defective products
They’re not really high tech though.
It’ll probably be a shanzhai Steam Deck clone, made largely if not entirely in Shenzhen, with a version of Linux modified to not run unapproved games (and to allow the FSB to monitor any subversive activities). Also, it’ll probably be hacked within two weeks, disabling the surveillance features and making it run a full complement of warez and emulators.
With blackjack. And hookers.

more competition is always good.
In Soviet Russia, video game control you!
