Devs also need to consider if they want to port stuff to a different architecture.
It all boils down to whether or not porting to the platform is going to make you a buck.
Apple is now basically telling devs, don’t port to the Mac, port and build for iPhone 15 hardware and up. It’s not going to run Cyberpunk max out, but it’s beefier than a Switch, connects to displays and PS / Xbox controllers out of the box, and iOS has an installed base that dwarfs consoles.
And if you port to the iPhone, moving that game to other Apple silicon devices is easy.
