Three side remarks about China, which can be a peculiar example to compare to for Russia, maybe even any other country:

  • They actually banned consoles for a quite significant 15 years (2000–2015), which strongly tilted their market towards PC.
  • Their companies actively make PC-type gaming handhelds, and many of them are even well-established in the business ahead the current “Steam Deck” wave/bandwagon: GPD (once called GamePad Digital, first release in 2016), OneXPlayer (2020), Ayaneo (2021).
  • Chinese gaming companies are quite at the whim of the censorship, and occasional “crackdowns” out of the blue, and many have therefore reoriented themselves for an international audience to de-risk their business.
