Will Microsoft make their own Nintendo Switch handheld?

Change Nintendo finally released this week and shows another portable gaming console of the Japanese giants.

However, even though Sony has had a portable gaming chip with PSP and PS Vita, Microsoft has strangely never entered the handheld race.

With Xbox boss Phil Spencer carving a bit of time to do some Q & A fans on Twitter, Spencer was asked. "I'm curious why the Xbox has never jumped in the notebook market to bring more competition to Sony and Nintendo."

"I'm curious why the Xbox has never jumped in the notebook market to bring more competition to Sony and Nintendo." Xbox users asked.

In response, Spencer explained why we never see any kind of portable Xbox platform and this is supposedly because Microsoft believes that "phones carry almost the entire market for mobile games."

With Nintendo once again pushing another handheld device into the market next week, it should be noted that Spencer certainly did not think the game is a fruitless efforts laptop and they are praised Nintendo, saying another fan:

"I like what Nintendo with its HW [hardware], provided the pressure on the agreements. It is good for the industry.

However, as it turns out, Microsoft has taken into account, finally, make a hand again.



A few months earlier, Robbie Bach, a former Xbox director, has shared some interesting ideas about Microsoft's main thinking process for mobile games.

In an interview with IGN, Bach said that Microsoft had made big plans for a portable device "on several occasions."

The idea was even taking into account the strange nickname 'Xboy'.

Supposedly, the planning unit reaches the early stages, with Bach IGN saying there were "definitely drawings" of an Xbox portable.

However, Microsoft has chosen not to push on the blueprints, but the reason had nothing to do with the "mobile phone market," as Phil Spencer suggested.

According to the former Xbox director, the reason the company has never entered the laptop market is because Microsoft "could not concentrate" when it is finished plans.
