It happened to the PS3




The PS3 was weird. It had a unique architecture that made it especially useful for HPC in an era before GPUs were useful for that purpose. The CPU and GPU in the Steam Machine are not particularly high-end.

And I think that was part of the reason it was one of the last consoles sold for a loss.
