You skipped over the biggest handheld PC maker of all. Valve with Steam Deck.
But once again, all of those are PC’s. They’re not game consoles and thus none of them restrict what you can put on them.

Nah man I think the market here is way too big to not win if there’s a vacuum.
What vacuum? Almost all games are cross platform. Portable and non portable is covered. Where’s a vacuum?
