Is it normal that i want to start a gaming console brand?

I've had this thought recently, of creating a console brand to try to compete with Nintendo, Xbox and Playstation. It sounds like a fun project. What do you think of this idea?

    I am a graphic designer and have done a lot of branding projects. It is extremely important to have a point of difference in your console. Maybe you could favor indie games. Idk. Either way, I don't think it's impossible, but set yourself apart.

    (p.s. if you need branding just uhhh lmk)

    I think you’d need a huge team, an absurd amount of capital for start up, and far more skill than you likely possess to do that.

    “Might go try and put xbox out of business on the weekend”

    “Oh, that’s nice dear”

    *goes back to reading the paper

    The system is the easy part. Getting good games for it and people to buy it is the hard part

    You basically just have to have enough money to convince gaming companies to put their games on your hardware. The issue is that Playstation and Xbox are slowly buying up the exclusivity rights to a bunch of games.

    It's also hard to come up with a unique name.

    Theyre basically just little computers with their very own operating systems

        The games is the hardest part. You gotta buy rights to the games. Unless you sold it as a pc gaming computer.

          Or you grab some free videogame ideas from the denizens of IIN.
