> Notably, the judge rejected both parties’ definition of the marketplace at issue in the case. “The relevant market here is digital mobile gaming transactions, not gaming generally and not Apple’s own internal operating systems related to the App Store,” Gonzalez-Rogers wrote.

I guess the question is does Mobile gaming cover handheld game device like Switch? If so, it may impact Steam Deck as well.

This has more interesting implications for Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft consoles.
