That is
A) Some beefy cooling for a little streamer, and
2) Proves Thunderbolt 3 can work on ARM, with regard to in house mac CPUs...

I think Apple should pursue more game developers for this. Would people buy it as a console, no, but if they're going to get a high end streamer anyways, a nice microconsole would be a welcome bonus.
This is easily above the 7th gen and even the Switch in raw power, and the latter can run a recent AAA like Doom. The wand controller requirement is gone and they sell controllers in-store.
 
Hm, they may have gotten a bit too eager, I think that's actually just a regular ethernet adaptor that happens to sometimes go in Thunderbolt dongles.
