Xbox One and Kinect

The Xbox One is an eighth-generation console produced by Microsoft in 2013. Early in its life, it was heavily criticised for intrusive DRM, such as always-online and lack of used game sharing. These have since been removed. Notably, this console runs on the x86 architecture, so is essentially a PC.

Emulators

Do note that just because this console runs on the same architecture as PCs does NOT mean it will be easier to emulate! Quite the opposite, in fact: for example, see Xbox, which also runs on x86. Due to being such a complex architecture [1] and undocumented hardware, it will take a VERY long time to make an emulator for it.
