The Xbox One is a home video game console developed by Microsoft.

Announced in May 2013, it is the successor to the Xbox 360 and the third console in the Xbox family, and was released in North America, Europe (in some countries), Australia, and Brazil in November 2013, and in Japan, China, and other European countries in September 2014.

It is the first Xbox game console to be released in China, specifically in the Shanghai Free-Trade Zone.

Microsoft marketed the device as an "all-in-one entertainment system".

The Xbox One mainly competes against consoles such as Sony's PlayStation 4 and Nintendo's Wii U as part of the eighth generation of video game consoles.

The PlayStation 4 (abbreviated as PS4) is a home video game console developed by Sony Computer Entertainment.

Announced as the successor to the PlayStation 3 during a press conference on February 20, 2013, it was launched on November 15 in North America, November 29 in Europe, South America and Australia, and February 22, 2014, in Japan.

It competes with Nintendo's Wii U and Microsoft's Xbox One, as part of the eighth generation of video game consoles.

The Nintendo Switch is the seventh major home video game console developed by Nintendo.

Known in development as the NX, it was unveiled in October 2016, and was released worldwide on March 3, 2017.

Nintendo considers the Switch a "hybrid" console; it is designed primarily as a home console, with the main unit inserted onto a docking station to connect to a television.

Alternatively, it can be removed from the dock and used similarly to a tablet computer through its LCD touchscreen, or placed in a standalone tabletop mode playable by several people.

The Switch's most distinguishable features are the Joy-Con wireless controllers, which include standard buttons and a directional joystick for user input, motion sensing, and high-definition tactile feedback.

The Joy-Con can attach to both sides of the console to support handheld-style play, connect to a Grip accessory to provide a traditional home console gamepad form, or be used individually in the hand like the Wii Remote.

The Switch supports both physical flash ROM cartridges and digital content for games and software, and does not use region locking.

A video game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device such as a TV screen or computer monitor.

The word video in video game traditionally referred to a raster display device, but as of the 2000s, it implies any type of display device that can produce two- or three-dimensional images.

Some theorists categorize video games as an art form, but this designation is controversial.

A trailer (also known as a preview or coming attraction) is an advertisement or a commercial for a feature film that will be exhibited in the future at a cinema, the result of creative and technical work.

The term "trailer" comes from their having originally been shown at the end of a feature film screening.

That practice did not last long, because patrons tended to leave the theater after the films ended, but the name has stuck.

Trailers are now shown before the film begins.
