Also even if it would be meant just for game_consoles, it has also been tagged with images which do not have console itself visible, as some talk about consoles in general to mean everything related to them:

And even anthrofied game_controller named switch_dog:

+1. In my experiences, when you call something a console, as referring to a computer, it is meant as the computer is designed for specific tasks. This makes sense as a game console is a computer for games, and nowadays this has evolved beyond simply playing games, yet is still meant to play games.
