If you want to dive deeper into hardware hacking, let me know:

Consoles succeed based on their custom silicon. Designers must balance the cost of manufacturing Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) against the processing power required for next-generation visuals. Today, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are used to recreate these custom architectures with cycle-accurate precision. 2. Memory Bandwidth Architecture manipulate PC registers

While focused on software rather than console hardware construction, André LaMothe’s "Black Art" series from the 1990s is legendary. It taught a generation of programmers how to squeeze optimum performance out of limited hardware, manipulate PC registers, and write raw assembly code—the exact skillset required by early console developers. 2. "Designing Video Game Hardware" (and Similar Texts)

Deep dives into microprocessors like the Z80 and 6502, as well as microcontrollers.
