All video game consoles were banned in china until 2014: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/16/chinese-games-developers-eye-a-slice-of-49-billion-console-market.html

Almost no one in China has a nintendo. It very much was banned in China.

It's closer to like how VPN is banned, but a lot of ppl still use it. Or like banning porn, but lots of ppl still get around it. Or like pirating movies.

Gamers can pretty much still game if they want to. The CCP will be stricter on certain games due to either cultural or political reasons, but there are ways to get around it.
