I am surprised how deeply rooted Macromedia flash was.

For a console browser to chug Flash is impressive.

Flash was on a bunch of mobile platforms, just not iOS. When it became clear that Apple were going to take a sizeable chunk of the market and were never going to support it, Adobe decided to cut their losses: https://web.archive.org/web/20111116013328/http://blogs.adob...

		IIRC Android gave up on Flash after iOS and before Adobe's announcement

Well back in the day, if you wanted to provide some interactive experience worth having on the web, you did it Flash.

It fits entirely to be supported on consoles.

I remember trying to browse a Flash build promo website for Transformers 2 on my PSP (what a 2009 sentence) and it wouldn't load. I was quite disappointed.
