Maybe it’s because it’s unusual to measure game consoles in tonnes (in the media) that we look for another explanation.
And I knew a tonne (1000kg) to be "t", this capital T is new to me. I just checked wikipedia apparently there’s a fuckton of different tons.

The main issue with rare earths is extracting them. It's very polluting and labor intensive.
China sells them so cheap it doesn't make economic sense for most countries to extract them, but there are locations with high concentrations all over the world.
