Jobs claims that the iPod Touch alone has outsold the Nintendo DS and PSP on a worldwide basis. At the very same event, he gave us some exact numbers: Approximately 120 million iOS devices have been sold. That includes the iPhone, the iPod Touch, and the iPad in all their iterations. But a quick search on Google reveals that the Nintendo DS has sold 132 units since the first iteration was released in 2004. The PSP has sold about 60 million units. Added together--well, that's considerably more than what the iOS has sold to date.
So why go ahead and make such a sky-high claim?
Retro gaming console emulator apps are now welcome on the Apple App Store and can even offer downloadable games.
Yep most probably
Definitely infact
It’s just since apple got official dualsense support a while ago, (ios 14.5, it was 2 years ago now) I thought it useful to post here
The beaten quite a few prolific companies the past like universal so it's not unwinable
From systems that could keep your beer cool, to oddities trying to get in on the popularity of VHS and laserdisc, you’ve got some very, very weird video game consoles out there.
I had the LaserActive... it was a nice collectors piece but not very practical. Especially when it came to needing recapping. I think i paid all of about $50 for the floor model from an incredible Universe back in the day. I ended up selling it many years later for $300 at the time due to it needing a new laser and the aforementioned recapping.
An honorable mention not on the list would be the VM Labs Nuon. It basically looked like any regular DVD player but it had ports on it for controllers to play specific games. one of which is still exclusive to it with Tempest 3000. It also offered nuon enhanced DVD movies with extra content not accessible by regular players.
Epic Games winning its cases against both Apple and Google is shaping the way forward for the future of mobile gaming.
I feel alot of mobile gamers are kids which will at some point probably turn to console or pc. Mobile gaming just doesn't cut it for me.
tru dat, but i feel like it's gonna be a lot more viable for people who travel a lot or don't want to invest in a full gaming rig. Think of it as a Switch on drugs, with a LOT more room for free illegal downloads.
Funny thing is out of all the people i know with Ipods/Iphones i'm the only one i know who has gamed on it (aside from farmville, etc.) and it sucks for gaming, so lets see almost 200 million people have DS/PSP which is used primarily for gaming compared to the 120 million that own Ipods/phones/pads who mainly use them for music/phone calls....yea Jobs is talking out of his ass again.
Don't people buy a iPod mainly for Music Mr.S.Blow-Jobs? I hope he is not turning into a new Bill Gate$ :-/
It's not a new thing with Apple, they always think they invented the wheel.
And btw, Bill Gates is way better than Steve Jobs.
So much hate.
