Kindle Fire will definitely sell like hot cakes. The question is will they take a substantial portion of Apple's market share?
Retro gaming console emulator apps are now welcome on the Apple App Store and can even offer downloadable games.
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.
Ah, so anything that can play Angry Birds is a gaming platform now. Noted.
What the heck does it have to do with PS Vita and PSP?
It's becoming pathetic. Anything that can play a simple flash game, or shallow pointless app, is suddenly a "gaming handheld" rather than a device that can play simple games.
There is a clear distinction, and it really needs to be made. Look at the actual gaming handhelds, yes, they may have features outside of their core scope, but they don't pretend to be anything other than gaming handhelds with some additional features.
It is ridiculous.
Bad news for sony and nintendo
Amazon's tablet is a step back for Android regardless of how many units it sold. The damn thing is under powered, uses an outdated version of the OS and funnel its users into a closed ecosystem that goes against Android open market system.
