Maker of one of the first gaming consoles on the video game industry Intellivision is making another console after almost 40 years from the first one.
One of the founding members of the Xbox team has questioned Microsoft’s multiplatform gaming strategy, and said they believe the Xbox hardware business is effectively “dead"
Replies(3)Think that rumor that they'll still make a new console but at a profit at $1000 will be true though. The series consoles will remain their cheap alternative throughout next gen I would say. Keep in mind that game pass and pretty much going 3rd party is their main focus. They want to bring xbox everywhere.
If they don't maintain some kind of console presence, I think they will lose gamepass subscribers and just become a 3rd party publisher who eventually sells everything off
Xbox games are releasing on all platforms. Who needs this hardware? PS or PC is all you need
Even if they could get it down to $800 for a box that can run with comparable performance to a PS6 (at, say $200 cheaper) the population of people willing to buy such a thing would be so limited.
It would be the worst of both worlds.
Hardware manufacturer Moza debuted several new hardware peripherals for flight simulation at FlightSimExpo 2025.
As consoles go, the SNES has quite the family friendly image. But, just like a Pizza Hut when you look at its hygiene rating or taste its pizza or breathe inside a restaurant, it’s not always good for everyone.
hahahaha
god i had so much trouble with those damn fking birds, monkeys and giraffes haha
The golden age. No ESRB*. No ratings at all. It was glorious.
*I know the ESRB was formed by the industry to prevent others from stepping in and taking control.
Interesting on ESRB. “ The industry, pressured with potential government oversight of video game ratings from these hearings, established both the IDSA and the ESRB within it to create a voluntary rating system based on the Motion Picture Association film rating system with additional considerations for video game interactivity.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/...
Is that how the industry isn’t required to offer consumers a transferable digital token to sell games they no longer play or maybe don’t like? And then treat us all like pirates? That’s how the government is not involved, they had to placate the situation to avoid oversight.

I don't think those words, cobbled together in that order, mean what Intellivision think they mean.
This doesn’t sounds good. It looks like one of those stupid 500 crappy games for 9.99 at Walgreens toys.2D and all games kid friendly exclusive and games are 3-7 dollars(like that’s a good thing)I can just have my kids play my Super Nintendo or 3DS or their tablets or laptops and have a better library . I liked my Intellivison when I was like 6 or 7 . Snafu was a cool game , most games were copies of Atari games but I did play it a lot more than my Atari after awhile though I don’t remember any of the games names besides Snafu. Nintendo came out a few years later and I never played it again after that.
2 years out? Seems too early for an announcement like this.
It's about time!
Good luck to them. I hope they can produce great games for their intended audience.
