Asus unveiled the device at the Cebit trade show in Hanover, where it demonstrated games and a fitness application called "MayaFit Cardio Lite". A computer-generated instructor on the screen showed exercises the viewer was meant to follow, while the motion-sensing system allowed feedback on how well they were being performed.
PrimeSense, the Israeli company that worked with Microsoft on the Kinect system, was Asus's partner in developing Wavi Xtion.
Asus is hoping to have the system out in May. A price has yet to be announced, but Wavi Xtion will almost immediately go into competition with Microsoft's Kinect.
ASUS is about to announce a new generation of gaming handheld, and spoiling the announcement are photos from official FCC certification.
The grips makes it look similar to my switch with Nyxi joycons attached.

That looks nice. I like the GameCube style joycons, I don't know why people downvote, if it's not their taste just leave the post as is. MP remastered a masterpiece I have it myself to. I bought the Hori Split Pad Pro, they are pretty good.
This looks absolutely beautiful. It demonstrates that Microsoft has a vision for where gaming should be going. Sadly I fear that Sony with its cloud-only PS Portal machine will be left behind in the dust. These are the closing days of the PS5 era.
Cloud only PS Portal? It's a £200 streaming device. It has two jobs remote play from a ps5 and stream from the cloud noting else. It's essentially a accessory.
This Microsoft/Asus handheld is a handheld pc that's going to be £400+. How you can compare it to a streaming accessory I don't know lol. Microsoft/Asus really need to do something incredible with this. As we are currently at a time where everyone seems to be releasing a new handheld gaming pc on a daily basis.
Dunno about anyone else but the cloud streaming on the portal is absolutely awesome and a device under 200. And once beta is finished 1000+ games to stream instantly. This is gonna be priced 500+ minimum, to still stream gamepass games. That's an odd comparison with the portal
You realise this is a portable gaming PC right it's not a console capable of playing Xbox games.
It's a rog ally with a Xbox skin and more power
So in your mind outselling your competitor by more than double while just releasing the Pro Model are signs of the closing days for the PS5 huh ? On what planet ate you living ?
While I agree (for now) the sony era of old has run it's course. The PS portal is a solid device and if sony has shown anything in the past, it's they can make top tier handheld consoles.
Please keep your mouth shut. Thank you.
Also: it looks hideous with a cheap looking build quality
Omg, I took a screenshot of this comment to keep it forever in my archive of "most delusional comments ever". Gongrats, you deserve eternity.
Damn!! It 's ugly as hell!!!I MS gave them some advices on design side... it is thiiiick.
I'll stay with the first one much better design.
It won't outsell the PlayStation Portal.
PlayStation Portal Sales Surge: Nearly 2 Million Units Sold So Far in 2024
https://newfortech.com/tech...
Steam Deck has sold about 4 million units in the three years since its release, dominating 50% of the handheld gaming PC market
https://gigazine.net/gsc_ne...
I would be willing to bet it sells significantly less units than the ROG Ally 2 it's based off.
Portal and this are two different products.
One is a streaming accessory whilst the other is a standalone portable PC with an Xbox branding and buttons.
FYI, this is not the bespoke Xbox handheld that'd be part of Xbox's next-gen console lineup of 2027.
This, Project Keenan, is supposedly just a collab with Asus to produce an Xbox branded Ally 2.
So, why aren't you telling that to VenomUK?
No one cares about this thing, it's just a ROG Ally with green LED's and a Xbox button which will probably cost more than the base ROG Ally because of Microsoft licensing fee's.
You can get mad at the negative comparison to the Portal, but I stand by my statement and still think that it won't outsell the base ROG Ally.
Replies(1)Combined sales of all pc portables only equals 6 million so if steamdeck is at 4 million safe to say ROG is under 2 million sold to date
Explore the upcoming RTX 50 Series GPUs, including RTX 5090, 5080, and 5070 TI from ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, Palit, and Zotac.
Did ASUS just hint that a black version of their ROG Ally handheld PC may be on the way?
It should be cheaper than Kinect, as it does not include the motor or mic. If succesful, should bring the price for Kinect down faster and force competitive developement in 3D gesture tech.
Wavi Xtion? What the hell?
It sure looks interesting.
