crap

They want a MILLION dollars to produce something that will be around the same price as a second hand Xbox 360, and that does about the same thing, but doesn't have any games yet.  Oh where did I put my wallet?

*edit* if this succeeds, we should start a kickstarter to buy Hudson back from Konami.

Well, it's an android- so doesn't it technically already have whatever games are made for that?

And also, it's at $500,000?  wtf?

You do realize, right, that the 360 cost several BILLION dollars (ie: several thousand times as much) to produce, right?

That's what I was thinking.

Still, plenty of phones out there with hdmi out and bluetooth compatibility. Maybe they were stoned when they thought it up....I dunno.

Don't forget to follow up that class act up with some auto-erotic asphyxiation.

I think that it's interesting that it's totally hackable, that could lead to maybe some PCE stuff on it eventually.  That might be cool, my Turbo CD has been having problems.  Hmm, maybe someone could even come up with a hucard port for it?  Also, unfortunately, I get the feeling that someday, phones will have games that are good, & can't be had anywhere else.  There's a market for it, I just don't want to play games on phones.  If everything resorts to that crap, atleast we may have a console to play these games on.  Heck, maybe we'll finally get new Falcom games playable on a console, rather then just on a portable. :-k

This actually has me excited even though it has Android attached to it. If the they give me games that are controller-only (no motion controls, no touch screen) I may bite.
