I don't see a mass appeal in this thing at all. Sure it's a cool idea for gamers but it will be a flop in the long run if they decided to sell it. 

I agree. I don't understand where the market is. Is this the handheld console for the people who play fpses and whatnot? I don't think this will catch. I'd like to fiddle around with one because it's interesting, but ... yeah.

One question - who will sell it? Cause if it's Android only, you buy games online. The last time I checked there wasn't a single store in the world interested in giving shelf space to consoles that didn't allow them to earn money on retail games.
Plus the whole idea about this handheld is just so wrong in so many aspects. It's like the Vita, only all of its flaws are magnified 10 times and it doesn't even have the Playstation magic or exclusive games to fall back on.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

Seriously, I mean, that's the reason no stores sell android tablets or I-pads, right?  It also already has a much larger library then the Vita, and it hasn't even launched yet.
