| Intrinsic said: Don't for a second think that beacuse people "love to play on apple ipads/phones" that will in anyway translate to a successful HD home console console. The console hardware business is in no way easy, and it will make zero sense for apple to spend billions trying to get into a market that is already being torn between 3 active players. |
I don't think that Apple is even interested to offer a high end console (which competes with PS4, XBO, Steamboxes and AIO-PCs connected to the TV)... that market is not profitable enough for them. They will probably not buy or build their own game studios and pump hundreds of millions in exclusive AAA-titles.
But eventually they have to offer an alternative to cheap Android consoles and the Vita-TV... by upgrading their (already successful) Apple-TV with an 64bit A7- or A8-SoC and adding iOS-game-functionality they could do that.
