I think the issue would be getting people to find and buy games.
Unless it has its own "store"-- it will not succeed. Try finding something on Google Play.

Its very easy to find stuff on Google Play.

Just type the name or similar into the search box.

There's also a few other decent categorized generic searches based on ratings or simply 'all'.

The problem isn't a customer finding a title, its a developer finding a way to make their title stand out among the hundreds of thousands of others. But, that exists on any digital store where their is basically infinite shelf space.


It is easy to find if you know what you are looking for -- just like any on-line store.  But for this to be a true success, it will need to find a way to get the word out about game, just as you noted.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Unless you're using Onlive. Then you are playing current gen.

However, looking at other upcoming Tegra3 based games, I would actually say its better than o.g. Xbox and far closer to current gen. Maybe really high level Wii.

Just depends on the game you want to play. Mobile based games will be there as will console/PC games.

For me, this device is simply a great way to get a Google TV type device with a strong emphasis on gaming.

Slightly worse than a WiiU.

Tegra 3 is pretty powerful stuff.

You think Tegra3 is at the best levels of PS360? I was thinking best levels of Wii, but I do know the more recent games are looking spectacular.

According to Wikipedia, the newest Tegra 3 chip is a quad-core, 1.6GHZ with a 520mhz GPU utilizing 1600mhz GDDR3 memory. Throw in the 1GB of onboard RAM, and I figure you have something likely between the PS3/X360 and WiiU. Of course, that's just theoretical. I doubt anyone will utilize it as such.
