I just saw this when looking through E3 coverage.

This is quite a concept. I like it. I have never heard of this before though so I am a bit skeptical.

But why? Because lack of big name support or titles? I think this could find a niche. Its kind of like a Roku box for games. If they can get some emulator apps up (they already have a couple SNES ones) and an easy way to use ROMs this could be great.

I don't think it will do anything better than any current platform, heck may even include cellphones in that.

Oh yea I don't expect it to compete with PS4 or XBox. Good comparison to cell phones though, that is probably their bigger competitor.

Pretty good launch day. http://news.cnet.com/8301-10797_3-57590 ... -gamestop/

I think it needs a few more standard apps like Netflix and Hulu and it could find itself a spot in my basement as a nice media center device.
