The handheld game system was unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, and it could spell more bad news for the Sony Vita, Nintendo 3DS or any other entry in the mobile gaming market. Why? Because it further stretches how consumers can buy and experience video games.
Besides being a complete standalone Android gaming system, the chunky controller can also stream games that have already been loaded on a Windows PC, providing users are sharing the same Wi-Fi router and the computer is equipped with a recent Nvidia graphics processor (specifically a Kepler-based GeForce GTX 650 or better). Even hard-core gamers take breaks, right?
So now you can carry your game of Assassins Creed around the house with you. Other features include a set of standard game controls and 5- to 10-hour rechargeable batteries. The stand-alone mode is based on the Jelly Bean version of the Android operating system. An Nvidia representative promised that it was "pure , unfiltered Android that can run anything you can download from the Google Play app store."
Games that have been modified for gamepads and fiveinch landscape displays will work better. One cannot help but notice the potential of this device for playing videos or music, thanks to the clear screen and speakers that are much better than average.
Nvidia promises an SD card slot, but will not say how much internal storage the device has. Also up in the air are the final name and the price. All of that will be determined by late spring, which is the earliest consumers will be able to buy one.
Very informative and worthy post. Thanks for the sharing such a precious updates with us.
