Nathan Strum 12,161 Posted January 24, 2014 I can see that happening. If they put the same A7 chip in it as their current-gen iPads, and make it so it can run existing games from the app store (using an iPhone or iPad as a controller), it would make for a nifty, dirt-cheap game console. Just throw enough memory in it so it will load the game you currently want to play from your computer, iPad or iCloud. Mirroring from an iDevice right now doesn't quite work because of the lag (even their HDMI adapters are just converting AirPlay to HDMI), so you really can't play iGames on your HDTV. This would be a cost-effective way to do it, and no adapters or wires. Keep the price at $99, and they'd have a winner. Not something to compete with PS4 or XBone, but just a nice extra for those already entrenched in the iEcosystem. I'd buy one. Quote Link to comment
