I'm going to be honest, for that price and all that hardware, this actually looks pretty promising. But I'm probably going to wait and see what Microsoft and Sony fire back with. If they do push the date back into next year, hopefully they can develop some pretty neat games for this.

This is kinda old but yeah, can't wait for 100$ controllers with 2hours long battery life.

[crazy.neo]

Just wait for E3, it will be playable there.

[slashfan7964]

Ya I was gonna say E3 in June will probably have a ton on this. I just posted this for anyone that didn't know about it.


@RedShadow

Oh ya. Cool concept, but I think they'd need a better battery.

What if it's not. They could just announce it and show a few trailers just to get you interested.

Nintendo has confirmed it will be playable.

Nintendo said it was playable and open to everyone at E3 to play.

>Full 1080p capable

I sure ducking hope it's native 1080p. Current gen systems care barely even do 720p without shiitting a brick

I didn't pay attention to the "playable console" part.

Also, those controllers better have a wired version or else I ain't buying sh*t.
of course I will but still, it would be nice

I'll almost bet to say that it will be similar to the way the PS3's setup for controllers are, with the cable for charging/playing, while staying wireless when a charge isn't needed.

[RedShadow]

Sounds logical. Hopefully that's how it works.

Nothing confirmed. Just rumors...
The question is, Do u rike it?

[Rapt0r]

>The player cannabis move their fingertips...

wat

[slashfan7964]

That's what I was thinking.


I think that the name of Stream would have sounded better than Feel personally but its there system, do what you will with it. It's just going to be awkward walking up to a friend and sya "Hey dood, I just bought a Feel! A WHAT???".

[Rapt0r]

Feel and Stream are both terrible.

[RedShadow]

Well that's retarded.

This one is actually translated correctly... I think.

-------------------
I wouldn't mind the console being called Project Cafe... or just Cafe.
