I think it's fine how it is this gen. I think a 4th console would be overkill.

Apple console would destroy all. Not that they'd ever do it, but they'd kill at it.

It started the Sonic series...

Anyway, the Atari Jaguar wasn't a live, breathing feline also...

Consoles were named back than to sound cool I guess.

I think the market is crowded with 3 consoles, so there will probably not be a 4th. But I'd love Sega to get back in the fight. Or how about ATARI?

they called it the genesis because there was already a patent for "megadrive" in the US

they probably called it genesis because sega didn't even had any offices in the US at the time, so it did begin something

Imo in a perfect world MS would cancel it's entry into next gen at the last minute after Sony already has all there competitive pricing in place and all that and just go back to PC gaming. Just Nintendo for the younger crowd and Sony for the mature crowd. MS should just go represent the PC imo, they used to be great at that and on consoles they suck.

There will be a 4th console. I know that Microsoft and Sony will make them. But I think it would be out in 2014. The graphics would look like Final Fantasy Advent Children. This is just my guess.

I seriously think Sega might team up with EA to make a console. EA have stated they are interested in joining the console market and Sega have stated that as well. Than there is also APPLE.

Did you mean OnLive? I thought of it, but who knows if it'll take off. It has potential but I guess it'll be dependent upon the performance and the pricing if anyone will take it seriously.

Only if they name it something with "I" in it. That way all the uneducated people would be hook line and sinker.

eww an apple console... i would only get it if it had some of the ps3 or 360 games switch over to it... but dang would that suck. i like the 3 how they are already. but really if nintendo would make a dedicated online service and some sexy xbox/ps3 type graphics now that would pwn.

No. It would mean cheaper games. Would it not? Nobody says you need to buy all of the systems.

I highly doubt Apple would release a home console in lieu of 360, PS3 or Wii. Their track record thus far shows that they like to severely differentiate itself from any competitors in new markets they jump in. In my opinion, I believe they might try to infiltrate the Game Industry stealthily using the iPad as a trojan horse. It kind of makes sense. An accelerometer, multi-touch controlled 10 inch portable TV screen with blue-tooth local play or WiFi online :shrug:

i bought one of those to play my old nes games on. it worked pretty well. but after a few game switches the 72 pin got stuck to the cart and it came out of the system. it was like they glued it inside of there lol
