Do you think apple should make there own Portable gaming system? Im not talking liek the iphones game apps, i mean something like the DS or PSP where its main goal is "games"

As arrogant and hard headed as apple is i wouldnt mind seeing what they could do.

Sure, Aplle could make a handheld. But you'd be paying over $1000 for a less powerful system the either of the 2 already released. But whatever, it's your money...

The new iPHONE 3G/S is more powerful than the DS, The PSP not so much.

*EDIT: Wow, ferret gamer enlightened me, It is "about" double the power if the PSP!

LOL, no. Apple has always been absolutely horrible at gaming. It's not that their machines couldn't run games. It was that their machines got very few games. Anyone remember the 80's when if you were stuck with an Apple II (e, c, gs), then you missed out on all the cool games that the IBM PC's and Commodor 64's got? I do. Apple is not friendly to gaming. It never has been.

The iPod Touch isn't a gaming device. It's a portable computer.

It will be a white glossy system that costs $300 and will break perfectly in time for the next models release.

True, but right now PSP games look much better than iPhone games because of the massive OS running in the background. You have to admit that the PSP was a very impressive piece of hardware back in '04.

it wasn't too bad. i agree the iphone is limited by the OS, with the right developers the nokia maemo devices can shine in gaming, the n900 can run quake 3 arena and other desktop games since it has a true linux operating system, not a crippled mobile one like the others.

Who needs an Apple gaming platform when you have OnLive?
