Imagine if Apple announced a game console at E3

I was wondering to myself: If Apple announced a game console at E3, what would it be like? Well first of all, Apple likes thin, small devices, which would make a powerful console hard to make. Look at all of Apple products and see how obsessed Apple is about how thin and light their products are. MacBook is thin, MacBook Air is thin, iMac is thin, Mini Mac is so small it fits in your hand, the iPhone is thin, all iPods are thin, light and tiny. You get the picture.

So now, Apple makes a console and announces it at E3. Guess what? Its the thinnest console EVAR! It fits inside an envelope (Come on, don't tell me you don't care about your console fitting inside an envelope. We all know that this is incredibly important). Steve Jobs won't even bother talking about what games are out on it. He won't talk about what online service it offers. He will only talk about how thin it is. It is so thin you can place it anywhere around your TV, it has a clean design and has no annoying latches to get stuck on your clothes.

What are your thoughts? If Apple announced a game console at E3, what would your reaction be and what would you expect to see from it?

it would be a shame and not taken seriously, we dont need another system that only has exclusives, etc.

. . .sadly i am aloyal Apple fan and customer and would buy it anyways!

[QUOTE="Arsenal325"]yes apple.. thats what i would love.. a 2000 dollar game consolePandaBear86

But hey - it fits inside an envelope, so its worth it :P

hmm.. you do make a great point

it would be a horrible flop because it would have like two games from aspyr.

I did not create this thread to test my comedian skills, so I don't care if its not funny. I wanted to see what other people think of what an Apple console would be like.

I dont believe that at all, you made so many slim jokes. Yeah it would be small but you werent trying to make that point after the 3rd or 4th time you mentioned it

All your bases are belong to us.

It's the Ibox, any type of controller is to complicated it's just a box. It's motto would be:

"Play it?"

you forgot the mac pro that is one huge tower

Maybe they would be better at making a portable system?

Seeing as theyre good at making small and sleek portable devices why not

They are good at marketing. VERY good at marketing mind you, but thats the extent of their powers.

Wow you don't have to be rude about it, gosh.. he wasn't trying to make a joke and even if you did you should have just left it as that...

The console would be white and small like the Wii is my guess. And instead of Nicole Kidman, Paris Hilton will be Apple's new face. While I personally disgust this kind of marketing, its very effective with sheeple consumers.

If they can sort out Mac gaming then maybe. Until then they should stick to what they know.

generaly all people can say about apple is that they are overpriced and they suck.

people don't know anything. they just shout random stuff based on rndom stuff other people shouted before.

Always-Honest

I have to agree that the stuff is overpriced, particularly for the hardware. The OS is very decent but I don't think it's worth the price they're asking (£400 for budget range).
