Definitively interesting, but yea, I remain skeptical, for three reasons:
- The quality of games they will be getting (although, as its hackable, you could turn it into any emulator you want I guess).
- Developing a decent game console is expensive. Really goddamn expensive, I doubt they can do it with kickstarter-funding alone, even if they got 5M from there. They will never be able to sell this for $99.
- Major gaming companies will see it as a threat and sue them for the smallest things
