Meet the Zeebo. The "4th console"
« on: March 24, 2009, 05:17:08 PM »


-$199 price tag.
-Electronic Arts, Capcom, THQ, Gameloft, Glu, and Namco Networks will be the first developers to release a limited number of games on the system.
- The target market for the device will be Russia, Brazil, India and China, the so-called "Next Billion" markets. Or as they're better known dirty poor countries.

Quote
The console will be fully operated by network entity through 3G or Edge, hence, the player will be able to buy and download the games, which will be transferred through downloads using a virtual currency, (Z-Credits) purchased by bank transfer, credit card, bank debit or prepaid cards, similar to the canceled Phantom. According to Tectoy, which established a partnership with Claro to provide the data-only 3G network, the user will be always connected to the wireless network without any fee. The console was developed by 12 companies, mainly Qualcomm and Tectoy.

So are they going to be available only in those regions? I'd totally trade my current shit-gen systems for that.

Apparently in the countries they're targeting, a new "current gen" console goes for like $1000 USD.  I can see it taking off if it's more convenient/cheap to get games for than a modded PS2.
