That's just my opinion.

i wouldnt buy it because if the system crashes you are screwed unless you kept all your previous systems

Yeah, it is an excellent deal. I mean I already spent about that much on the consoles I have of this generation alone.

And yeah, technically if you have a very good PC they probably already come close, through emulator, etc, to that, but you have a lot of bother and it would cost you more.

Don't bother. You wouldn't get the rights for it, it would likely cost you too much to ever make a profit, and it won't be that interesting more in 2014.

A positive form of "life" and "WOW" do not belong in the same sentence...unless you're being sarcastic.

Also, I'd like to point out that neither nintendo, sony, or microsoft would ever consent to letting their media systems be combined into one superconsole.

The licensing costs alone would set you way back, you'd end up spending more than $1k to put it together, so you'd have to sell it for even more than that.

Oh how I miss the days of Atari when game companies would all make their consoles compatible with all the other consoles made by other companies...

One Free Man
Also, you can probably get all the components required to do this for cheaper than 1000 dollars separately.

BackFire
I already own all those systems, so no.

Didn't Nintendo almost partner with Sony and MS at one point or another...but....due to Nintendo's stupidly/arrogance, they both left and did their own thing? (not at the same time...but similar situations...)

BackFire
Yeah, the original Playstation was originally going to be an add on for the Super Nintendo, but the idea fell through and so Sony just made their own system.

We are in the ultimate gaming system, yes we are in the Matrix!!

chomperx9
i heard that this might be the last year for the video game developers to release games on the ps2. cause sony wants everyone to move up on to the next gen platform.

what would be best is if they put the hardware back in their PS3 systems to make it backwards compatibale again for PS2 games but that costs them alot of money but more people will buy them then

Eon Blue
I'd buy it.

No, at $1000 you are in fact above entry level gaming PC prices, and a good gaming pc will do all of these and more.

Last I heard, PS2 games were still outselling their PS3 versions. Sony would be moronic to stop releasing titles on it, imho. It will shift market share to nintendo, if anything.

Maybe if their PSP was a decent alternative...

Nope It sounds like your describing a modded ps3 with linux or windows installed using a lot of emulators minus the 360, wii ,and cd cleaner

i know, $1000? it's still less than what you spend on your own weekly food intake Bardock but still. It's a hell of a deal.

he should what until the new next gen consoles come out late next year to make the device so he can integrate those systems into the machine, as well. the new price still won't match your grocery bills but who cares. you'd have this one-in-all machination.

It already exist. There's corporate gaming systems for game developers that play basically any game on the market. Granted, they're not sold to the public.

Microsoft has also always produced consoles at a loss. This machine, at that price point, would require a huge flow of cash already, and even at other prices, would require it to even be competitive.

http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/nov2005/tc20051122_410710.htm

X-Box as a full live service, console, games, brand, etc does turn profit when a big game is coming out or something similar, but consoles alone are generally produced at a loss.

new titles

so, the PS2 has an install base of 100m people (1), which the PS3 is nowhere near. Add to this, the PS2 is still outselling the PS3 (2). A new title that is released on both systems will sell more on the PS2 because of this and the fact that the game is cheaper.

For christmas I got a Gateway quadcore, 8 gig ram, etc for around 900 Canadian

shopping online for components, you could put together something much more dedicated to gaming for a similar price that would do essentially everything described minus the motion control on wii games.

How would you get current PS3, 360 and Wii games to run smoothly? And where would you get them? Do you have a PS2 emulator, btw? If so, does that run smoothly?

most major games have a PC version

I do not know of a PS2 emulator. Though, the effort to develop proper emulation software for newer game systems would be much less difficult that developing hardware to read all games from all systems (including cartridge), and would likely be easier to have the companies agree to, if they even have control of emulation software distribution in that way...

Alright that is a different point though. You were saying you could get a PC that does that for cheaper, I'd disagree.

I think the deal as he described it, is pretty good, I would probably take it, that it is ridiculous is true though.

I don't think it is that different, but ok, you can get a PC that plays the vast majority of games on the current market, has greater backward compatability, with better hardware, internet capability, social networking and other non-game related bonuses for less than you could get this item, even in the hypothetical situation.

For $1000 I'd take another computer over the machine. If a computer wasn't an option, then yes, I'd say it is a good buy.

The point was different cause you said it would be less effort to develope proper emulation than to build hardware to do it, which I agree with, it's just unrelated to whether it would be better for the customer to get a PC or his proposed system.

I also don't disagree that a high end computer might be a better investment, but if I didn't have a PS3 and 360 already I would definitely consider it, even now, that I do have that as well as some older consoles, I am wonderin whether I would get such a magical machine. My reasoning is really that having all those systems in one machine would be incredibly useful. And although most of the current games would work on a PC just as well or better, I even have problems with my SNES Roms on my PC now, I don't think that an emulator (of any console really) would come close even on a 1000$ machine. Of course you could consider the other things it does, but that really depends on what you want to do.

this should be in the gaming forum.

Good luck getting the corporations to allow you to develop such a system, they'd be put out of business by hardcore gamers everywhere.

Tha C-Master
It'd also hurt competition in the long run because they would feel they didn't have to try as hard.

Grinning Goku
I'd buy it. I just need about 100 days off from work to actually use the system effectively.

My comp emulates every system except PS3 and XBOX 360 (Ive yet to purchase the sensor bar to hook up to my PC to play wii games properly but I will soon) and does everything else mentioned but it would be nice if it cleaned CD's (not that I use them Daemon Tools FTW).

Pretty basic economics, a monopoly could charge whatever they felt like for their product which equals lose for us

where can you get working emulators for the PSone and 2 and gamecube?

Those are the only ones I've never seen functional

(I guess all the N64 ones I've seen have only been at like 80% functionality or something too)
