From the makers of CD32, The AmigaCD64.... Possible?

[gizz72]

Greetings to all,
  Let's face it, the CD32 is not getting any younger. So, i'd like to make a suggestion what would be the next gen game console for our Amiga range. Feel free to add/change/delete anything, it's an idea I like to put here. I don't say this would be impossible, but it's probable. So here goes.
Drum rolls please!

  From the makers of C64 and Amiga range of computers, CDTV and CD32. We're proudly present you with the next generation gaming console!

 THE AMIGA CD64!

--------------------------
okey now the specs:
CPU: PPC G5 2.3Ghz
BUS: 64-bit custom architecture
GFX: RADEON 9xxx 128mb, VGA RCA S-VIDEO out
RAM: 255MB DDR RAM, Expandible to 2GB MB
 OS: AMIGAOS4.x to 5.0, MOS 2.x, AROS 2.x (multi os capable)
Port: 4 port USBv2.x  (need I say more?)
CDROM: A DVD 20x Drive (optional for writer,maybe expensive, ah who cares! :-D)
CNTRL: 6 button joypad, 3 button mouse.
Compatibles:  You can run emulstion of XBOX, PS1/2, C64, CDTV, CD32 classics...
GAMES: Network games, 3d shooters, awsome 2d vector gfx.
-----------------------------

I leave the rest to you. What is your system??

Happy weekend to all Amigans! :-D

@graffias

The reason why dreamcast was castaway by SEGA is probably not much user support then or management problem from their end? I don't know.
The reason I posted this thread so that (MAYBE) any company would start picking up the 'idea' so all the community(Amiga) can create a new and powerful system. Maybe the 'Holodeck+free+sex+ferrari' maybe outrageous :lol:, but who knows :idea:. MAD's post is very inteesting too 8-). But if ever such a console would be feasible, we as a community will flock and support it and will not let things like the SEGA/DREAMCAST incident or the others similar things happen to us again. It maybe my little way of lifting the FLAME up, and keep it alive. So go spread the word. I was hoping this tread would reach out all(Amiga/non-Amiga) users alike. I'm still keeping my hopes up(fingers crossed). Thanks y'all! :-D

Happy Weekend to all Amigans! :-D

Greetings,
  Given 'an average joe's peecee'parts and expandability, which however some game console lacks, i don't see it becoming expensive. IMHO the more the demands there is a better chance of it getting cheap.
  Best example of expandability is the CD32-SX1. It expands from game console into one complete computer. Options in expandability is the key. Unless otherwise.
  How about this name 'UAES: Universal Amiga Entertainment System!' 8-)
Sounds cool. What do you think?


Keep those 'IDEAS' comming! Good day to all Amigans! :-D

Just googled discovered games console.
Check this baby out here.
Eyetech must not let go of this opportunity while
this Idea is still fresh.


Check
