Do you have any idea of the cost?
pcs failed ages back.
I know that reality gaming or a branch of them are trying again with
the aim of shifting full time to the console.
However, all thats known internally is a secret code and some really
basic specs.
I don't even know what the status of that
though.
Game on.
Tom

Hi Yohandy and all.
If you are having problems with the console thinking there is no game
inserted try blowing out the cartridge slot with some compressed air if you
have access to that, if that doesn't help you may need to get in there with
some 90% isopropyl alcohol and clean the contacts

Hi Travis,
Well, to be honest I think while it is a nice idea in concept I also
think it is way too limiting. The reason is that I've been exposed to
the current gen consoles like the XBox, Play Station, etc and if I
were going to support any game console it would be something like
that. This

HI Travis,
Well, before I say yes/no I'd like to know all of the technical
specifications of such a console. What operating system will it use?
What programming languages will be available for development? How are
you going to redistribute games like Asteroids when last I checked the
copyrights
on that note we almost want to build the console round a preexisting engine.
Bgt for example or even better the new g3d.
Which is still in development which means its still open to adding
new stuff into it.
Though tom is right.
A lot are still on vb 6, a few are in the dotnet and a couple are

Yeah, but how is the majority of the blind community going to
pay for all of this, especially in this economy. If we're not on

hmmm where did you go to get the consoles etc.
How would you upload to the cartrages.
The console looks to be a little limiting but if you can make music
files on the console and can somehow have them extract to mods or
