Hello,
Welcome back popcorn we've missed you (Aww you guys are too nice).
Firstly I must comment on the new look, very nice, not to cause offence but a definite improvement from the last a lot more mature. A big round of applause for the admins here.
So looking on the internet purposely for this post. It appears that Apple are considering a gaming console and Disney is rumoured to be involved. My first instinct is really Disney I mean neither need the other for this venture. Secondly are they really looking at the proper demographic. With Apple it almost seems like a mistake. The reason for the move is the connection with Disney to Pixar and Pixar to apple. Disney is apparently leaking money on-line. Even with the purchase of the new star wars franchise.
If Apple really wanted the high sales number then I don't think that they should be looking for Disney at all. They should do it on their own and involve teams of games developer's that could really drive a console, if they decide to make one, into the next generation.
Their popularity over the last few years has done nothing but grow stronger and it would seem a sensible move for them to move into the gaming console industry. I have just read a nice article on-line about Apple being the next Nintendo(please do not have a go at me for his comments about Nintendo I didn't say them)Is Apple the Next Nintendo? - DailyFinance. He points out that Apple could well be the new Nintendo of today. I tend to agree Apple could certainly resource the right people for "the job" (pun intended R.I.P).
With Microsoft bearing down on Apple, with the expected release of their new console (hope the don't call it the 720) and slowing growing gain in the phone market (HOW #toomanytiles) and the windows app store as well.
There comes a point where you have to ask your self would you buy a Apple console/game.
Thanks for reading
