The company you think should start making consoles

**Vkmies** · 06-19-2009, 04:16 PM

Is there any company you would want to see a console from? Maybe the company has made some impressive hardware? Perhaps you would want to see a dead company rise back to give us a few consoles?

I personally would want to see magnavox to give it another try! After compeletelly raped by atari magnavox stopped making consoles. I would love to see a next-gen "alien invaders plus!" or "KC. Munchkin 2000 hyper collectors special awesome edition"

How about Sony? After the success of the PlayStation 2, i could never figure out why they didn't come out with a successor...

i just want a new wonderswan but that will never happen

**tom** · 06-19-2009, 05:07 PM

BMW, they'd make an awesome console

**PapaStu** · 06-19-2009, 05:11 PM

I want Soviet Russia to make a console, because I hear that it would play you.

Imagine if Square Enix made a console. They'd have the nerd crowd locked up.

I suppose 'Sega' is too fanboy-ish an answer (though not as bad as 'Apple'). In which case, my vote'd go to... Sega.

I'm still wondering why EA hasn't made a console yet, with the sheer volume of titles they put out, they'd have enough first party games to have a win w/o any help from other publishers.

If Sega started creating the console and released it about when Sony did, then yeah they could have did it. Just don't make all the mistakes Sony made and also make a reliable console. Having a reliable console would beat out the 360. Not making extremely dumbass moves would make them beat Sony.

However, Sony must have hired all Sega's PR, because if I recall, the stuff Sega did was just as stupid(sarcasm btw.)

I think Sony gets more flak than Sega nowdays though. Back then, gaming wasn't as big back then as it is now. Everyone likes gaming now where as you had to keep it on the down low back then :P.

I think they are.

Kenmore

Naw... I'd say Capcom. They seem like they could carry a console as well as Nintendo has.

**The 1 2 P** · 06-19-2009, 07:28 PM

Crytek. Then all of their games could play on it.

**TonyTheTiger** · 06-19-2009, 07:34 PM

I'd imagine Samsung or Toshiba are likely candidates. I don't know whether or not they should but I wouldn't be shocked if they did.

**Enigmus** · 06-19-2009, 07:45 PM

For me, either Atari makes a comeback or Jobs makes the iGame. Your choice.

I wish NEC would get back into the Hardware market. The PC Engine was phenomenal. I know that's what they tried to do by working with Sega on the Dreamcast but once that system died I believe NEC's hopes of ever getting back into the hardware market went with it.

Also every electronic device I have ever bought from Phillips or Magnavox has always impressed me with it's features and quality Vs. cost.

I think if Nec and Phillips/Magnavox (All 3 having made consoles in the past) teamed up to make a system it would be awesome!

Then have Sega and Hudson sign on to supply tons of exclusive games and I would be there launch day.

**Solertia** · 06-19-2009, 08:32 PM

I'd love to see Sega come back into the game (no pun intended)!!

**Tupin** · 06-19-2009, 08:40 PM

Toshiba or Samsung are probably the only companies that have the cash to step into the ring and put up a serious fight.

**adam_devry** · 06-19-2009, 09:24 PM

I would love to see atari come back and jump in to the wars since when nintendo and sega atari was already dead from et

I wouldn't mind it either if hudson and nec team up again to make another console like the pce.Just as long as nec doesn't make another PC-FX

According to Asus, they have something better than the Wii. The problem is that they don't have anyone to write software for it. They also have a Wiimote knockoff.

While it would be nice to see Asus enter the console arena, I can't see them gaining any more mainstream market share than NEC did in the US.

I don't want to see Apple make a console. Imagine what a mess that would be, amidst the irony of how nice the hardware would look.

Personally, I would have liked to see Yoshi Deherrera's design go into mass production.
