I think it already has. People are actually aware of this one prior to its release :P

"Apple Insider news: "The business model of building relatively expensive game consoles (at $400-600) that are sold for around five years, rarely making a profit but supported by the licensing of quite expensive game titles ($50-80) is likely to implode when exposed to Apple's model of selling a $150-200 device you can replace with a much faster model in two years, while enjoying low cost iOS-style titles from a much wider variety of large and small developers, most of which will likely be sold to work across iOS devices as well as Apple TV, and likely also support gameplay moving from Apple TV to mobile devices."

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight, implode.  Because everyone who's playing Call of Poopy and Derpity online is gonna move right over to angry birds.  

People play shitty ios games because they're cheap and available on their phones and douchepads.  Nobody wants to sit at home and enjoy all the power of a cellphone on their TVs.  Get over yourselves, apple.

Stick with shit you know, like watches, err, um, not watches.

But we already do.  It's called our phones.  Why do we need a tiny box that can play the same shit that our phones do?!  And surely they'll be able to charge us ALL OVER AGAIN for the games we've already purchased and are virtually indistinguishable from their portable counterparts.

Buuuuuut - being the technology whore that I am, I'll be throwing more money down the toilet and getting one at launch. Lol.

How will most games even play without a tough screen?
