Apple Diving to the Console World

Apple rumoured to be Readying a Home Console this year

Apple Readying Home Console

 "It was only a matter of time before Apple started treading on a few people’s toes in the console gaming world.

There are rumours abound that the world’s second-largest electronics company is finally looking to dip its toes in the console water, with its next Apple TV device set to function as a games console…

The rumoured Apple TV games console is reportedly well into the testing phase and is in fact expected during the first half of this year. As usual it comes down to a rumour citing “anonymous sources” so you’ll have to take this one with a pinch of salt, but this seems like an aspect of Apple’s business that has been a long time coming.

The device is believed to be a traditional set-top box capable of directly playing games from a dedicated gaming App Store. The operating system will of course be based on iOS, with support for Bluetooth-powered controllers that should finally help Apple branch out of the touch-centric world."
