So there's a 3:36 second video embedded which shows what it does.  You can play in a cradle on your TV with an xbox meets PS4 style controller.  You can pop on some handles and take the main unit with you, which contains a sizable screen.  You can then pop those handles off and share a game with a friend, use them together to play games, or things can get as weird as you want.

What I found most concerning was that good looking TV models will go from playing actual basketball to playing NBA on a small screen with shared controllers the size of a captain's wafer...or instead of having drinks at a rooftop party, they would rather play mario, again, around a tiny screen....

It's an interesting concept, that's for sure, but I'm not sure how much better this than existing mobile platforms.  Anyone excited about it?

I'll give them credit for being original with the design, but you know most people are just going to keep it hooked up to their TVs.  I'm sure parents will love it for long car rides with their kids.  I wonder what the battery life will be like and if you'll need WiFi to play outside of the house.  I've never been a huge Nintendo guy after the N64, but I know the die hards will be all over this.

Looks amazing. I have a Wii U and love it, but not being able to take the tablet everywhere was a bummer. Not only do you get to do that here, but the different control types, HD console-quality gaming on the go are awesome. Absolute must-buy.

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
