What are the chances of this thing actually being able to run any of the games its advertising in this Photoshop.

AMD embedded G-Series SoC "Steppe Eagle" with Jaguar-based CPU and GCN-based Radeon graphics
4 GB RAM memory
32GB internal memory and SD Card Slot
USB OTG
5-inch Touch screen with 720p resolution
Configurable tactile gamepads
HDMI video output connection
Wi-Fi conectivity
Bluetooth connectivity
4G mobile network connectivity (PRO model only)

Honestly id rather buy a Vita or 3ds and just play games not available on PC on them.
Most last gen games wont even work on a 400$ laptop.
How can thy comperes PC hardware even more and expect it to run any games other than indie titles.
>>
Does it even run games or does it just stream them from a host PC?
>>
>>320500636
It will run them very, very poorly.

will it run my porn VNs?

>>320501165
It will probably be the only thin it can run.
Assuming those porn game support Steam OS that is.

Handhelds really are the ultimate VN system. Played through Steins;Gate recently and I just couldn't picture myself tabbing through all that text on a PS3 or PC. You can treat it a little more like a book this way.

I spent a while deciding between getting Steins;Gate 0 on PS4 or Vita, but ultimately went with PS4, since remote play means I can play it on my Vita anyway, and input lag which usually pisses me off in remote play is a non-issue in a VN.

But despite that, I've mainly been reading it on PS4, which surprised me. The art looks beautiful in HD, and I like having my hands free to eat and drink while leaving it on auto.

Up until now, I've felt like you, that I wouldn't have the patience to read one on a TV or PC, but I am completely the opposite now, and will probably always opt for the console version if there is one.

It's an old joke about being able to safely play your Japanese games in any secluded corner of the house since a lot of anons are either living at home or in some kind of shared arrangement, playing off the notion of being ashamed to be playing anything not dudebro in front of others.
>>
>>320500636
I've never really heard of this g series apu. But assuming its around the same performace at the A apus then it should be able to run most games, at 720p and low-medium settings most games don't need a fantastic gpu to run at 30+ fps. The main concern would the heat, with no fans that thing is gonna thermal throttle after a few minutes and lose its performance quickly. Also the 4gb of ram is a little low for some games it should be bumped up to 8. Honestly your better off with a laptop.

lol how am I even gonna fit those games on it mate

Hi op, you're a retard who knows nothing about steppe eagle

To put it quite simply, every game on the pic will run, but the highlighted one will run the best (braid as opposed to ass. creed

But bioshock and deus ex are unreal engine 3 from like 2007 need I remind you, and it'll fucking work fine. Those games ran fine on a fucking 9800gt, a fucking hd4850, etc. This has an embedded gpu better than that, it's not your usual garbage on-board graphics

Who wants to play games at absolute bare minimum settings and not even maintain 30fps in the best case scenario?
>>
720p resolution

>720p

what pleb would ever buy this? My phone is 1080p
>>
I had a $500 laptop on Steam for three years and the APU on that was likely worse than this. I played everything at 768p and mostly everything ran at at least 30FPS. It wont run the Witcher 3 but games it will be able to play smoothly alone will rival the library of the 3DS and I think it will be great even if it cant play AAA games maxed out the value is immense in my opinion as someone who understands laptop limitations.

For example if I look at my most played games on Steam (200+ hours) this thing will run them no fucking question. I know its popular to hate TF2 now but for me as someone who plays it a lot the idea of mobile tf2 that is the same as on PC is fucking crazy and I will play the shit out of it.
>>
>>320503902
What's the point in giving it a 1080p screen if it would struggle to render that shit at 720p? No point.
>>
>>320503902
the fact is people dont care. The vita is 500p im pretty sure the 3DS is less than 480p. Those are awful. 720p actually looks good though on the screen size, anything less really doesn't.
>>
>>320501165
Yeah, if it can boot Windows, which I believe pretty plausible.

Why did you pick the ahitriest chip and shittiest gpu?
>>
>>320504267
I like to pretend it's from 20 years ago and then I can ignore it.
Thankfully the fact all the games are just remakes and sequels to 20 year old shit makes it more believable.

But all is well. When NX comes out we might make the jump to 360p!!!
I fucking hate liking Nintendo games sometimes.
>>
>>320504267
Because games for the platform are made with the resolution in mind? Did you just start playing games this generation or something? Because this is an 18+ board...

that doesn't make any logical sense at all. And its quite common for people below the age of 18 to also like this... for dramatic effect.... Fucking retard
>>
>>320504453
Ah spotted a fellow nintenbro!

Thankfully the games are also designed for a more cinematic 30fps too. I hate when people say thats a bad thing when the games are clearly designed around it!
>>
>>320504409
Because, you tech illiterate retard of a child, that is the same chip used in the prototype of the Smach Z. The APU is just embedded Kabini, sold under the G series.

Posting a bench of Kaveri just makes you look like you have pure shit for brains.

Different person, they're saying they don't have a prototype with the final SoC and can't indicate what SoC it's even supposed to be. While it could wind up being a garbage bin.

I'd be surprised if it comes out and isn't a POS, but they haven't confirmed what they're putting in it yet.

>>320505493
If you look at the updates tab they're saying they're going for a re-launch.
>>
>>320501995
I will have to keep that in mind for when it's released in English a decade or two from now.

They're lying on all fronts. They told people to look at a different SKU in the same line to base performance expectations off of. That "new" SoC they claim they had an NDA for is infact an already released chip. The Beema line is a simple refresh of Kabini with slightly higher clocks at lower power.
They have no NDA with AMD, there is no magical new chip, they were being intentionally deceptive about everything because they knew scrutiny would kill their absurd claims.

So what's the point of even having a Cleveland Steambox? Those specs aren't enough to run most good games.
