kingpotato Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I'm in love with the concept for a handheld like this, its basically a switch but with Windows 10. Aside from it having a Intel Core de 10ma generation processor (I dont know much about processors) we dont anything else about this prototype, but its still an awesome concept, imagine if this thing is as powerful as the switch we could exploit all its capabilities. Its not for sale and its probably not going to hit the market, I know that probably some are thinking that having a Switch or a laptop is better (which probably is) but I already like this idea, to have a pc shaped like a switch and to be able to tweak with the software like with a standard PC. https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2020/1/6/21048262/alienware-concept-ufo-prototype-gaming-pc-nintendo-switch-ces-2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shagger Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 It appears Alienware are keeping the specs' close to their chest, but a 1200p screen that size should pretty sharp provided the machine has the guts. However, I don't see this doing well. There's been gaming tablets like the Razer Edge Pro and the failed Steam Machine concept and these PCs imitating consoles never catch on because they're too expensive. And this is Alienware, they make Razer as a brand look humble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Bigger screen and easier to handle then it makes sense to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I hope to someday see the league of legends on screen big like this. I mean look at the possible screensize covering larger portion of the map. kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSteelyardDweller Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 it’s kind of weird now I think of it this is not already a thing. Seems so obvious now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 I think the cost is the reason it is not much common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, this kind of prototypes are expected to be sold for over a 1000 dollars, when you can get a brand new switch with plenty of games for half of that price. Still I like the idea of a portable console that can run PC games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
