The game media would be cartidge-based -- which is good news for both loading times and battery life (just compare the DS and PSP). It will also have USB ports to hook up various other periphials and enable a PC connection. The portable device will also accept Compact Flash and SD cards for storing data. It may possibly be used for games and other media files. There is a possibility that it will have DivX (and hopefully Xvid) video playback, so these flash memory cards would be very handy.

Hmmm, that means Things like Red vs blue can be free to watch anywhere without buying the DVD

The device will be equiped with a 566Mhz Samsung processor, and 128MB nVidia graphics processor based on the GeForce 3D 4500 (similar to the Gizmondo's graphics chip), and a LCD display capable of 640X360 resolution and touch-screen capabilities. It will have an analog joystick, four buttons and two triggers. Supposedly, it will not have a traditional D-Pad, but solid details were not availible.

Thats pretty good for a handheld...and heres a concept art


Strange design...Maybe the handheld will do good, if it has a 128MB card in it, they better remake Sonic Adventure 2 for it

Was thinking it was a hoax, didnt sega announce they were finished with that whole console area, and were just going to concentrate on creating games as a 3rd party.

I wish they would atleast make some sort of handheld

The gamegear was well ahead of its time when it was brought out. They didnt have the support of the public though. Maybe they're afraid of all the playstation fanatics that swear by nothing but playstation. Bit like photoshop has on the net.

I loved the gamegear... the games were fun, too.
