Nothing will top RROD!

I thought Samsung is pretty good? Even the iPhones are made from Samsung manufactured electronic parts.

In my experience, I've owned a plasma TV for about 7 years now with no hiccups that survived 2 moves. I have a Samsung Galaxy, and work for a cellular company. We sell nothing but Samsung phones.

To tell you the truth, Samsung has always had quality products throughout my life.

With the massive support for phones acting as the 2nd screen, and their tech with the galaxy gear integration, their bendable OLED screens and all the things they're creating in todays world, I could see this to prove interesting.

Or would you prefer another american company like Microsoft....dare I say Apple.

Samsung entering the game could be interesting.

I don't think it matters. At least not now. Who cares if they enter?

N4g gamers don't care and probably won't even give a chance. Those platforms are pretty much 'dead on arrival'

Besides steam, all others are going for thethe casual gamer. All will have a hard time too. Why get one when your phone can already play those games and in a lot of cases better. Ouya is so much weaker than my phone and if I really wanted to I could hook up my phone to a tv. The only ones that have a chance would be Apple just because they are Apple and have their fans that will buy anything they make and Google if they would let you use chromecast and show your phones screen on tv.

"Damn is everybody starting to jump in the home console business. We got Amazon, Valve with their Steam boxes, Samsung, Ouya crap, and I've heard whispers of Apple for the past couple of years. I think Amazon will probably be the most realistic threat since they have started buying home console developers."

THEY ALL WILL! the problem is the effect of disruptive effects of the smart chips, that can be put into pretty much every freaking consumer electronics that get released by pretty much every consumer electronics company and content distribution company.

The chipsets are quite robust enough, that advanced development Tool chains are pretty much @ such an advanced level that the games that can be ran on these system chips and in fact run those games well, like EXAMPLE:

GTA III, GTA: Vice City, and GTA:SA all running on a Tablet or even a smartphone.

Remember even though these are much older game's on console's, the fact that Smartphone's can run those very well with increase in resolution on a smartphone even costing less than $70.00 on a no contract smartphone, shows that these chipsets can handle game console quality console games that 8 years ago the smartphones could not have the umph to run such games at least with a mass market price point.

Now that's not the case, hell you have chipsets that can run PS3 game's on a mobile phone and tablet chipset. the fact that those chipsets can be released so quick and so fast in design to retail in under 2 years time they become the newest mid tier smartphone's and tablets chipsets while the replacement becomes the high end chips, but the cost go down by 30%.

The key point is right now even your TV can be a smart Tv the very same smart TV chipset is the very same chipset that is inside your smartphone or Tablet.

with even cheaper developed investment games such as

Candy Crush is making over $800,000+ a day means that many such companies see the value as so enticing that they are not just going to look at that part of the market, when they already have advanced enough chipsets that once again can handle GTA type open world games
and still have the candy crush type of low cost investment , but really high return's.

When game companies that like RockstarGames who was pretty much only a game console and PC developer are now making games or porting their older games on smartphone and tablet chipsets, than that is once again they see the money on the table and do not want to leave it there.

the smartphone has and always been a disruptive platform, just look at the dedicated PDA market!
and what happened to that part of the Market.

"Sony got this. Don't throw your money away samsung... Or do, I don't care"

As i pointed out, that they really are not throwing the money away, because the chipsets are already going into those consumer electronics anyway.think of it this way.

In the very first start of computer's being made for consumer's back in the early 80's where the price point's were just starting to lower to where even middle income earning americans, the price was pretty high up, but the main chipset was intel+ the user control was DOS and than moved onto Windows powered OS.

several decades later intel processor's in mobile phones is not the leader, its Arm Holding's Chip designs, same thing in the consumer electronics industry, Arm Holding's has increased its foot print now so much so that Now Arm Holding's is gaining on the # chipset manuf. that run windows, where even now Microsoft is not just supporting Intel powered chipset's only before Microsoft only supported one type chipset for its main OS. they are now supporting Arm Holding's chips now with even a full windows OS on an Arm Holdings powered chipset!

Arm Holding's chipsets are now not just only a smart device only chipsets, they are also able to run a full desktop OS. or in other area's smart TV box's

its more convergence of the Mobile and desktop low powered chips now are used as for mainly general computing use, while high powerd chipsets are going to be more used for areas they always have but less needed for the mass market computing use. example

A game development use PC or something needed for computer science areas.

while the mass majority general use computing

is moving to these low cost lower powered chipsets like smartphone's and Tablets. even though they are low powered they are still powerful enough to handle advanced games that even games that were made for the xbox360 or the PS3. yes they are not anywhere near the new systems power performance. but think for a min.

these chipsets going into TV's are getting powerful chips that can handle games that were built for a xbox360 or a PS3. not just into TV's but also a smartphone or a tablet.

thats what is happening right now is a company like samsung can spend a few million and aquire a development studio and turn out exclusives than they can make more money from software sales.

they will
