Samsung Portable Gaming Concept, Powered by Android

Is Samsung planning to enter the portable gaming market? And if so, should they? Here is an interesting concept by designer Dumary Joseph. It is called “Consolr HD3 by Samsung” (ummm, the name needs a bit of work), and has some crazy features, and according to Yanko Design is “a fanboi’s pipe dream about the ultimate gaming machine”. After all, the best concepts are those that go past what we can currently accomplish. Check out all the details after the cut.


This beasty little console has features like fingerprint recognition so it knows who is playing and can adjust, WiFi, 4G, GPS…

Ok, but here’s my question. Why do this on a separate gaming console? Why not put it all on a smartphone? That seems to be where things are going. What do you think? Would you want one of these?
