Do Smart TVs Herald the End of Consoles?

[BRIK]

There's an old CRT TV with a built-in NES if you hunt around. I know where one is locally, often thought about getting it.

I've heard about those. I thought they were suppose to be quite rare?
Also I know that Sony did make a TV with a PS2 inbuilt as well.

They are. When I saw that one locally it was the first time I'd ever seen one period.

I really think games can be going the way of the Netflix with faster internet coming along. Why waste time money on selling hardware if you can just deliver over the net. A decent gaming pc can cost you around $500 and a good TV can cost you around 800 so a $1,300 TV/PC cant be too far away given that it will substitute your gaming pc, console, dvd player, bluray player, whatever Home entertainment you got, all in one box

You gonna buy it? Good price?

I've thought about it, it's sat there for quite a long time. I asked him once before how much he wanted for it but I can't remember right now what he said.

I'm getting money this week, but on the other hand I'm moving soon too.

My only concern about consoles/handhelds "dissapearing" is that Bones said. If retro(physical) gaming becomes massively popular, I'm gonna be mighty pissed at the triple, quadrupled prices for even Super Mario Bros. 3 or Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

better hurry and buy everything quickly then!

I hope consoles disappear. Proprietary stripped down computers with fancy marketing names, what's the point? I'd much rather have a single standard platform.

That won't happen for a whole slew of reasons.
