SEGA announcement teased that will 'rile up' the video games industry

[SEGA RPG FAN]

Re: the game gear micro,
Back in the day I was standing in a store and couldn't decide between a game boy and a game gear. While I was waffling back and forth, some kid bought the last game gear and made my decision for me. Still to this day, no regrets. Pass on the micro

This is the "revolutionary" announcement:

More details about Sega's new 'Fog Gaming' just posted.

It's a cloud gaming service for arcades. It will make use of the arcade cabinet's CPU/GPU which will reduce costs and keep lag down. And it allows game centers to make money outside of operating hours

Article now with info:

- yes, "Fog Gaming" is the "scoop"
- Sega will use arcades in Japan as the technical backbone
- CPUs and GPUs housed in arcade machines are mentioned specifically
- ultra-low latency is touted
- commercial idea is to use arcades outside business hours

The Game Gear Micro is another minor announcement, but even so, this has nothing of revolutionary.

Well neither announcement is even close to living up the the hype but I'd say I'm more excited about the Game Gear Micro than a cloud gaming service for arcade games that's never going to leave Japan. lol

I think the carts are bigger than the console itself.

You're not wrong. Is it like a 1 and a half inch screen? My wreck-it Ralph hands would crush the thing

Not even. It's only 1.15". The thing is truly micro!

I doubt the Game Gear Micro will ever be launched outside of Japan as well...
