Okay, you all know I'd be the first one to praise Steve Jobs and Apple. But I think they might be going a little to far with the. iGame, a portable gaming device and Ipod in one.

Badly scanned article - Also really small...

Is this just a rumor? Because there's nothing on the Apple website about it, as far as I can tell.

Yeah, I'm inclined to throw this on the "I'll believe it when I see it" pile.

Although Cocoa and integrated OpenGL would make a nice development environment for games...

It looks rather fake... the buttons don't match much.

The buttons resemble Gameboy's buttons.....I dont know about this one. If this is indeed real, it looks kind of neat.

I'm not convinced it's real...yet.

I did some research and saw this:
Apple to launch gPod - hit of the year?
It's an older article, but entertaining.

That can't be real. There were rumors last year about somebody releasing an apple gameboy. Pictures came out and everything, that wasn't true either.

Wow. I just realized that that article was from EGM. And EGM is running an April Fool's special. Jokes on you!

I don't think the buttons resemble the gameboy.

I just realized something. Apple can't make that type of D-Pad. The cross D-Pad is patented by Nintendo.

Nice job.

Anyways, Ha. If that thing ever did come out...


Also, you can tell it's fake. Look at the silouette guy. Theres something about him, but you can just tell it's fake.

This is fake. As I said earlier, this is from EGM's April Fool's edition.
