According to the Wall Street Journal, Google is actively developing an Android-based games console, which could arrive as soon as this fall. Citing anonymous sources, the report claims that the console is part of a bevy of secret projects, including a new smartwatch and a revamped version of its failed Nexus Q set-top streaming device. Additional details are sparse, but given the recent influx of Android gaming platforms, like the Ouya, Project Shield, GameStick, and others, a Google-produced gaming product isn't outside the realm of reason.

Still better than anything Apple ever "invented" or ever will "invent".

Google could actually pose a threat, unlike the Ouya. Google with the right partners and support can very well enter the console business no problem. It'll be interesting to see how this develops. If Google releases an android based console, then they pretty much are going to drive the Ouya out of the market.

Too bad Angry Birds is going to be the killler app.

no threat. They are so late to this party it's not even funny. Who would buy it? The "hardcore" gamers? no. Casuals? They have an iPhone or android phone.

Ew, not to interested to be honest, I've never even played a Android game, not even once.
