I thought China stealing design and control concepts was a recent thing (With their version of a Rolls Royce / Bentley :P). You can tell why the Gizmondo never sold, with a price tag like that it's no wonder!

I remember seeing the Gizmondo in the Argos catalog, didn't they get sued by Sony or something?

I like the PSX which was released in Japan but other than that there's a damn good reason these consoles aren't being sold in the UK, they can't compete with the quality games consoles we have.

I do find it remarkable how good value the Zeebo is and how it uses the mobile internet, in some ways it's more advanced than the Xbox 360, PS3 etc :P

The only one of those that is remotely decent looking is the Veebo thing and even that I wouldn't buy without a good looking game on it, I want a Pandora though.

Also PSX is a piece of junk. xD

Vii is a cheap copy lol.

I looked at a Zeebo gameplay video and the graphics are about the same as ps1.

Should look for the X-Game 360 lolol

I remember the Gizmondo, I mistook it for the N-Gage (no idea why). Don't think that did very well either.
