    It's going to do what Apple TV should already be doing with iOS games. It's a different segment and will appeal to more casual gamers in addition to dedicated gamers, like tablet/phone gaming does. It's not an Xbox, PS3 or even Wii competitor in the same way that a mobile game isn't competing with PC gaming.

    With Google Play etc. it will be a unique competitor to the AppleTV and although not up to par with iTunes, provides competition to Apple to keep Apple moving and staying ahead, and it's a better push to the living room than Google's miserable attempt with GoogleTV.
