Global retail cum e-commerce giant Amazon is currently planning to come up with its
very own gaming console very soon
which will be running on Google’s Android operating system.
As per reports, Amazon will launch the device at the end of this current
running year, possibly by 29th November or Black Friday, which is considered to
be the largest retail day of the year in the United States (US).
Eventually the ‘Game Informer' reported this for the very
first time while citing several unnamed sources. However, there are no official
announcements have come whatsoever till now about the launch or the making of own-brand video game console by the Amazon.
According to the report, at the time of launch the console will be
featuring games that are already available in the Kindle Fire’s Amazon Appstore.
This will certainly ensure that the console will be leveraging a fair amount of
titles before going on for sale.
Currently the e-commerce giant is producing a wide range of cool apps
and Android tablets like Kindle Fire tablets and more. It has to be mentioned
here that Amazon’s Kindle FireHD is one of the
rivals of Google’s Nexus 7.
The report added that Amazon is presently developing its own dedicated
gaming controller too for the upcoming console. However, it didn’t mention any
further details about the controller.
In 2013, Amazon is also preparing to launch three new Kindle Fire tablets in
order to expand its control over the worldwide tablet market. The gaming
console would be the fourth device that will be launching by the company in the
year. This simply means the retail king must be having lots of activities in
its hardware section in current days.
