    A surprise return to the console market for SEGA?

    Re: AMD claims it will power another gaming device

    Is this the custom ARM chip that has been mentioned?

    Perhaps an attempt by Amazon to get into living rooms.

    Are we due a replacement for the 3DS?

    That was my first thought. ARM CPU and AMD GPU? Interesting concept. And with modern day battery tech it shouldn't be an issue to get the required battery life for a new handheld. This could also be very lucrative for AMD. Large quantity, low price. Wouldn't be required to put it on a particularly small manufacturing node either so would probably be 32 or 40 nm to save production capacity. The decrease in chips per wafer would be weighed out by the maturity of such a large production and it keeps already bought capital items in use, win win win?

    Not really. Sega make some good games, it would be a shame for them to start being console exclusives again.

    Re: AMD claims it will power another gaming device

    I'm thinking something along the lines of a Steambox.

    I would have thought 3DS too but Nintendo is in the process of releasing the "New 3DS".

    ...Potentially powered by an AMD chip set?

    An Apple laptop is more likely. A console would be based on their own ARM setup, but although I am still convinced they will switch at some point I don't think they are ready to make their laptops ARM based. However, if the other custom device they are working on is x86, then that would be quite amusing if it was for Apple.
