The Gaming company Wonder announces that they have been working on a console that merges excellent smartphone experience with gaming. CEO and co-founder Andy Kleinman confirmed in an interview that the game industry is ready for a “truly hybrid piece of hardware.” Wonder is looking to take the Nintendo Switch’s formula and replicate it using Android. The product doesn’t yet have an official name.
According to Kleinman, “Everyone has the same exact product” and they wants to build “an entertainment ecosystem for gamers and gadget heads who are fans of forward-looking tech.”
Andy Kleinman revealed some of the product’s features. The console package comes with a subscription service. Wonder offers its users a smartphone, controller, and a dock. The dock will allow users to play on their smartphone that is attached to the controller, similar to Nintendo Switch. The phone will be powered by the Android-based WonderOS, and similar to a gaming PC, Wonder’s custom software will allow its GPU to be overclocked to get the best gaming experience possible.
Kleinman said: “What we’re doing is not super hard. We’re not trying to create Magic Leap-style revolutionary tech nobody has ever seen, We’re just trying to put together a great experience, in the way Apple does it.””
