A desktop game console that combines the capabilities of a set-top box itself and a network media centre running Android 6.0. The basis of the hardware is the NVIDIA Tegra X1 chip with 3 GB of RAM and a video accelerator for 256 cores, and the built-in drive (solid state) holds 16 GB; however, if necessary, this volume can be expanded with a memory card or a USB drive connected via one of the two USB 3.0 connectors. There are no optical drives, the main source of games for the nVIDIA Shield game console is the NVIDIA GeForce Now network service, the use of which is paid (except for the first months). Through the HDMI 2.0 port, the device is capable of outputting 4K video and sound up to 7.1 more→to an external screen, there are no other multimedia interfaces. But wireless communications are represented by Wi-Fi ac and Bluetooth 4.1 modules. The standard package includes a game controller, but the “TV” remote will have to be purchased separately.

The game console, as the name implies, is distinguished by the presence of a colorful OLED screen with deep colours. By reducing the frames, its diagonal is increased to 7", and the resolution is 1280x720 pixels. The model allows you to play in three modes: portable, desktop, using a wide adjustable support and placing the console on the floor or on a table at the right angle, or on a large screen by connecting the console to a TV. The included docking station has two USB ports, an HDMI connector for connecting to a TV and a new LAN port for stable online gaming in TV mode, while the two Joy-Con controllers, which are equipped with HD vibration and an infrared motion camera, can be detached more→at any time to play with a friend. In addition, the Nintendo Switch (OLED model) boasts built-in speakers with improved sound and increased storage capacity up to 64 GB. And to download even more games, you can expand the storage using a microSD memory card. A 3.5 mm audio jack is provided for connecting headphones, a microphone and a headset. Responsible for battery life is a 4310 mAh battery, one charge of which will last up to 9 hours. But this time directly depends on the games: for example, if you play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, the battery will last about 5.5 hours.

Modification of the advanced portable Vita console, equipped, in addition to Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, also with a 3G module — however, only for data transfer, telephony is not provided. The rest of the specifications are identical to the original version: a quad-core processor, its own storage in addition to the original memory card slot, a 5" OLED touch display with a touch panel on the back of the device, and classic PSP button blocks with two analogue levers. There are 2 cameras, a GPS module and an accelerometer with a gyroscope.

A high-end portable console, the successor to the original 3GS, retaining its basic principles and at the same time having a number of changes and improvements. The most noticeable external differences are an expanded set of controls (including a new analogue stick) and larger screen sizes — 3.88" and 3.33". In addition, the set-top box received an improved processor, a microSD slot (instead of SD), an NFC, and improved 3D capabilities. Features such as 3D shooting using the rear camera and tracking the user's eyes from the front have been preserved. But the built-in memory has decreased to 1 GB. The console is compatible with older games for the DS family.

One of the most popular portable game consoles. It features a non-standard design with two screens (one of which is touch screen), which makes it possible to play quite unusual games. The multimedia capabilities of this model are not too high, but the number of games is simply huge.

An updated version of one of the most popular gaming consoles in the world, which has received a number of significant changes compared to its predecessors. So, the system boasts a new 8-core liquid-cooled CPU and a unique power management system, a powerful graphics card and 12 GB of RAM. The maximum image resolution is 4K, and support for HDR is also provided, which improves the quality of colour reproduction, makes the image more realistic and enhances the impression of depth. Specifically, this modification comes with a built-in 1 TB drive. All existing accessories and games for the Xbox One are compatible with the Xbox One X. The set of ports is notable for three USB 3.0 connectors and more→two HDMI, and you should also pay attention to the optical S / PDIF, which provides the ability to connect 7.1 acoustics.

Quite an interesting variation on the theme of the original PlayStation 3. On the one hand, the new console has lost a memory card slot and half of the USB ports (Slim has 2 of them). On the other hand, the volume of the built-in storage has increased to 120 GB (in the minimum configuration), and power consumption has decreased by 30% with the same hardware basis: 8-core processor with 3.2 GB, 256 MB of RAM and a Blu-ray drive. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, integration with the PlayStation Network and even the installation of additional software from the PlayStation Store.

A driveless version of the fifth generation of Sony's hit console, loaded to the max, in order to provide comfortable gameplay in 4K at frame rates up to 120 fps. To do this, the set-top box was armed with a powerful hardware “hardware” as part of an AMD Ryzen Zen 2 hybrid 8-core 16-thread processor, an AMD Radeon RDNA 2-based graphics core with a performance of more than 10 teraflops (variable frequency up to 2.23 GHz) and a PCIe 4.0 NVMe solid-state drive for 825 GB. The Sony PlayStation 5 Digital Edition has 16 GB of RAM. The game console is designed in a futuristic black and white colour scheme with blue LED backlighting. Branded accessories are also made to match her appearance: a g more→amepad, headphones, a remote control, a dual camera and a charging station. The set-top box is subject to a vertical “parking” method and has HDMI, USB 3.2 gen 1 (1 pcs.), USB 3.2 gen 2 (2 pcs.), LAN, Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), Bluetooth connection interfaces. Additionally, backwards compatibility with PS4 games is reported.

From a technical point of view, this console is outdated: the processor frequency is only 294 MHz, the RAM is 32 MB, and the overall set of features is not comparable to the successor to the PlayStation 3. On the other hand, version 2 has long been one of the standards, and it is written for it a huge number of games. The set-top box can be used as a media centre for watching movies from DVD with 5.1 sound; in addition to optical discs, memory cards are also supported. The package includes a DualShock2 joystick.

A portable game console, in fact, a modification of the advanced 3DS model, created with the expectation of simplification and corresponding reduction in price. The simplification affected primarily 3D capabilities — none of the 2DS screens are capable of reproducing 3D (although the camera for creating three-dimensional images has not disappeared). Another difference is the clumsy body. The rest of the characteristics of the device have not changed much: two displays with the same dimensions (3.53 "and 3.02"), a Wi-Fi module, an accelerometer with a gyroscope, flash-based memory (2 GB) plus a card slot. The package includes a stylus and a 4 GB card.

True to its name, this model is a further development and improvement of the advanced desktop console PlayStation 4, modified to meet the top class for the fall of 2016. One of the most striking practical differences from its predecessor was support for 4K video; this became possible primarily due to a new video accelerator with an almost 2.5-fold increase in performance. Processor — also improved, although of the same family — AMD Jaguar; this allowed to keep the amount of RAM at 8 GB.

A retro console released to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the legendary The Legend of Zelda game series that will take you back to the golden age of video games. Such a toy will definitely be appreciated by collectors and gamers who have felt nostalgia, and those who are not familiar with these games will be interested to know how the video entertainment industry began. The device is a compact console that you can take with you anywhere, with a small 2.3-inch screen. Of course, the screen is not touch-sensitive, and you will not find other “benefits” of modern game consoles. But the battery is installed, which provides up to 8 hours of battery life on a single charge. The USB Type-C cabl more→e for charging has become almost the only reminder that it's the 21st century. Management occurs using conventional buttons and a cross. But the most important thing in the Nintendo Game & Watch The Legend of Zelda is, of course, not the equipment, but the games. And there are three of them: Full Legend of Zelda, Zelda II: The adventure of Link and The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. In addition, there is also a Vermin mini-game where you have to fight the moles as Link. In true Game & Watch tradition, the console also includes a digital clock and timer that you can interact with. So, on the interactive watch, you can watch how Link explores Hyrule and fights enemies, as well as take control at any time. And the timer shows action scenes from Zelda II: The Adventure of Link.

Although this console is not the most advanced on the market today, it still has a very impressive set of features, both basic and advanced. Technically, it is a direct successor to the original PSP and outwardly differs from it in reduced size and a new screen, and inside — doubled (up to 64 MB) RAM. Like the original, it works with MS Duo cards and UMDs and can be used not only for games, but also as a player and for accessing
