You mean sit in front of my cable box and let me play games between commercials ;)
The biggest problem with consoles right now is what I call TTP (time to play) which is the time between switching the device on and playing a game. For the old consoles e.g. SNES it was seconds. For today's consoles it is in the minutes. The iPad is back in the seconds.
As people get busier the ability to bust out a quick 5 minutes of game play is going to be so important.
