Welcome back to Gamers Hype, today on the channel we are going to find out What Will Gaming Consoles of the Future Look Like. If the "Father of Video Games" Ralph H. Baer could see how far video games have come, he would undoubtedly be proud of what he started in 1967. Baer created the first working video game, coined "Brown Box," that could be hooked up with multiple TV sets. Since then, the video game industry has seen companies come and go and forged a future with immeasurable potential. Between 1972 and 1977, Magnavox, Atari, Fairchild, RCA, and Coleco created home game consoles, with Coleco gaining popularity for its first console the Telstar. From 1978 to 1980, the well-known Nintendo began competing with the likes of Coleco, Magnavox, and Atari. At the time, Atari dominated due to their cartridge-based console, which had better graphics and games. But, as we now know, Nintendo was just getting started.
In July, Sony confirmed their PSVR 2 would come with a virtual reality (VR) headset. The headset has a sleek white form that fits the brand and gives consumers a peek into what the future of gaming may be. While the company has yet to confirm if it will be released this year, Sony hopes to lead the way in VR gaming. But as tech continues to advance, will gaming consoles become a thing of the past? Not necessarily, but games streamed from the Cloud are definitely gaining traction. It has changed how major brands like Microsoft and Nintendo manufacture consoles, with Microsoft foregoing a disc drive in its Xbox One S and opting for downloadable games. Nintendo also changed the game with the Nintendo Switch, a handheld device that can stream games onto a television. It's the best of both worlds: You can take the switch wherever you want, but you can also play games on the big screen with people from all over the world. Keep watching to know more on What Will Gaming Consoles of the Future Look Like.
