Games Following on from yesterday's Asus Keyboard PC thingy, Digital Tools brings news of a $10 video game system that is also based on the keyboard model. And the Playpower really is an old school computer:

"About the technical details: The Playpower Platform will be basically a keyboard with mouse and 1Mhz processor that connects to a TV screen and takes plastic-encased chip cartridges that plug directly into the keyboard. The cartridges will use the 1980’s era 8-bit Nintendo Famicom cartridge form. One single cartridge can contain hundreds of software titles and it seems, that modding of old cartridges will be also possible."

Expect conversions of Tetris, Chuckie Egg and the original Football Manager ...
