According to the famous resource Wall Street Journal (wsj), Google is now actively working on a game console project, based on the Android operating system.

As far as you can understand, the "Corporation of Good" creates devices that are competitive analogues, which are now being developed at Apple.

So far, the details of both developments are unknown: neither the configuration, nor the possible cost, nothing. As far as we know, Google will try to announce at least one of the devices under development (plus the Nexus Q media player) this fall.

In this regard, some companies have already presented their game consoles based on the Android OS (the same Ouya and NVIDIA console, Project Shield), and some are now working on new gadgets. Already in August, a new Android-console, GameStick.

By the way, this fall, Google will also introduce a new version of the Android OS, which is already called Key Lime Pie. It will differ from its predecessors by the ability to work on weak, budget smartphones, as well as by the extensive support of a number of other devices, including laptops, watches, game consoles, and more.
