Apple to make games a primary selling point of its new Apple TV Product

There is a lot of excitement about products to be launched at September 9’s event to be organized by Apple. As per a report by New York Times, gaming will be a key part of an Apple TV product, whose starting price will be around $150 million.

The product will be having some amazing features like better graphics, a new remote that has the ability to double as a controller and there is an app store to purchase games. As per experts, though Apple is including gaming into the product, there are little chances that it would be able to win over major gaming consoles like Microsoft's Xbox One and Sony's PlayStation 4.

But it is not something that is bothering Apple, as it has been targeting casual gamers, who do not want a high-tech game console. It is by chance that Apple has entered into gaming business. It will be a big change, as for the first eight years, Apple TV has been used to stream videos and music.

The effect would not be known until Apple reveals the system this week. Experts said that Apple has provided everything needed to have a great gaming experience. Jan Dawson, chief analyst at the technology research firm Jackdaw Research, said, “I think Apple’s going to create a big new category in gaming, one that others have tried and failed to create before”.
