Yeah, but it's not like North America is going to get any of the good games. And I bet the Hypergrafx will only be two 128 bit chips - not a true 256 bit system. GamePro is going to have a field day.

Still, you gotta feel sorry for the guys who had been laid off.  This downturn of the world's economy is affecting everyone and it must really suck if you've had this job for a while and it's the only thing you've got if you have to pay your bills. :(

Hope those guys find a way through this.
