Gamestop Announces Wikipad Gaming Tablet

Gamestop making a tablet, you ask? Yes, it’s true, but not very attractive-looking. Let’s be honest, a weird partnership between Sony, Nvidia, and Gamestop resulting in a large game holster for a probably-too-pricy tablet will not result in a big market splash for the red-and-black company. Still, it’s fascinating to watch them test the waters. After undergoing many changes and a long history, this is an odd spot the Wikipad has landed. It’ll run $499 exclusively at Gamestop on October 31st, pushing a 1.4GHz Nvidia Tegra processor and 1GB of ram with a 1280 x 800 IPS LCD screen. Nice specs, but will consumers take the plunge? I’m not so sure.
