Introducing SteamBoy the handheld Steam machine

The SteamBoy is an exciting new prospect that was announced on the last day of E3 2014.
Developed by SteamBoy Machine Team, a third party not affiliated with Valve, the SteamBoy is a handheld gaming console that lets you play Steam games on the go.
A teaser video for the device gives us a first peek at the portable Steam Machine with close-up shots showing the Steam Controller’s signature round track pads and Xbox One-like A, B, X, and Y buttons.
Similar to Sony’s PS Vita, the screen is positioned between the track pads in the middle.
According to The Escapist, the SteamBoy should feature a Quad-Core CPU, 4GB RAM, a 32GB built-in memory card, and a 5-inch 16:9 touchscreen.
It will also connect to the Internet via WiFi and 3G, and will be able to play “the majority of current games in Steam.”
“I think people will get shocked by SteamBoy potential and possibilities,” SteamBoy Machine Team said in a press release.
“SteamBoy is the first device that allows [you] to play Steam games on the go, you will keep playing your favorite games at the bus, the office, the school or the doctor's waiting room.”
Hopefully this doesn’t sound too good to be true as gamers will certainly be happy to hear that Steam is going portable.
The SteamBoy Machine Team say the device should be ready for market in 2015.

A child rides a specially constructed ice-chair on the frozen Houhai Lake in Beijing. Farmer Wu Yulu, 48, rides in a cart pulled by his walking robot. Hobby inventor Wu, who started to build robots in 1986, has invented 47 robots with different functions like jump, paint, drink, pull cart, massage, and help cooking. Chinese farmer Yang Youde pushes his homemade cannon. Yang's cannon, which is made out of a wheelbarrow, pipes and firing rockets, is used to defend his fields against property developers who wants his land. Gao Hanjie installs the rotor blades on his homemade helicopter, which is 6-meter
