GAEMS, Gaming and Entertainment Mobile Systems are working on a portable suitcase that turns any Xbox in to a portable gaming system – which they took pleasure in showing off at E3.
If you’re the sort who travels a lot, but absolutely has to take your console gaming with you, the $250 its expected to cost may be a worthwhile investment.
The case features a 15†screen, a whole bunch of speakers and place for your console – all encased in dense dense polyurethane to protect your tech from bumps.
At the moment the prototype only first the Xbox 360, but they’re planning on releasing a universal model to accommodate the Xbox 360 S as well as the PS3 Slim. The current design doesn’t have any place for controllers, but they’re planning on supplying purchasers with a carrying case for those.
There’s still a lot of work to be done on the design – at the moment it pinches cords when closed and has an unsightly power cord sticking out of it – but the company says they’ll finalise the design based on gamer feedback.
I can’t say this is something I’d ever use – when I go away I prefer to forgo technology – but it’ll certainly have its audience. What do you think? is this something you’d shell out 2 and a half grand for?

This is perfect for lanning! so many times we get together and people may not have a VGA cable or an LCD monitor this just solves all those problems and it doesn’t look like it takes up much space!
I’d definitely look into getting one, although 15″ may be a little tooo small for me 😛

I thought a cool thing they could do is, to intergrate a HD Pico Projector something.

Saw this at E3. This is actually pretty badazz! I thought 15″ would be too small, but with it being HD it was cool. Projector version would be cool going to someone’s house, but at least this gave some glare protection and hides your screen when playing sports games so they cannot see you pick plays.
