What is Ignition (gaming OS)?

A fully customizable "console" in your living room that not only plays all the classic games you grew up with, but also brings modern features such as Gaming Achievements, Gaming Profiles, Online play, Social Interaction and more?

Imagine sitting on your couch, playing games like Super Mario Bros. or Street Fighter II on your TV, with friends (or strangers!) from across the globe set up using a dead simple, intuitive and beautiful interface. Imagine re-visiting games like Contra, Zelda, or Sonic the Hedgehog with Gaming Achievements and challenges set by you or the online community. Imagine sharing those achievements in real-time.
