The Jungle is a cancelled portable game console developed by Panasonic, and announced in October 2010. With a design being roughly similar to a small laptop, it was developed as a portable platform for MMOs and aimed at players who wanted to play online games on the go. The Jungle was also Panasonic's first attempt at creating a handheld console. [1][2]
The system was to be the second dedicated video game console released by Panasonic, after the 3DO which was released in 1993, but which was very unpopular due to its high price ended up with a short lifespan of 3 years. In 1997, Panasonic was developing a new console called the Panasonic M2, but the company cancelled the project.
