We love the way in which concepts stick a middle finger up to reality. Take the Orbit's 12-core 5GHz processor for example. Or it's support for 48GB of RAM. Not to mention its 1.5TB hard drive and 4K output resolution.

Did we mention that it can wirelessly broadcast games to up to four tellies simultaneously, without requiring a single HDMI cable?

How about its support for Google Glass gaming, NFC, keyboard and mouse support? Because it can manage all that too.

It's all a pipe dream of course – especially given that there are serious doubts over the Xbox One and PS4's ability to play 4K games – but we digress.

We're secretly hoping that an elite ninja team at Google is already hard at work on the ultimate games console, and if it's specced anything like the Orbit then we'll be ready to throw our money at them on day one. Of course, we don't believe a Google console would either A) look like this or B) have anything like this level of spec, given Android's ability to run on low-power hardware and Google's cloud prowess (which presumably any Google console would harness).

But hey, we all like to draw pictures, don't we?
