Background

Apple showed really no interest in creating a video game console until 2005, when Microsoft released their Xbox 360 console. The console caught the eye of Apple engineers, and four years later in 2008, Apple began work on the iPlay.

On October 22, 2013 during the annual Apple Keynote, Steve Jobs announced the iPlay would join the Playstation 4, Xbox One, and Wii U to compete in the next generation of gaming.
