Theorysonic Titan

The Theorysonic Titan is a handheld video game console released by Theorysonic in 2003.

History and Legacy
Development began around Mid 1999 under codename Project Remark, The original designs resembled more like the systems before it being vertical and only having a d-pad and four buttons.

But by 2000, the team behind the project gave it a more "modern" look this time being horizontal and having six buttons, shoulder buttons and even a analog stick, which handheld consoles wouldn't have at the time.

It was finally revealed at CES 2002 in Las Vegas with the final name Titan, The reception was positive with many viewing it as the future of handheld gaming with the new design and buttons like the shoulder buttons and the analog stick.

The system was released on June 1, 2003 at a retailed price of 149.99$ with a packed in game named Voxel Titan to demonstrate the power of the system.

The System wasn't that successful on launch with only 1.4 million handhelds being sold by August with the most popular area was El Kadsre with 700,000 units being sold there, Due to the low sales, The lack of Third Party Support and the its high price tag and with at the time the recent failure of the Pyramid after a price cut to 99.99$.

In 2004, Theorysonic would officially discontinue the system by 2008 along with the Pyramid calling its quits on hardware but would continue repairing systems until 2012, In a Video the CEO of Theorysonic would say "Due to a number of issues we at Theorysonic have made the decision to stop making video game systems, it is sad that we had to make this decision but its the only choice we have." These days the Titan is looked back as a trailblazer when it comes to modern handheld gaming specifically for how many features it brought to the market Theorysonic even decided to return to making consoles with the Theorysonic Swift in 2018.
