The '''iQue Player''' (pronounced "IQ") is a [[video game console]] that was manufactured by [[iQue]], a [[joint venture]] between [[Nintendo]] and Chinese-American scientist Dr. [[Wei Yen]]. The system also goes under the [[Chinese language|Chinese]] name of '''''Shén Yóu Ji''''' (神游机), literally "Divine Gaming Machine". ''Shényóu'' (神游) also serves a [[double entendre]] because the term also means "realistic experience". The console itself takes the form of the controller and plugs directly into the television. A box accessory is available that allows multiplayer gaming.<ref>[http://www.ique.com/machine_bb_gyh.htm iQue Ltd<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> At the moment, it is only marketed in [[mainland China]], as the console's unusual game distribution method is an attempt to curb games piracy in that region.
The iQue Player was first announced at the 2003 [[Tokyo Game Show]], and it was released in mainland China on November 17, 2003. A Japanese release was rumored for mid-October 2004, but never materialized. Nintendo currently has no plans to release the iQue Player outside of China.
Games for this console are stored on a 64MB flash card which is contained within a cartridge that plugs directly into controller/console. Games are purchased at a special "iQue depot" where games may be downloaded onto the cartridge and played later, in a similar manner to the [[Famicom Disk System]]. Demo games that come with the iQue include ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'', ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', and ''[[Star Fox 64]]''. These demos are time-limited versions of the games. Full versions of the three titles are available, as are other first party Nintendo titles such as ''[[Dr. Mario 64]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', ''[[Wave Race 64]]'', and ''[[F-Zero X]]''.
==Technical details==
<!--Help this missing link! [[Image:|thumb|right|The logo to the iQue system.]]-->
The iQue Player is based on the [[Nintendo 64]], but uses [[system-on-a-chip]] technology to reduce size. It plays [[Nintendo 64]] games specifically [[porting|ported]] to the system.
