Players can use a game pad with a wireless receiver, or smartphones or tablets, to control play on the Television, playing alone or with friends using other devices such as Personal Computers, smartphones, or tablets.
"With G-cluster’s cloud gaming platform, operators can achieve high margin service revenue growth with marginal setup, maintenance, and operational effort commitments," said Taro Hashimoto, Chairman and CEO of G-cluster Global.
