PowerVR: The Voodoo Rival That Powered the Dreamcast and iPhone

PowerVR’s graphics cards disappeared from PC stores. Its technology had a much bigger story. This documentary follows PowerVR from VideoLogic’s early experiments through the Matrox m3D, Sega Dreamcast, Neon 250, KYRO and KYRO II—and into mobile devices, early iPhones and the PlayStation Vita. Why did these cards appeal to gamers? What held them back? And how did a technology that struggled in the PC upgrade market find success elsewhere? Featuring archival footage, original hardware, game demonstrations and a chronological look at the decisions behind PowerVR’s changing fortunes. Did you own a PowerVR card or a Dreamcast?
