I admit the price tag is right up my alley.

[QUOTE="ShadowDeathX"] I think I might get one. The controller uses Bluetooth.

Doesn't look to shabby to me. I'd rather play android games with a controller than on my phone. I don't think people should be laughing at this thing. Could be disruptive. With consoles having a hard time competing against phones and tablets. And the price point is spot on for such a device.

I predict this gets pulled from market. Once sega/Nintendo/etc emulators start appearing there will be lawsuits left and right. I know this is capable on any pc, but ouya is a competing product.

Also, anyone know if you can re-DL games you've already bought on Google Play onto the OUYA?

#sworcery and Osmos HD would look smashing on the big screen.

Nintendo have admitted that smartphones compete with their handhelds yet there are dozens of emulators running amok on Google Play and iOS.

The difference is this is a product that directly competes with, and resembles, a game console.

I'm pretty sure you can. Ouya uses a custom UI on top of Android. You would just have to remove that custom UI.

Doesn't seem like it would be too difficult a feat. Thanks.

Not really sure why I would buy this. I guess I'll have to wait and see what games are actually available for it after it launches.

How is it a piece of junk? It is a niche platform, that is for sure, but I think it will be great for small or beginner developers to develop and publish games without as much hassle as getting onto Steam.

100$ for a system that is not even as strong as the 160$ 3DS ?

And that has zero exclusives when 3DS gets the world ?

And is not even portable or has a screen ?

Why on earth not just buy a 3DS ?

Still kind lame :P Feels like I'm paying for a controller with a streaming box, not a console hehe :P

It's like paying just to access PSN or XBOX Live. Not too bad really.

Do you mean to say it'll be capable of streaming traditional AAA console/PC games like the OnLive console did?
