Out of almost 50,000 backers for Ouya's kickstarter page some of them must have come from gamespot. I'm just curious to see how many; I also would like to know what console/games you prefer and if that had anything to do with choosing the donate/preorder the Ouya.

I for one tend to prefer retro and indie games over AAA titles which is why I plan on getting the Ouya when it comes out. I wanted to donate to the kickstarter page but I was/still am broke (which is another reason the Ouya seems appealing to me with all its free-to-play games)

No I am not buying whatever this "Ouya" is. I don't know what it is, nor do I care to know. Been seeing threads here about it, but never once bothered with clicking on any of these threads. I just don't care to know what it is.

I only pledged a dollar and I'll probably get one eventually. But I have an iPad 2 so it will need a handful of good exclusives or tablet based games that make the most of the controller. Overall I'm expecting old school experiences but I'd also like to play games similar to the likes of NOVA on it. Its definitely not going to compete with the big 3 and that's fine, its just a cheap alternative but fresher.

I highly doubt the Ouya will amount to much at all. I didn't back it.

I think its a great idea, but I'm not sold on pre-ordering one. ITs way to early for that sort of commitment.

If they make more money and begin to create some fun worth while exclusive games, but as of now I don't want to play andorid, IOS apps and Indy games on my tv.

How is it a scam?

Anyway, I'm awaiting retail release, but we'll see how that actually goes...

**EDIT**

Then again, there is Ebay if I want it badly enough at a good price.

I like it & think its a good idea

Not going to pre-order or anything like that

Will see when they come out how they do (really good is my prediction)

Personally i see it as a good combo to my PS3 & might get one

Even went as far as to look on android tergra games ... I got interest in playing a few games

It needs a gift card service first & foremost before I really leap to get it

If they expect you to CC the games then i wouldn't go near a system promoting hacking ... would be stupid to stick that info on there

All that free game stuff while there is free games like that zombie game i seen mostly won't be free just some aspect has to be free like demos

No. I have no good reason to buy/preorder Ouya. Like every console I bought, I waited at least 2 years after launch to see if they had good amount of exclusive titles I want. Until then Ouya is irrelevant.
