OUYA Development Consoles Ship Out Today, Arriving Soon
After the OUYA broke through its funding goal on Kickstarter, people wondered what was next. Many were excited to see an Android powered console. Many were skeptical it would ever be released, let alone succeed. But the OUYA team is going strong, and they are now shipping development consoles to their developers, along with two controllers, to start getting games with OUYA support working before launch.
With a Tegra 3 and a tiny price tag, this could be a revolution in home consoles. However, with an aging chipset, it might also be released right before a new wave of chipsets is announced. But most of all, it’s up to developers to keep it going. Without support, this product will not succeed. But if these developers really do a good job, OUYA can succeed even with older hardware. We’re excited to see how OUYA does and we wish it the best of luck. Are any of you OUYA devs?
I think it's a cool concept. While it's true there are newer chipsets just around the corner, that shouldn't stop people from developing for the OUYA. After all there are still a lot of Android users in general who play games on their phones and tablets that don't even have a Tegra 3 processor in them, yet the development is still strong. I think this will be a hot selling system with a decent price tag. Myself, I use my Samsung Galaxy S3 for games and with the MOGA controller it's like a portable console. I also discovered a way to use it as a home console with the MOGA controller so I can play all the emulators as if they were the actual systems but it saves on space.
