Engadget - Oh, the fickle fate of a Kickstarter darling. Initial hopes and dreams culminate into a single video and a few pages of text on a website that can send your brilliant little idea careening down one of two paths. Path one is the lonely one, falling short of your goal and retreating back to the very literal drawing board to find out just why your idea didn't match everyone's ideals.
Geek: Just as China finally lifts its ban on foreign video game consoles, one of its biggest electronics OEMs has announced a new Ouya competitor. It’s called Tron, and Huawei hopes to sell it for less than $120.
N10: "The low-cost crowdfunded gaming system Ouya gains $15M in venture funding but delays its launch until the end of June."
i really dont understand this product it has no google playstore and is priced within 30 pounds of a new ps3. Why would anyone by this?
What a stupid novelty.
IT WILL FAIL.
and the media will say "teh gaming industry is doomed! Teh gaming darling Ouya failed!"
...Yet, there was never a strong demand for it. Those idiots who contributed to it via kickstarter are just that.
fools.
Engadget - So you want a console for free, eh? BlueStacks is apparently prepared to offer you just that in its GamePop game console, which costs nothing for the month of May with a one-year subscription to the service (wouldn't you know it, that costs $93.83 -- just below the price of an OUYA at retail). Like its counterparts, the GamePop is powered by Android (4.2) and runs mostly mobile games. The company isn't sharing specs just yet, sadly. BlueStacks is promising "over 500" games, and has some top mobile devs offering credence with in testimonial.
These micro-console, are DOA, each and everyone of them.
I have no idea, why people are wasting their time & money on them,.
