Good to see Scott is getting in more videos - there's a sense of maturity and professionalism he brings to the videos that not many other IGN staff do.
Honestly, when an article on the OUYA (it was on Yahoo) mentioned that it can run emulators, many persons actually started taking an interest to it. Really weird considering that they all have a PC or Mac, or even a laptop, that is perfectly capable of downloading and running emulators. Heck, you can run emulators on PS3, PSP, PS Vita, and I'm guessing Xbox 360 as well.
Its a gaming system, It was on kickstarter had a lot of people backing it, I personally don't like kickstarter nor do I like gaming consoles, this was a great idea, it was just missing bits and pieces to make it "shine" to the publics attention.
The sad part about the console launch is that backers like myself have still yet to receive our product. I purchased mine last Nov., yet while it goes on sale at retail stores. Scratching my head on that one.......
I think it should also be able to have Netflix, RUclips, internet, all that good stuff. Which means as soon as Nvidia Grid is all set up you should be able to play AAA titles on it.
My feelings is not to hate it before you try it, It may run games at a pretty good FPS, like Skyrim, they said it could do almost any game. I think this gaming system was made for that thing we have all been waiting for, the one to run all games on one system except nobody is giving it a shot. A lot of people loved it on Kickstarter, now that it came out all I see is a bunch of hate on something people have not even tried.
You see, number 3 had a much more immersive story, while number 5 had a fun lasting co - op, number 1 is there because of it immersive story only. 2 - Has the best multiplayer, and graphics, without that, it wouldnt be there.
The Ouya shows some sort of potential, but its being completely overshadowed by the newer gaming consoles i.e PS4 & Xbox one. I know that it isn't meant to compete with them, but its true. Also not many people know what it is. I personally think that unless it gets some sort attention this console is going to be a lost cause.
But taxes are determined depending your country and other stuff (which, sincerely, I do not know) I was talking about the actual fisical price of the console.
Since this device is Android powered, I don't think so... PS: There is no slot for game cartridges. All the games are downloaded. That means that if the game is available for download, your good to go
"They really went out on the accessories such as batteries and cables as well." Ooh boy, 2 batteries and an HDMI Cable I could buy on Amazon for up to $5.
I like how people compare this to the Xbone and and PS4. Guys this is NOT a system on that level, and was never meant to be. This is an inexpensive outlet for indie developers to have they're own system to easily release they're own creativity on, without having to go through major companies that can make it a pain in they're butt to do so. It's not meant to impress the hardcore, just take a huge step towards more freedom for smaller studios. You don't like it, don't buy it.
And Android based console Which means you can pretty much play a lot of free games The problem is that all those games can be played already on your phone, so this is not the necessary a novelty BUT.. if you have a kid that is asking for a games console and dont have enough money for a PS4 / XBoxOne, this $99 solution + all the free games sounds like an awesome gift!
I feel like as soon as a lot of people get an xbox one, they are gono star putting some of the restrictions back slowly and hope people will just deal with it. but we shall see.
don't mind spending a 100 bucks. with a dedicated controller, and Emus/Roms, and possible new games for it in the future. I know I can play Emus/Roms on my laptop but a small console made for it and then some, it's worth a 100 bucks. It's not like I'm investing 300-400+ dollars on it.
Microsoft didn't give you a headset as you have Kinect, you may have to pay for your membership online but it is about ten times better than psn will ever be. In the reveal conference Sony revealed things that the Xbox has been doing for years now. Xbox One is evolving a games console into an entertainment device, the ps4 is just a games console at the end of the day
Because it's a great console at an incredibly cheap price point. Plug it into your computer and bam, it's a Dev Kit that lets developers make games for it. Not to mention you can use a wide variety of controllers like the 360 and PS3 on it and all of the games have some sort of F2P aspect to it. The PS4 will be a waste at launch because all you're getting is a new console with a possibility to fail with games that won't look or play too different until the system has aged a year or two.
I am way more interested in that Portal room than I am with that system
Good to see Scott is getting in more videos - there's a sense of maturity and professionalism he brings to the videos that not many other IGN staff do.
That was the quickest unboxing I have seen in my life
The Ouya looks more like a Apple HDD but with a chrome layout to it! Looking forward to seeing more in the future.
That looks like a great pencil sharpener.
Am I the only one that when they see Ouya they go "OHH YAHH!"?
Wow, I sure was looking forward to this!
...said no one, ever.

Looks cool, true gamer here, I'll get every console if I can afford it
Wow. I can see this becoming a big name in consoles, especially for indies.
Its a gaming system, It was on kickstarter had a lot of people backing it, I personally don't like kickstarter nor do I like gaming consoles, this was a great idea, it was just missing bits and pieces to make it "shine" to the publics attention.
It actually looks pretty cute.
Yea the yoga was announced before the outs but that doesn't mean it was in production longer than the Xbox one.
The sad part about the console launch is that backers like myself have still yet to receive our product. I purchased mine last Nov., yet while it goes on sale at retail stores.
Scratching my head on that one.......
That is your opinion. I think it looks like a really cool piece of technology.
Ouya is a little console that plays old games that u wouldn't normally be able to play. Example: smash bros (original) just to letting everyone know
I'll get an Ouya around Christmas it has some cool features and is cheap at only 100$.
Cannot wait to get one. Looking forward to this new toy, only for $99.00.
I would have liked this back in January, but now I'll just wait for my PS4
I think it should also be able to have Netflix, RUclips, internet, all that good stuff.
Which means as soon as Nvidia Grid is all set up you should be able to play AAA titles on it.
A concur, I would get an OUYA later at Christmas or another holiday.
I still like saying the Ouya's name in a posh accent... try it, it fits so well
My feelings is not to hate it before you try it, It may run games at a pretty good FPS, like Skyrim, they said it could do almost any game. I think this gaming system was made for that thing we have all been waiting for, the one to run all games on one system except nobody is giving it a shot. A lot of people loved it on Kickstarter, now that it came out all I see is a bunch of hate on something people have not even tried.
Ouya is Android operated with apps and games you can play on your big screen, i think
This is not a traditional console. For what it is, it is interesting. And in the future i hope it improves.
its amazing how cheap the controller seems just by the sound of touching it
You see, number 3 had a much more immersive story, while number 5 had a fun lasting co - op, number 1 is there because of it immersive story only. 2 - Has the best multiplayer, and graphics, without that, it wouldnt be there.
that's actually a pretty good deal, remember the Gameboy was 100 bucks, so this is sort of a step up!
$100 in 1989 would not be the same.
The Ouya shows some sort of potential, but its being completely overshadowed by the newer gaming consoles i.e PS4 & Xbox one. I know that it isn't meant to compete with them, but its true.

I hit "like" for tha Portal gun...I WANT the portal gun -.- lol
If I had a child, I would get it for my kid.
I'm amazed someone was nice to them about that lol.
what kind of games can you play on it
Wait a tick? Mine says the revolution starts now on the red thing.
I'm just not going to reply anymore, you just showed your maturity.
I'm getting both consoles but idk which one to keep at my house I live at the most
But taxes are determined depending your country and other stuff (which, sincerely, I do not know)
I was talking about the actual fisical price of the console.
Im gonna buy this just to play old games on my tv :)
I'm seriously thinking about getting one.
Ouya looks very nice.
if only it had the nvidia tegra 4 processor then i would buy this in a heartbeat
After reading a recent post , i believe they already did. In attempt to get rid of the " headaches ".
Well the Ouya is Android based so most of the games on Android are compatible for the system.
On with your opinion bro
Im interested in what games will be available for this
I don't know, I think it's kinda neat. I'll probably wait until it goes bargain bin though lol
Same in NZ we have to pay more than US as well :(
Android and custom made games/emulators. U can also side load if u want hope this helped
that was one fine HDMI cable
am i the only one who thought the thumbnail looked like he was loading a revolver?lmao
I hope it comes to Brazil, sometime soon. :)
Cool little box.
It's not connected wirelessly through the Internet?
Hey man, enjoy playing on the Ouya.
Since this device is Android powered, I don't think so...
PS: There is no slot for game cartridges. All the games are downloaded. That means that if the game is available for download, your good to go
Was gonna buy one of these till seen that you have to connect it to your tv with an hdmi cable
No it's that sarcasm doesn't have a font. I'm very good with it.
I didn't expect that to be so small
"They really went out on the accessories such as batteries and cables as well."
Ooh boy, 2 batteries and an HDMI Cable I could buy on Amazon for up to $5.
Some people just don't understand the fact that this console is made for indie games... not Huge AAA titles... more for a casual gamer like myself.
I like how people compare this to the Xbone and and PS4. Guys this is NOT a system on that level, and was never meant to be. This is an inexpensive outlet for indie developers to have they're own system to easily release they're own creativity on, without having to go through major companies that can make it a pain in they're butt to do so. It's not meant to impress the hardcore, just take a huge step towards more freedom for smaller studios. You don't like it, don't buy it.
they will make OUYA consoles every year. Kinda sucks knowing that instead of this one being fully supported, they will just make and sell another one.
I have never heard of a Ouya, is it a modern gen console?
Does the OUYA have the Modern Combat games?
lol that profile picture was halarious.
What if I told you, I'm not even in the same dimension as you :O
Basically what I've heard is that it's a pirate box.
I still can't get over the size
are you kiding me? In Brazil it'll be come around R$1000,00($500,00)
A smart consumer won't think that an Ouya is "really like" an Xbox One.
Why is it that to me the Ouya looks like a toaster for really small bread?
This looks pretty good.
And Android based console
Which means you can pretty much play a lot of free games
The problem is that all those games can be played already on your phone, so this is not the necessary a novelty
BUT.. if you have a kid that is asking for a games console and dont have enough money for a PS4 / XBoxOne, this $99 solution + all the free games sounds like an awesome gift!
I feel like as soon as a lot of people get an xbox one, they are gono star putting some of the restrictions back slowly and hope people will just deal with it. but we shall see.
I'm pissed! I backed my ouya in September and I did not receive it yet!!!
looks cool.. i hope i can get it within my FREE budget.. huehuehuehue
You didn't read the new response, did you?
Like if u think the new axe commercials will be the Chinese commercials today
mee too :D i need to get a job for all this new shit coming up lol
i would like to get one, but i don't like the year after year "update"
how the cool thing about the ouya is that it comes with battery's for the controller? What is this industry coming to?!
I still wonder whether to spend money on this
Damn.......Tell us how you really feel
Do you see me fanboying over the PS4 or Xbox 1? No, you don't.
Truly it's not like PS4 couldn't do the same thing. I doubt they would but still possible.
"My new boss is a robot"
not australia im guessing of course
don't mind spending a 100 bucks.
with a dedicated controller, and Emus/Roms, and possible new games for it in the future.
I know I can play Emus/Roms on my laptop but a small console made for it and then some, it's worth a 100 bucks. It's not like I'm investing 300-400+ dollars on it.
looks like a small piggy bank
looks cool though
I heard alot of backers didn't get their look up omagasin alpha
Is that suppose to be a hyped-up version of an Xbox system?
It's a gaming console. One that costs $99 and plays all your Android mobile games on your TV.
It's actually shocking how much people actually want this "console".. playing old games only sound great til it's actually in front of you,
DOUBLE AA BATTERIES? SHIT IM BUYING THIS
@TheWertyu4
It definitely wouldn't be outselling!! Did you forget it's still $100 more expensive for less hardware than the ps4?!?!
And theres a portal gun in the back ground in the bottom right lol
The controller is bigger than that actual console box? hahaha
Microsoft didn't give you a headset as you have Kinect, you may have to pay for your membership online but it is about ten times better than psn will ever be.

The controller is bigger than the console? :P
