Ouya: The Future of Gaming Consoles?

[BreakABone]

This project was announced like last week, but they threw up the Kickstarter this morning and already full-funded.

Not what's important, what is it?

OUYA is a new game console for the TV, powered by Android.

We've packed this little box full of power. Developers will have access to OUYA's open design so they can produce their games for the living room, taking advantage of everything the TV has to offer.

Best of all, OUYA's world-class controller, console, and interface come in one beautiful, inexpensive package. All the games on it will be free, at least to try.

Essentially a console that uses Android's open platform to bring great ideas to life in the console space, and using a controller, which is usually a giant knock against mobile gaming.

I think the idea is very intriguing, and the project has already been backed. Now curious to see how the business side of it actually works out.
