The Ouya, a new video game console not by the big 3

The specs are incredible and its only $100.

I'm totally getting one. And it's completely open, which is a dream for an aspiring developer like me. The OS is android-based.

It's completely hackable, meaning mods will be easy.

DO WANT.

Discuss. I love Nintendo but I'd like to see something disrupt the big three.


Oh, and it has Minecraft [b]and[/b] Final Fantasy.

THIS ISN'T SEGA!

Anyway, it looks pretty cool. Definitely gonna wait to see exactly what half their selling points mean. May buy it at some point.

They mentioned the $100 laptop in the video as comparison. I just hope that this isn't what they're trying to do and that the specs will really stand up to the PS3, 360, and WiiU. That's about the only thing that's keeping me from buying one. Well that and the fact that I don't know many games that will be on it.

It's got 4x as much RAM as the PS3. ANYWAY, even if the games don't all have FFXIII-level graphics, it could definitely provide some fun games.

Thank you!

See, it's not about whether it's financially successful or not. Of course it's not going to overpower the current gen. It's about supporting innovation.

DAMN RIGHT! Modding capabilities, open-source. WHAT IS THERE NOT TO LOVE!
I can still play PS3, PC, and this console it's not like it is going to be a problem.
I wonder is Slender might make it there, dunno though.
AND ITS CHEAP!
However the monetary factor isn't much of a problem.

And don't forget, every game will either be F2P or have a free demo. EVERY GAME.

I'm actually going to start learning Java and Android stuff right now so I can release a game on this thing.

Amnesia would be so fun on that. Not saying it would happen just that it would be cool.
