My wife told me yesterday that Amazon had a new stock of Ouyas so I told her to place an order. She placed the order first thing in the morning. She has Prime so two day shipping, but it's set to...

Cheaper USB Hubs tend to burn out quickly and become un-usable. That's been my experience anyway...

As someone else stated, the Ouya does not have an IR Sensor, so I'm not sure why you would have thought it would/should support IR Remotes? However, for XBMC specifically, there are Android apps...

Does anyone know if these Emulator Apps can read files off of an external hard drive?

I've been a gamer since the Atari 2600. I bought a NES myself at 12, having to give up all 12th birthday rights in order to be allowed the honor. I've paid for 99.9% of all game related stuff since...

Not sure if this is what you had in mind, but there are Android apps that let you use your phone as a XBMC Remote Control using XBMC's "Webserver" settings. The one I use is called "XBMC Remote".

Nice review! Looks like a fun game too! Love me some old school side scrollers!!! Can't wait to get an Ouya for myself...

Just to clarify, I'm not trying to give excuses or anything. Just trying to provide a different perspective.

There is a huge difference, that is true. Nintendo worked on the Wii for years before...

Just throwing this out there, but when the Wii was released, it only held 512 MB of internal storage, and the SD slot was ONLY for some save data and other game specific features (as in a game let...

He lost me at "Put your cock on my shoulder".... And I wasn't too impressed before that. But, I will say one or two more things.

The argument that if you want to play with a "bud", you need to...

Not to be "that guy" or anythying, but it's not really a fair comparison IMO. The Wii U is out already; if someone wants it, they can go get it right now, then they'll no longer want it anymore...

I have the Vita and LBP2 with the Cross Controller DLC. The Vita connects through your LAN (WiFi). I personally have experienced issues with it where it looses connection for split seconds on and...

Maybe the citizens of Japan never got sucked into Facebook? They are pretty smart over there, so that wouldn't surprise me at all. (Yes, I hate Facebook)

I feel bad for the developers in this thread, especially since there isn't anything I myself can do about it; I don't have an Ouya yet. And I know I'm in the vast majority, not minority... It...

Congrats! I am completely green with envy!! Can't think of anything specific I'd like to see myself, but I will look forward to seeing whatever you have to share. I'm very interested in XBMC, but...

At first I thought it would be impossible to pick a single favorite game of all time, but after thinking about it for a second or two it was obvious to me. Super Mario Bros 3 is without a doubt my...

Just in case anyone is interested, here's a little update on this endeavor.

All together I have 15 different TV shows on my hard drive. There are 28 seasons of half hour episodes, and 43 seasons...

Try downloading the APK file from their downloads page from your computer:

http://xbmc.org/download/

Then you should be able to sideload it on the Ouya. I have no idea exactly how that's done...

Yeah, that seems kind of hard to believe.. I added a comment on YouTube asking if he had a link or something with more info on the whole emulator/ROM/money to devs thing.

I'd be very interested to see what all the hackers and homebrew enthusiasts think about the Ouya. The people who hack Wiis and PSPs and make games and apps on those platforms, are they going to come...

How many Ouyas are out there in the hands of actual customers I wonder? Developers may want to check out what others are doing, but I doubt they spend too much time with that, and I doubt they are...

Why would a Tablet not be able to do it if a Phone can? My wife has a Phone with Jellybean (4.2 something). Her phone can store apps on external just fine. Why can't a Tablet?

Not sure how that's accurate. All "Android" devices I know of have setups for external storage. Either SD or MicroSD, almost every Android device I know of has something setup for this (only the...

I think I'll just have to deal for the moment.. I don't see myself getting a new computer anytime soon. It's gonna be expensive when I do as I refuse to get stuck with Windows 8... So I'll have to...
