    Big Things Come in Small Packages, Meet the Ouya.

    SOURCE:
    http://www.king5.com/entertainment/g...246625051.html

    While Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo hog all the headlines with their consoles, other companies are quietly making consoles looking to sneak in as the next big thing. The OUYA would like to be the next big game system. The OUYA actually stole headlines in 2012 when it raised over $8 million on Kickstarter. When OUYA was finally released in 2013, it had its initial growing pains. Eventually the OUYA found its’ footing and has been gaining momentum at a decent pace.

    Now OUYA Inc. is introducing a new 16GB model. The new OUYA has the same internal hardware, just double the storage and boosted WiFi performance. Never having played with an OUYA, OUYA Inc. was nice enough to provide me with a review unit to evaluate the OUYA experience.
    Signature Pending...

    OUYA Inc totally payed them so they could get a good review, just like Microsoft did for their Xbox One! I'm joking, don't kill me.

    It's nice to see a positive review of the OUYA, especially since most of the reviews at the start were very harsh. It will be cool to see if in like another year those that gave it a harsh review at the beginning, re-review it and see how much it has grown since then (:

    I had the misconception that the OUYA was going to be a system full of phone apps, because it runs on an Android OS. Happily I was wrong. Out of the box the OUYA does not have access to the Google Play store, in fact it only has access to the OUYA store with games and apps specifically made for it.
    Best part!

    It's possible.
    Never heard of this site before.
    However they are reviewing the latest iteration so that could be it also.

    I have an option this spring to get an Xbox One or 5 Ouyas. I'm actually considering getting more Ouyas. I've cancelled my cable because of Ouya +XBMC and I want one in every room now!
