Ouya Everywhere Live on MOJO

[azsouthendzone]

Well anyone that hasn't invested yet in either would get Google Play, Netflix, ...whatever. Doesn't matter. Point is FOR ME the Ouya is a tease. I love it for the most part, what it could be, but now that I have had a taste I want more, and granted I am a geek like this but with certain games specs absolutely matter. And I don't care what it costs. Any device at $99, hell any device that says it has wifi should have great wifi. Ouya was a great starter for me but I want better. If Ouya 1 is so good why Ouya 2?

I have been so close to buying a Mojo but at this point I would rather wait for the next generation of micro consoles. I do game in a couple different places and sometimes take my system to a friends house. Moving around a 360 or PS4 isn't ideal so when I heard about the OUYA that was part of the appeal, the small size and portability that was even highlighted by OUYA.

I use a browser on the OUYA so I want a keyboard and mouse available for some things. I quickly filled up my 5.6GB or what ever it is and needed to get external storage. Now for the keyboard and mouse I need a usb port and external storage I need a usb, so now I have to get a usb hub. The Asus tegra 4 tablet running at a much higher resolution of 2560X1600 runs GTA SA much much smoother on max settings, SoC is much stronger which will extend it's life. People look at 1GB of RAM compared to 2GB as double but in user usable RAM it's about 3 times. The system uses and accounts for about 1/2 GB, 1GB minus 1/2GB is 1/2GB. 1/2GB minus 2GB is 1 1/2GB, 1 1/2GB divided by 1/2GB is 3, 3 times the usable user RAM. It has double the storage space, this is big because 5GB or 6GB of usable storage doesnt last long compared to 12GB or 13GB. The black OUYA should of had quality wifi and BT from the beginning so it's hard to charge more for fixing mistakes. The basically charged $30 more just for double the storage space. Plus the Mojo has 2 USB ports and a micro sd card slot. This basically eliminates the need for a usb hub, making it much more portable and convenient. At $160 the Mojo is much more of a value considering that it now has OUYA everywhere.

The $160 Mojo offer has expired , it's back to $199.

So people who got the discount and people who didn't are getting a different product? This is a truism that needs to be retired.

Clearly the $200 MOJO is better simply because it cost more.
And furthermore, spending more for a device with hardware specs you don't actually need to play the same games as a cheaper device that is more than capable to play said games is also a very wise investment of money apparently.

Well there are games that run better on a tegra 4, there were even people who we forcing 720p to get better frame rates and a fair amount of people use the overclock app. Plus the Tegra 4 device will perform at a higher level so it will last longer before the SoC is underpowered.

I don't know about you but a lot of people want more internal storage space let alone a micro sd card. If you look through the forum you will see plenty of discussion about usb hubs so I think that a second USB port would be used by most.

I dunno why everyone is getting all attitudey xD this isn't about which device is better this is just about welcoming our Mojo brothers to the Ouya Everywhere initiative. The Ouya for me does everything I want it to by far. So I wouldn't spend money on a mojo. But some people would. While it won't emulate gamecube so I don't care about it; it doesn't make you a lesser person cause you bought it lol. Why can't we just get along and agree that this is good for Ouya?

you complain about sonic costing $2 more on OUYA but think spending $200 to get an sd slot & an extra usb port is a good idea?
there isn't much of value really if you can't offer solid arguments for why a current OUYA owner should buy a MOJO.

Which OUYA games require a Tegra 4 to run right now?
I have a 32gb thumbdrive that stick's 3/4 of an inch out of my ouya.

mojo simply does not offer enough to be worth the extra $100 cost.

$200? might as well buy a wii-u or ps3 or xbox360.

Clearly you know little about the MOJO. But hey, crank windows work on cars for some people. For some, cheap is always the way to go and ignorance is bliss.

What OUYA games require Tegra 4 to run?
What do I need a Tegra 4 device for that makes it worth the $200 price tag?

Instead of telling me I don't know what i'm talking about.
Tell me what makes the mojo so much better than ouya & why I need it and why it's worth the added cost.

I dunno why everyone is getting all attitudey xD this isn't about which device is better this is just about welcoming our Mojo brothers to the Ouya Everywhere initiative.

I don't have a problem with the mojo.
I have a problem with the "anything but ouya" mentality i keep seeing from people that don't make sense by contradicting themselves.
The mojo while i'm sure is a fine device, simply costs too much & offers very little extra for playing OUYA games.

And when android TV comes out with K1 will mojo still cost $200

You're not on team mojo?

But seriously, you're correct. I don't think Mojo is a bad thing to invest in, with or without the discover store. It highly depends on what you intend to do with it. If you don't mind hunting through Google Play to find things that will work okay, it's a good taste of what Android TV will be like. If you want a hint of what OUYA 2 will probably be like, it does that too. It's a difficult thing to dismiss for those that can't get it out of their head that a built in Google Play is the holy grail for this form factor.

OUYA emulates other devices well, and that is a selling point for many. MOJO is more or less emulating OUYA, so how can that be worse?
It's a revenue stream for OUYA and developers either way. Possibly even more so than official OUYA hardware if there is an OEM license fee from MadCatz involved here.

I still predict that the next iteration of OUYA hardware will at least acknowledge the MOJO and Nuvola specifications since that seems to make the most sense for their company growth. Why lock these devices at the T3 reference spec, and lock the next generation of software (and entitlement licenses) away from users who have this device after OUYA 2 releases? If they match the spec, they possibly get OUYA 2 customers out of Mojo/Nuvola before they sell a single reference device. That makes it a more attractive profile to target for developers since existing devices won't cause the OUYA 2 user base to start at zero users (and I mean for OUYA 2 specific software, disregarding backward compatibility).

I don't have a problem with the mojo.

I think when K1 comes out, Tegra 4 devices will skew into the $100 range. Many are starting to now.

I don't think it would be horrible for OUYA to release both Tegra 4 and K1 devices within close proximity of one another. One could be an inexpensive model (Tegra 4), the other could be a more cutting edge, expensive one (K1). One would pander to the cutting edge/hardcore/best of the least powerful console early adopters (K1), while the other would be a bit more mainstream and target a larger audience (Tegra 4). One would pay a lot more and wouldn't have to upgrade as frequently (K1). The other would pay less now (Tegra 4), but pay again later when a new chip replaces K1. etc. etc.

[Kuesco]

All this rage for nothing! The OUYA don´t need super mega charged CPUs, it needs to be original and far from the already seen. Why someone could want a K1 or wathever is called to play games like "Man bobos are Candy Corn"? (nothing personel) this class of low end software runs well in low end hardware so there is no need to frag everyone to see what would come inside into the next OUYA 2. But if OUYA can spend some time working with developers, maybe they can créate and set a new level of games, like Sega and Nintendo did in the early ages of game consoles and then the rest will come alone.

Sorry but for me, seeing the average quality of the available games today in OUYA (with some notable exceptions), there is no sense in this battle about wich hardware will do what.
and remember that the guys of a little company called Microsoft sells 99.999999999% software, and they drive and push the hardware of every PC (and in some way game system) in the world.

so put focus where focus would stay.

Stronger specs would attract more "higher end" people to develop for the hardware, or at least consider it a choise to.
