OUYA's Micro USB Port

[LightyKD]

What's the deal with the micro USB port on the OUYA? I find it odd that there has yet to be any hack to allow this port to be used as a second slot. Would be nice to have two active ports that can handle peripherals.

Someone should try out OTG cables to see if that does anything, see if external hard-drives, XBOX 360/PS3/third-party controllers, keyboard/mouse, and other stuff will work. Also try the OTG cable simultaneously with the regular USB port to find some combinations that may work, like an external hard-drive on the USB port and XBOX 360 controller dongle/wired XBOX 360 controller in the micro USB port via OTG cable for an example.


EDIT: Unless you've already done that and it didn't work. (I need to start paying attention to what I'm reading)

I have a OTG cable. I'll play around with your idea in a few hours.
