Yeah true that. From what some of the comments seem to be saying is that there willing to upgrade the SOC to K1 but they want to increase the cost of the pledge I think. Like an extra $100 or something and quite frankly with Shield being a $100 less then that and the specs on Shield being better thats what I'm with in the end. If these guys can go solo with this controller I can see myself getting at least 2 of these if they were anywhere from $50-60, maybe even $65. Other then that looks like I'm with Shield and Ouya although that Razer is still looking nice too. Shield, Ouya 2 and Razer will probably be my new toys at the end of the year. Zrro box is just a little weak for me. If the box was better out the box (lol!!) then it wouldnt be that bad for the price. Hope to see the controller get solo one these days.I know it will never be perfect and the latency will always be there, but if I could get one of these controllers by itself for like $50-60 bucks I'd get it. Other then that I dont think I have an interest for this much more then the controller. Shields specs are worth it for me because even though the other devices that I have now can do some of the things it can do, it can do them better. Not to mention I skipped the last two generations of consoles, so I think I can afford to spend $199 on something I'll probably actually use more for then just gaming. I do plan to game with it though, but on the other hand I got alot of catching up to do on some Ouya gaming as I anxiously await for Ouya 2.
