New Ouya's are available for purchase on the store. I received an email last night that said it was a limited quantity so get them while you can!

Aha! But you didn't check the store.
They are not new. They are new-ish. They are brushed metal units and may be in previously opened boxes.
Best guess is they are returns from Target.
Demos. Don't let them try and more will buy; does it matter if they are happy?
The attitude the developer has displayed toward me by not providing a demo is reciprocated by me not patronizing them.
DRM. Insulting and punishing customers equals increased sales, right?
The attitude the developer has displayed toward me by requiring that I constantly prove I'm not a thief is reciprocated by me not patronizing them.
Ok so like he said. They are not new. Open box units. Nothing to see here. Move along lol

Stock returns are not refurbs.
Damn sorry I posted about the fucking things lol
GameStop also has used Ouyas, $60 free shipping. http://www.gamestop.com/consoles/ouy...rbished/113434
I went and looked because I was thinking of ordering one, and then I read the only review. He/she has the term "laxative smoothness" in it ya'll. Win!Originally Posted by RichRuns

Did you buy this product for yourself or someone else? For me
This is not the cat's meow. PUNS! Working full time as a genius is hard work, and as I develop Java games for handheld mobile devices, I expected nothing but the best. And, that's what I wanted to get. But, I didn't. I got Ouya.
The benefit of this... thing, is that it made me hone my craft to a razor point. Now my java apps will run on anything with laxative smoothness because they can run on Ouya. I recommend this as the beta test module for any game dev. If it can work on this pile of garbage it will work on anything.
The limited quantity and open box stuff looks like slightly hidden fine print because otherwise it just looks like they are back in the store. Anyway, this makes how long they were out of stock look stranger because before I was wondering what was taking them so long to manufacture more and now I'm wondering why they are offering open boxed ones instead of newly manufactured ones. This and the issue with the Reading Rainbow OUYA's makes it look like it is just as hard for OUYA Inc. to get a hold of brand new OUYA's as it is for the consumers.
@Schiz: IMO, because they have stopped making them since Nov-Dec, and are running out all remaining stock including returns and refurbs(gamestop). Which to be frank, is exactly what everyone is thinking right now. I suspect (hope) it's because the Ouya 2 is near. Cross fingers (hopefully they weren't scared off by the Shield announcement)
