    Yes, I believe there are others but I'm not one of them. Getting tired of FPS interactive movies is one of the reasons I like the OUYA.

    A lot of that is because we aren't playing them on CRT's. The developers have to simulate CRT effects and retro style graphics on today's inferior display technologies and because these technologies are so inferior it is a challenge to make them display images that could have been displayed 30 years ago. It is the TV manufacturers' fault that they don't look exactly like the games you played growing up. It isn't the fault of the developers. They have to deal with the limitations of 21st century display technology. Anyway, I bought and played RADIANT for hours yesterday. Hexage did a wonderful job simulating these effects. The game is beautiful. It looks umm... radiant.

    Because there are so few on other consoles, most OUYA owners are old enough to know that retro gaming is gaming, retro graphics look better, and OUYA developers rock.

    The number is unknown at this time. Once it is impossible to make one without it being an exact clone of another then we will know. There is the possibility that the matter/energy required to create them all could be greater than all the matter/energy in the Universe. We may have to use all the matter/energy to create a Universe sized quantum computer that is able to access all the retro games of the Multiverse. If the OUYA gets external storage in time for Christmas then it will be more likely that the Universe sized quantum computer will eventually get created. I predict that they will name it the OUYA 1337 Googolplex.

    I'm not doubting that the game is good, however, as its multi player only, it cannot be the most popular Ouya game because it cuts off a massive part of the audience who cannot play multi player as they only have one controller or nobody to play with.

    If you like the game, but not enough to buy it, don't be offended. It's just economics. If the developer thinks they can make more money by having a higher price and less customers, great!

    Great for him, not for the customers.

    Jenny has $5 and can buy 3 Oranges or 6 Apples...that's just how economics work. Luckily we don't live in Soviet Russia and have the choice between 2 games each priced at 20 Rubles because that's what they state says all video games should be priced at

    In Soviet Russia the choice was between 2 games, but both were free and the developers dreamed of having potatoes to eat. (Sorry for the offtopic and the little joke, I couldn't help myself.)

    I see a lot of developers stating that the game is not interesting yet not giving any reasons. From a game design view, Towerfall has sound, slightly asymmetrical design. Super Smash Brothers is a well designed game, but there are so many balance issues that the price tag for it at release was unreasonable. It is like playing monopoly and the person that picks the dog piece gets a 5% discount and the person that picks the thimble piece gets $500 when they pass go. I think that it is important to remember that the sales of the game determines the client's satisfaction with the game, not the "artistic" credibility of the game.
