New Ouya Owner Here - a little disappointed!

[SlingShot]

While OUYA is nice. All those games you mentioned are great on that nexus 7 you posted from. I have pretty much gone back to tablet gaming. That is where all the great titles are (for now).

I use the OUYA for emulation ...

Hey this controller will work on the Nexus 7 right? It's Bluetooth?

Sort of? It will pair to the device, but the games have to be written with OUYA controller support (Orange Pixel's games do this) or with HID gamepad support and some luck. You could end up with weird stuff like the A button instantly quitting the game, etc. I would guess the list of games this works with would be nearly identical to the list of games that work sideloaded on the OUYA. Some people are using it this way though.

You didn't like your Ouya? Heaven help you. They're gonna eat you alive here. All who do not worship at the altar of Ouya are infidels.

Funny, seeing as that already should've happened, shouldn't it? And yet it didn't. Hmm. Maybe its something other than just a difference of opinion that elicits negative reactions?

We're so tolerant on these forums it's scary. I mean, TheUndefeated only uses this forum for slander.

Exactly. We are very calm except when repeatedly intentionally provoked.

So to sideload I just need to get the apk from the /data/app directory on my nexus 7 into the OUYA and run the apk to install it right?

This is not a fair statement.

If you use this forum ONLY to continually slander the Ouya, including false reasons why it "sucks" i.e. It cannot play Goldeneye 007 N64 (note that it can do this just fine), when you don't even want to own your Ouya anymore and it would get old real quick to anyone. If you voice and debate (correctly) legitimate issues you are having, things are discussed civilly.

Go to a Sony Playstation, Ford Mustang, Apple, or etc forum and act exactly as TheUndefeated has. Let us know what happens.

In most cases, that's correct. In some cases, you may need to also copy the OBB file. In a few cases (DRM), you may need to use something like Titanium Backup to transfer the settings (which will have your registration key) or setup the Google Play store so it can check your license. Lots of stuff works without that though, paid apps included.
