Anyone else getting an OUYA? It's garnered a bit of press recently - with announcements that it'll be carried by Best Buy, Target, Gamestop, and Amazon, and also that it'll receive yearly hardware updates - a move that has angered a lot of backers.
I backed the Kickstarter and am looking forward to getting it next month. I plan to use it mostly as an emulator box and media consumption device. I'll also grab any good indie games on it and - if I find the time - I would like to try my hand at designing a simple game or two as well. Anyone else?
I have no intention of picking one up, but I am intrigued by it all. I've only recently become interested in gaming again in the last few years and picked up a 3DS last year. I plan to stick with just that for quite awhile. I can understand the anger that some of the backers would feel over the news that they plan to come out with a new one each year. It's rather cheap, but even then I don't think I'd want to buy a new one every year. Then again, I know people that get a new phone every year or two, so maybe it'll just be like that. Please do post about it once you get it and have some time to play. There are a lot of people that seem excited for it, but I'm curious how it will do when most people seem to be split between gaming on PC or consoles vs mobile gaming on phones and tablets.
