Kane99 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Did anyone here pick up the Ouya back when the original Kickstarter happened back in 2012? I never owned one myself, but was interested when it first was released. The controller looks fairly decent, but I heard it wasn't that good of a controller and was said to be poorly made. As well, the Ouya console itself was a glorified android box, most phones of the time could do what it did, and phones to release soon after would already surpass its power. Eventually the company dissolved or closed down, I forget. And now you can probably find these little consoles for cheap all over eBay these days. Do you thin it's worth it for an android gaming device? Or is it too dated to work these days? I figure you could probably easily do some emulation on it too.

killamch89 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I remembered that this thing was getting all kinds of media attention back in the 2010s but I always thought it was a glorified Android device and I was correct. I'm glad it failed quite frankly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpvr Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 I remember the kickstarter, but no, I don’t own the Ouya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokey Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Yeah we have an Ouya laying around somewhere. It never gets used and I don't think we even have the controllers for it anymore. I remember being excited for it due to it's potential in the marketing but, it turned out to be a major flop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lens Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 I was so excited about an ffordable console that could play Android games on my TV. That's a cool feature and it was so cool to experiment in alternative gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remembered reading all the mixed reviews about the controller and the console's performance as well. This made me sceptical about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
