OUYA is a video game console based on Android expected to go on sale soon at a price of U.S. dollar 99.
For finance the project have resorted to Kickstarter with very good repercussion. In a single day, the guys who have started this ambitious project managed to get the USD 950.000 that had been proposed and they are already worth 4 and a half million dollars. Amazing! |
The creators of Ouya define themselves as "true lovers of video games" and will make use of the Android operating system to take advantage of all the available software and above all the great community and existing knowledge, a strong and safe bet that is already bearing its first fruits.
The console will have a Tegra 3 processor from Nvidia, 1GB of Ram, 8GB of internal storage, HDMI connection for televisions, Wifi, Bluetooth LE 4.0, wireless controls and the Android 4.0 operating system, really very good specifications, saving the storage aspect which seems meager, but solvable using a USB disk.
In addition, it has a very important strength: it is completely open. Anyone can create their own accessories and connect them via USB or Bluetooth and there is no software limitation. Best of all, they won't make excuses to avoid warranty claims, and are even willing to provide the hardware design to anyone who asks.
The possibility of having a console without restrictions on its functionality is something that video game consumers have been asking for for a long time. We hope that many of them will see their wishes fulfilled with this great initiative and serve to teach the big video game companies that the rules of the game are changing.

That is unnecessary, it does not matter if it is a man or a woman.
Go listen to reggaeton and stop making those comments.
I really like people who treat women like objects
Great example!!
Soon, Free Hardware Boys !!
where is that link, Uhrman is not saying anything like that, you can clarify and put links
apa ... this is new .. here they came out to deny what I said before, perfect haha
"I will be very clear, OUYA is not
looking for additional funds outside of Kickstarter. Our priority is
continue the focus of building a great video game console,
supported by the ongoing Kickstarter campaign, ”says Uhrman and tells
that the initial impulse was given with collaborations of friends and family
of those involved, while Digg founder Jay Adelson
contributed a large sum of money, as did Joe Greenstein of
Flixster and Hosain Rahman of Jawbone. The executive continues to clarify
that there is no intention of engaging in conversations to inject more
capital to the project, as long as the Kickstarter campaign remains active, and
that investors will not be called as soon as the
collection: “The only priority once the campaign ends in
Kickstarter, will launch OUYA to the market, and offer the best experience
possible. Finding more funds is not at the top of our list of
slopes." - The project director said it. (that to all this was not a guy but a mine, jewel! haha)
Yes, but beware, the news came out yesterday that it was all a bubble, the guy in charge of the development said that the kickstarter thing was to attract the attention of real capitals, with 4 million they do nothing, I mean .. Fuck it ! I think this died there. a shame-
Hala, so the Taliban can play on console, which is where you have to play
Interesting, very good idea, in addition to that this can help Linux, since the Linux kernel includes the development of android, which could mean that in the future this development can be used in Linux ... Also, I think it is very good that it is completely Free, as the founder says, open to hackers to make optimizations, without a doubt they hope that a community will be created in addition to those that already exist around this console.
Hopefully it goes well for them, they already have a difficult time with the amount of competition in smart TVs that by default almost are a console with Android even so it is good to see that there are new proposals and that they are open.
It would be great to go ahead and hopefully it reaches Latin countries too
