OUYA Should Be Taken More Seriously By Core Gamers

Everyone seems to be dismissing this console as a system that only plays android games.....NOT TRUE.

Playing andorid games on it's android jellybean O.S. is a small part of the systems software and hardware capabilities.

It's already been confirmed that they will support Onlive, they will also have a multiple emulator channel built in for all previous console games to be enjoyed.

10,000 developers have already signed up and been given dev kits, 450 titles have been reported as being ready to play by launch day.

Hu-lu, Google, Netflix have also climbed on board the OUYA train.

In a recent press conference at D.I.C.E. Julie Urhman CEO of OUYA, cleverly stated that GTA-5 cost 160-million to make, over 13 million to market, and they need to sell X amount of units before they see a profit, which she went on to admit, will most likely very well happen because of what a hit series the GTA games are.

It's also the high costing prices like this that are causing the closing and buy outs of game dev studios over the past few years.

However it's the cost that OUYA is able to eliminate for both dev's and gamers...The OUYA people do not charge to develop on there console, and they allow the dev's to charge as little or as much as they want for their games...She also went on to discuss the drought of new IP's on all the latest consoles...which we all know is true.

When is the last time PS3, 360 or Wii-U had a new AAA IP, it's nothing but sequel after sequel after sequel...it's time for something new and unique.

I don't know about anyone else in here but i'm 44 years old with a wife and 2 kids and my 12 year old son plays his C.O.D. on Xbox 360 everyday, whereas i myself who has been gaming for 34 years can not afford an additional 360 or PS3 in the house and support libraries for both.

OUYA is the answer for me personally, it is a mere $99 and games are from the 0.99 to $9.99 range, and in my situation thats what i need, not to mention i feel that veteran gamers in my age range deserve to play for less without losing anything graphically or with gameplay quality.

I've spent the past 2 months researching and watching the media and internet articles, news stories and video's of press conferences and gameplay footage of all things OUYA, and i'm telling you, it will be a serious alternative to the pricier boxes about to be announced at E3....whether anyone in this forum wants to believe it or not.

no it shouldn't

[Ok neither one of the first two replies even took the time to read my post...because it was posted all of 30 seconds before you replied, you just read the title of the thread and replied soley on the title alone so therefore i won't acknowledge your response seriously.Slimmin360

Yup, I read it. It was posted 2 minutes before my reply. Where did you learn to read?

[QUOTE="lundy86_4"]

Meh, not really.

Slimmin360

Because a lot of us know what the system is by now, what it can do and what it offers. We still don't care about it, regardless of your reasons in the OP. A lot of people have already formed their opinions of it

Should food found in the garbage bin of a big restuarant be taken seriously by someone that likes gourme food ?

I dont think so

Don't really care about it.

This is the first time I've heard of it.

The lower price factored in with the original Wii sales over the 360 and PS3 and it will factor in all over again with the OUYA, we're in a recession and parents will buy whats cheaper come holiday season just like they always do, and hardcore gamer purchases won't make a dent in the OUYA sales just like it didn't with the 360 & PS3 over Wii sales the first 3 years of it's release.

and when/if it doesnt happen, what then?

I will get a OUYA also when its released, or within 6 months after release.

For $99 it is a decent price considering there will be a few great Indie exlclusives on OUYA.

Whats really great about the OUYA is we will see tons of Emulators on it. Nintendo, SNES, N64, PS1, Sega Genesis/32X/CD/Masters System and the best of them all MAME and many others.

So you get some great exclusive Indie titles down the line and better OUYA devloped android versions of games, along with a good amount of great emulation gaming.

For $99 sounds like a good deal and also you can sync your PS3 or 360 Controllers, so no need to buy extra Controllers.

Good for those people who formed there opinions...too bad none of those opinions matter, once they notice that the OUYA is flying off the store shelves ahead of there precious Xbox's and PS4's because it's only $100 to their $300 to $500 price tag.

Slimmin360

You aren't making sense. Those opinions matter to the individuals interested in buying the system, or not. How much it sells is irrelevant if the individual is not interested. Duh!

The lower price factored in with the original Wii sales over the 360 and PS3 and it will factor in all over again with the OUYA, we're in a recession and parents will buy whats cheaper come holiday season just like they always do, and hardcore gamer purchases won't make a dent in the OUYA sales just like it didn't with the 360 & PS3 over Wii sales the first 3 years of it's release.

Bu-Bu- What if?

Maybe?

It could do.

You never know.

That makes very little sense. If a person doesn't like the library of games the system offers then they should just buy it because everyone else is? :?

Android and "serious" in the same sentence. 

No because Cell phones releasing today have better specs than the thing. My phone can do everything the Ouya can do AND i can even hook it up to my HDTV and use a PS3 controller with it.

Everything the ouya can do my Phone can do better.

Also my phone has more Useful applications and hardware than the ouya.

IMHO If you have an Xbox 360 or PS3 + a smartphone made within the last 2 years the Ouya is useless.

ALSO do add to your little rant OP most of the games being released on Oya Can already be played on a Combination of PC/SmartPhone/Console.  Its one useless device.

[QUOTE="lostrib"]

[QUOTE="Slimmin360"] AHH i can't wait, i can't friggin' wait, please someone save my post so i can brag in a years time about the sales numbers of the OUYA over the PS4 and next XBOX. Then all of you who claim to have never heard of it or don't care about it will be eating your words, if you canget your feet out of your mouth long enough to admit you were wrong.Slimmin360

Ouya games wont even be on ps3/360 level.  Not to mention if you cant spend more then 9.99 for a new game you may want to consider a different hobby.

LOL the person who started this topic was a shill.

Ouya, I don't know, but Nvidia SHIELD, probably.

Edit:  Also, for those that haven't heard of it, there's BlueStacks that lets you run 'mobile apps' on Windows and Mac:
