GameStick Is Looking To Give Ouya A Run For Its Kickstarter Money
GameStick is a new gaming console seeking investors on Kickstarter, and it looks like it may be Ouya's main competitor.
Both GameStick and Ouya are consoles designed to be played on a television that work with the Android ecosystem. It seems that the big advantage of the GameStick, is its size. In the image above, you can see that the piece that looks like a thumb drive actually has an HDMI output on it. That's the console, and it fits inside the controller for safe keeping.
The GameStick Kickstarter posted only two days ago, and it has already nearly doubled its Kickstarer goal. You can still invest though, and if you give $79 or more, you will get a GameStick when it releases. You can head here to check out the full pitch video.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
