All i got my ouya for was for the emulators. Other than that I haven't downloaded anything from the market. Nor do I plan to.

I always thought the Ouya looked kind of neat, but how do you put funds on it without a credit card?

And my "worthless" opinion still stands. I know several people that got it and have already returned / sold it. Oh well, nice try, nnneexxxttt!

OMG!!! Look at tablets??? Mom and dads use them for work, Kids play on them cause they are there.... Not many people buys tablets for just gaming, Cell phones!!! people don't get there new phone to play games, they play free games cause it's there...Most only plays these apps cause they are already on a tablet or phone that they bought to do something other on....Take OUYA most people not going to buy something to just play Apps on... heck I'm a die-hard gamer, My I-phone bought to make phone calls play games when I'm bored,. My tablet use for work, Grandson plays games on it cause He can,..I play games on my Xbox 360 & Ps3...soon to be Xbox1....

My interest in wanting to get one is solely to develop games on the device.

I think another huge turn off for people is the fact that OUYA is an android based gaming console, and the fact that OUYA games can't carry over to your other android devices (tablets or phones) is a huge mistake. What they should do is what Amazon did and create their own store, that can be side loaded onto any android device. That way they can play purchased OUYA games in an OUYA environment wherever they are. Then the draw comes from knowing that you could have a better experience on the actual console than using janky emulated controls on your mobile device of choice.

Why is GI hatin' on emulators? Its not like you can't use them on your Smart Phone right from Apple's and Google's Online Stores or from tablets, computers and all sorts of other devices.

For what its worth if I were to purchase an Ouya I'd do so for its multimedia capabilities (XBMC) hopefully VLC in the future. It would be a cheap way to stream media to your television and not be limited to some crappy built-in interface like the D-Link boxes or the "Smart TV" interfaces with loads of DRM and no ability to add new sources of streaming media when they come out.

If I were to purchase an Ouya it would not be for gaming.

Man thats bleak

Not suprised, most people have smartphones to play this games. IMO, Android based consoles are destined to be a failure, might as well get an android phone that can do more. And now with Mad Catz releasing a console, which I personally think is going to be yet another flop, and with Valve's steambox, which I think I read they are licensing multiple companies to make different steamboxes (Stupid, IMO, just make your own, Valve, the one and only steambox) the market is going to become oversaturated with consoles, I think people should just stick to the big 3, but of course this is just my opinion.

So... if they aren't buying games, then why have the console? The console will die if they don't buy anything.

This is also disappointing. Lots of that in gaming news today, I guess.

I want Ouya to succeed. But when you factor out the Android mobile games (who really expects anyone with an Ouya to buy ANY of those?) they seem to be battling Steam as the indie space. But with PC sales sinking faster than the Titanic, that's not a good plan of attack.

I know they wanted to "disrupt" the console market, whatever that even means, but they should've spent more time getting high quality devs to build some killer games to make it a must-have.

Maybe that's not innovative or forward thinking enough for Ouya, but it is a plan that works.

Why do you guys keep calling emulators Illegal, if you have the roms without the game its illegal. But I guess that shows how much the nes and snes are still loved and adored.

My idea is to promoted the popular games on android market in OUYA add, or provide a list of great games available on android. Like

1. Ported Final Fantasy and Final Fantasy Dimensions
2. Chaos Ring
3. Final Fantasy Dimensions
4. N.O.V.A series
5. Modern Combat series
6. Infinity Blade
7. Covenant of Solitude
8. The Bard's Tale

and so on

This will help OUYA gamer to purchase quality games and save them from the pain trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Over-entitled idiots that want a socialist free-for all console are the people that buy Ouya. It's their mindset/personality. Those that do PC gaming have to the mindset of I earned what I paid for because "I realize it costs to be entertained since I EARN a living."

In honestly not surprised. I never expected the Ouya to do well. I hope it finds success but with free to play games you need a lot of people playing it to make a profit, and not enough people own it for most games to succeed. It almost reminds me of Nintendos situation only Ouya has even less hope in my opinion.

Well that sucks, but is anyone really that surprised?

What about the NES, SNES, Gameboy, etc ... emulators for Android and iOS devices? Are they somehow different from the ones mentioned on the Ouya?

I'd love an all-in-one emulator and HTPC mini box; it could replace that crappy DVD player setup in the old Ford.

What?! So what are people doing with their Ouyas now? Just sitting and staring at them full of buyer's remorse?!. . . That's utterly sad for Ouya's designers I guess. Can say that I saved my $100 though.

not suprising at all considering most ppl only went with getting 1 ( least 1s i noticed) because it has ' a bunch of free games that u can use a controller with for only 100 bucks'

I haven't paid for a single game yet.  But will be with the $13.37 they gave me.
