Ouya On Sale For $59
Update: Unfortunately, this deal has now expired.
[Original Story]
A new coupon code allows you to pick-up the Kickstarter-funded Android console for a bargain price.
Ouya was already positioned as a low-cost alternative to the current consoles on the market, and now its price just dropped. To commemorate the launch of the game Killing Floor: Calamity (developed by Tripwire Interactive), you can input the code "calamity" on the Ouya sales page and get a unit for $59.99 plus free shipping. (You'll have to go through most of the buying process before you can enter the code.)
This sale likely won't be permanent, so act fast if you want to take advantage.

Our Take:
At $59.99, the Ouya verges even further into the realm of "impulse buy." Heck, it's as cheap as a new game for another console. While I'm not sure that the Ouya has much of a future, at this point if you just want to run emulators on your TV and play Towerfall it's probably a decent buy.
