In the end, yes, it's a cube that plays games. Is the Ouya just another gadget to tinker with and soon forget about, or is it a machine that will find its fit in your gaming life? To answer that, here's an idea of what it’s like to own an Ouya, with some insight into the games you can play and what lies ahead. Still, that's money that could be otherwise put toward games for other platforms or newer, more powerful hardware. In fact, it's perched up right next to the rest of the consoles I own-which are collecting dust these days.Īt $100, Ouya is practically an impulse buy even compared to aging consoles like the Xbox 360 and PS3 (to say nothing of this holiday's upcoming high-powered entrants). From emulators to the kind of independent games made by rookie developers with big ideas, Ouya's idea of gaming fits in perfectly in my living room. In that time, I've found myself addicted, quickly rushing through my day’s task list to get even just a few minutes to play a game. Ouya began shipping out early units to Kickstarter backers starting in March, and we got our hands on one such model about a month ago (Kickstarter units differ slightly from the final retail units, which we just got our hands on a few days ago and haven't had time to evaluate as fully). But now the system has to prove itself again, in essence, by going past the early adopters and selling to the mainstream consumers that can pick it up in retail stores like Best Buy, GameStop, Walmart, and Target (and online retailers like Amazon) starting today. Equally eager private investors brought millions more.

The Android-based Ouya game console is one of the biggest crowdfunding success stories so far, with nearly $8.6 million raised from eager backers before the system's specs were even finalized.
