I dont own a gaming consul, always preferred my PC for gaming.  So I have basically missed out on all the back and forth on various platforms, never really cared when netflicks and other ‘home’ uses have been introduced to try to continue to get people to buy new hardware.  Well this could be the beginning of the end with Ouya getting over $8 in kickstarter funding in just a month!  That could be a record in fact.  Clearly there is ALOT of demand for a simple inexpensive gaming system out there. First, lets check out the project on kickstarter.  You only have 3 hours left!

The biggest win is the fact you can hack the box all you want!  not jailbreaking or unlocking or rooting or anything else.  Its yours. You paid for it, you should be able to do what you want!  Nice.

the Ouya will come with a quad-core Tegra 3 processor, 1GB of memory, 8GB of internal flash storage, an HDMI connection for your TV (with built-in support for up to 1080p HD), 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth LE 4.0, USB 2.0, and a wireless controller that has been described as the “the Stradivarius of controllers.”
