Wii U Mario Kart machine
Xbox One Expensive multimedia player
OUYA LMAO
PlayStation 4 cheap proprietary PC
Oh boy, I remember way too well what happened when the OUYA was running its Kickstarter: thousands of hivemind fedorable virgins started smugging all over the internet as if they were some kind of new prick specie chanting over the "miracle" that was Android and that the OUYA would have destroyed all the other "toys". It was as big as le Linux hivemind when Ubuntu became popular around teenagers.
Now, I know we shouldn't judge companies by their shitty fanbase, but the OUYA developers marched on this pretty hard (warning: gross):
Then, like a serious company, they declined any responsibility and said that they didn't make it once it got heavily criticized by people. And the system itself? It doesn't even stand up by itself because it keeps falling down, the controller sucks and the games suffer from performance issues.
Then of course, le hivemind (the ones that still insisted) changed their speech in "b-but we can play GTA3". Buy one console for one game, sure.
"b-but machine for the emulators!" Hahaha NO.
"b-but multimedia box!" Even WD makes better stuff than that.
Bottomline: the OUYA had too much of an impact to not consider it as a console. The Wii U has no games I'm interested in, the Xbox One is useless in Italy and the PS4 is offering nothing more than my PC does. OUYA wins and may all le hivemind burn.
As for the ones that believed in the project without smugging all over the place: I'm sorry for you. Maybe you'll get luckier with the Arduino.
