Anotther question: this box can rooted?

Yes they can, mine came pre rooted. I think (depending on where you get them) all of them are. I know they are on Ebay anyway (in the UK)

Interesting... Well if you want to "transform" your box into a ouya just see this tutorial from lighty:

Will definitely give that a go at some point. Still working my way around it to be honest. Am thinking about buying a USB hub for it but not sure how android devices play with USB hubs, anyone know? I want to connect multiple controllers to it for multiplayer gaming.

I have got on my ouya connected a usb hub with a keyboard and moused and a pendrive 16gb connected! It works pretty fine! If you started geting problem with usb maybe you need a external power source for your hub

If that happens then just plug it into your TVs USB port.

From the ouya store... Or from the playstore?

 

[freestile]

Yeah I rooted mine. I love it. Play store works great, and I can't complain about the selection of games on the Ouya store as well.
Theres some free ones just gotta look around.
