One thing that really annoys me about my Ouya is the update process. Maybe the problem is that my router is in the other room, but updating over wifi fails every time. I let it sit there for more than an hour and the progress was still at 10%. Apparently you can update via USB, but it's not easy at all.

My favorite games are Bomb Squad and Towerfall. Now that these are out on PC, the console feels less necessary to me. On the other hand, we've also had a ton of fun playing No Brakes Valet and Hidden in Plain Sight.

Its pretty easy... you just need a PC and a micro USB cable...
If you want more help just send me a PM
 
Yeah but rooting and edits make it better though but still your still probable better off just buying a shield or tablet and using a controller plus hdmi


Have a Nexus 7 here, Wii remote (classic controller) rooted, runs emulators perfectly, even PPSSPP.

The OUYA have a special thing than other game consoles haven't got! The Ouya developer account its free and easy to create (More easy than the GBATEMP website xD) that means its the best place to play some indie games! (like mine game)

That can be said about every Android device. As far as controllers go, I would like the OUYA to be like the Wii. They should keep the overall controller design but add a start and select. Additionally, a motion controller would be nice.

Motion controls would drive up the cost to much id q0guess plus it would probably make playstore to ouya ports harder
 
Yeah its a great deal... The only problem i see on M.O.J.O. Its the community is poor... You can more cools mods in the ouya comunity than the M.O.J.O. ... But if you only want great hardware specs and play some ouya games on it... The mojo its the right chooice... But i still recomend ouya (and some people are creating a custom rom with android 5.0. And the mojo will "die" with the android 4.2)

Yeah ouya is a much better community than mojo plus when ouya came out people were excited about the micro console idea while when mojo came out it wasn't really notable but yeah I still would say get an ouya and spend some cash on a better controller rather than a mojo atleast untill a micro console comes out with k1

Anotther cool thing about the ouya is the game development!

Its really easy to make games for the console (the wii game development ITS REALLY HARD)... The ouya website have all the documentation you need to start developing games! (with or without coding)

Also it seems like ouya has a lot less shovel ware then the playstore has which makes me think of the tegrazone(but unlike tegrazone the games are free!)

Can i be honest about the playstore in the ouya?

80% of the games from playstore sucks (if you don't tincore profile)
Because these 80% are games made for touchscreen not for controllers.

The other 20% are games like (the walking dead, riptide gp, dead trigger...) games who work fine but seriously i prefer the ouya store because ALL the games are made only for ouya! (and someones run on mojo too)

Anotther cool thing from ouya is the free to try option! (seriously nintendo needs that option on the eshop)

What the free to try means? Well every game have got a playable demo... And some games are totally free (like mine)
 
Free to try isn't exactly enforced on OUYA anymore but it was nice when it was. I really wish that the bigger Android devs would do work on the OUYA. I would like to see the platform and Nintendo move side by side in the low end gaming field. I just hope that the next OUYA will include a K1 chip from Nvidia.

Yeah belive too! If the future ouya2 didn't have got a nvidia k1 the ouya2 will be a flop/fail!
 
A high quality snapdragon (like 810) would be great if k1 doesn't happen only issue is the better the processor the higher the cost.

Snapdragon cpus are not great for gaming...

I think ouya inc is planing to make a new console with the nvidia tegra k1.

The nvidia k1 its really powerful for AAA games (like asphalt8) ... And if we get that gpu/cpu (yeah they are 2 in 1) maybe will be able to play some kind of pc games... Because the nvidia k1 is similar to a geforce gpu (from pc)

Yeah but there are a few tabs that use snapdragon and are pretty good in gaming..
Eitherway k1 (or tegra 4 for that matter) already have had games like portal,half life, and others so more PC ports can happen as you can basically play games up to about 05
