I'm not sure about the next Xbox but since PS4 will have PS Mobile it will have all the apps that Ouya offers because PS Mobile is essentially the Android Market. Though Ouya is interesting and might find a nice place in the market, I find it hard up to compete with what the PS4 is going to offer as it will be its main home console competition(oh yeah Wii U could get an app store, remember those rumors?). So Ouya isn't going to be unique, just $99. I'm not sure if the Tegra 3 will hold a light up to next gen. This could have been far more epic if it came out last year.

Hmmm.

I would say the nextbox is more set than PS4. Xbox 360 already offers apps.

I have both PS3 and 360. 360 in UK currently offers 26 apps. With more by years end. PS3 offers 6.

If the nextbox uses Windows 8 closely, I would expect hundreds and hundreds if not thousands of apps. Especially with smartglass.

 

These apps are entirely different. There is a reason there are so few on 360 and PS3. It is not the same open development platform to make those or free to make for that matter. Your right about including Xbox 3 in all this, it will most likely have the windows phone app marketplace (that's what they call it right?) and therefore walking side by side with Sony's new tools. Side question, do you know anything about smartglass? Because it seems like developers won't want to waste their time making stuff for it since all it seems to do is what you can already do in a game's pause menu.

Either way Ouya is a bust in my eyes. That Tegra 3 actually isn't going to run things on par with PS3 or 360, better than Wii but Wii U launches this year. Ouya is going to look cheap and only play crappy games in comparison to everything in the market. It is not unique and it can't price itself to be appealing as current gen consoles will match or become close by the time it launches. It has lost all relevancy.
