someone please build a ouya-likey thing but without processor, just a I/O controller. Let me connect my smartphone to it. just a small box that's connected to my tv and maps the controller input to the phone.

there is no need for a dedicated android console when there are already shitloads of smartphones out there.


So basically you want a phone with an HDMI port, just hook it up with a cable to a TV and map a PS3/whatever controller and bam.


maybe that is what i am thinking of now. well it's not like i really want that because most of the games for android aren't good. i haven't found a game with any depth yet, maybe it's because touch only controls. but a home 'station' (its not really a console) could expand the possibilities for developers.

honestly i think apple / samsung should do what i described. it has to be a buyable, advertisable product from one of the big players to succeed.

There are a lot of emulators on android including PSOne/N64/GBA/SNES/etc, I use my GS4 as a portable console I take with me when I feel like playing on a big screen. Also, games like MC4 are really fun and have controller support, I use my MOGA Pro

Android based gaming console that plays games like Contra Evolution on your HDTV @ 1080p also plays apps, media players, and emulators. Maybe some other things too.

Flip Riders =  Excitebike with stunts?

Final Fantasy 3

Sonic Jump & Sonic 4

I have never seen one of those Oyeah machines in stores



That on it´s own doesn´t say much. The console is not sold at retailers, it´s an online only item.

By the way i´ve noticed the thing sell relatively well on Amazon Canada! What gives?
