    This thread got me thinking and I just did one of those write ups on the Ouya and it's failure while inspiring other systems since to do things far better like that MOJO mad katz put out.

    Update on the Reading Rainbow Ouya situation. Today they sent out an e-mail offering backers of the RR Kickstarter who selected an Ouya for their pledge reward the option of a refund or a "new" Ouya signed by Levar Burton, second controller and $10 game credit when the "new" Ouya is released at some point in the future. Apparently, they (the Reading Rainbow Kickstarter team) now claim that Ouya gave them a firm deadline of the end of last Summer for when production on the old Ouya would end and because they missed it, it wasn't possible to order the small quantity (500) sky blue Ouyas. I have opted for a refund as it won't be a special color and I don't really care about Levar Burton's autograph, but it's interesting to hear that there may be a "new" Ouya coming down the pipeline at some point in the future. I also apologize for blaming Ouya when it appears as though it was the Kickstarter team from Reading Rainbow that missed the deadline.

    I did get one...two as a matter of fact. I love them...that is after you navigate them and figure out the emulation (which is not self-explanatory). It's a little clunky, but, if you want to emulate classic games on your TV, it's worth the $100.
    George Plimpton was right! But who the hell is George Plimpton???

    Use the rob brolgia .emu series. present the others don't even exist. that's how you get the most out of the Ouya's emulators.

    Agreed that guy knows his stuff. I've got his port of SNES9Xex+ on my nexus 7 and it's fantastic. I put Civilization SNES on there about a week ago and I noticed the thing supports the mouse and man it works SUPER well to the point I feel like I'm using an official touch based Civ port to Android.
