That doesn't mean OUYA is an Android port. You can create the next big title in your bedroom – just like the good old days! Who needs pants!?

I'm sold! :p

I stand corrected, and I agree the shut down of Bleem was justified, its one thing to make an emulator but it is another to try to commercialize it without permission.

I'm not going to bother correcting that last post.

If it didn't use any original code from the PS1 there is no reason to try shutting it down and in the end they won but where forced out of businesses through the high cost of the lawsuits.

And that in term reminds me of the OpenPandora

Really awesome hand held it too is designed for emulation and gaming, I would get it if I could afford it :/

Me too. Pantslessness has really been missing from recent game development.

Wow, that is a beautiful system. I never heard of it...amazing. Like u, i cant afford it either :(

I mean, i just bought myself a great desktop from Gateway for Xmas from Newegg for $400. My specs are AMD A8-3820 quad core with Radeon HD 6550D integrated graphics, 6Gb ram, 1Tb HDD. It can play all the new games in medium setting (Skyrim, Battlefield3, Crysis2, etc).

Pandora is a fantastic system and if i was a rich gamer with money to burn, i would definitely buy one for sure. But, im a budget gamer and my new Gateway has to serve all my gaming needs for the next 4 years.

The Pandora is really nice, but the cost kept me from ever considering one too. For my portable emulation fix a hacked PSP is a fine option. Plus you can rip your UMDs to a memory stick as a bonus.

Yeah. I'm not a Sony fan either, but the system had enough games that it was worth getting to me. Also I got it before the "SUE EVERYONE!" phase.

Now imagine the world 30 years from now... huge datacenters processing data for us faster than we could blink, and making that data available to us on our systems, windows, toiler paper...

So nice! The future is exciting!

Do you mean OnLive? I'm glad it died a painful and agonizing dead. That kind of service is way ahead of its time. I say try again in 10 years and maybe it will catch on.

Edit: also, you sound like this guy.

I said 30. :p

Music is already there, more or less... streaming services are better every day. Video material, thanks to Netflix, Vimeo, YouTube is also moving towards that direction. Books are almost there too.

And I wasn't talking about gaming specifically, but general stuff, you need huge amounts of data processed, like a few hours of video encoded specifically for your portable device, you'd just upload the video, and it would get encoded and downloaded on your portable device very fast.

... and bla bla bla going to bed.

EDIT: And out existence has a purpose! :p Get drunk, have fun with girls, work to pay back society for giving you drinks and girls, get drunk, have...

That's a sweet little system, but damn! I paid about as much for my lappie for what the lower tier model goes. It's definitely nothing I could consider a justifiable purchase by any means.

I think it's great. Maybe the big boys (Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo) will have to totally re-think their business strategy. Rule # 1 Competition is always a good thing. I hope this new platform suceeds.

I don't stream music, I don't stream movies, and I don't stream video games. The future you are talking about is nothing I want to spend a single cent of my money on, period.

I dunno, it's going to be plug and play and likely have a lot of free games. As much as elitist gamers complain, most mainstream gamers actually do have a smart phone with Angry Birds on it.

Low cost plus free/low cost content will likely be enough to drive it. And gamers have proven time and again that a single killer app will move a low priced console if it's good enough.
