refined
fun
instantly playable local multiplayer
simple
quick
comfortable to use
Performance is decent enough
Load times are speedy all around
The video quality of the stream is excellent
system's best games are undoubtedly a good time
Ouya really is easy to resist

several failed attempts to download a required firmware update
marred by design missteps and a lack of compelling content
it failing to complete the firmware download in one go
glaring performance and ergonomic issues
Ouya still lacks critical entertainment apps
D-pad is too soft and its trackpad too sensitive
the Ouya continues to subsist on opportunity and not execution
Syncing controllers is unreliable and finicky
no non-Ouya controller has a touchpad like
the Ouya's controller is awful
Experience The Ouya can confound from the moment it leaves the box
do badly at all on measures of CPU power
There are no Start or Select/Back buttons
even fixed sideloading software is difficult
Ouya's game store is severely lacking
USB storage is not consistently supported
The triggers are a little mushy
the interface is a mess
lag between the controller and the console
the device is currently being sold as a product
not a prototype
RTX 4090 power adapter and only one is experiencing issues
Ouya does not reach even Xbox 360 levels of graphical sophistication
There s currently no option to change the background
additional instability in the interface or games after long sessions
the cheap controller and underpowered system architecture
sparse
bare-bones quality to the interface
lack of optimisation results in unstable performance
Ouya refuses to play ball with the official Google Play app
dirt-cheap prices
lacks the same app and game support offered by other Android devices
Ouya is lagging behind the current crop of Android handsets
shoulder buttons offer a spongy
unpleasant press
which makes this peripheral seem extremely cheap
it cracked the dam of the closed console norm
poor optimization
the performance comes off as unstable
spending a fortune on used cartridges
playing Emulators on your TV or watching Twitch in the living room
Consoles are not personal computers
Not Play Obsidian s Killer Narrative Game While
also requires an HDMI cable and a power cord
console expectations that they are failing to meet
have a soft spot for interactive lunacy

Ouya: The Kotaku Review

If I was writing a book of personal gaming records, I'd mark up a page for the Ouya: New console that stayed in the box, unplayed, longer than any other one I've ever had. Three days. Sealed. No urgency to play the tiniest console I've ever seen. It's so tiny, yet I still wasn't sure I had room for it in my life.

The Ouya could be a great, inexpensive Android-based gaming system for everyone. Right now, though, it isn't even close.

Huge disruptive potential not yet realized

The Ouya gaming console ships with oodles of potential, but thanks to its lack of refinement and weak game library, interested parties should give it time to work out its kinks.
