The Escapist Presents: Ouya Unboxing Pages PREV 1 2 | |
Have we seen unboxing videos in the Escapist before? I can't recall having seen any.
I know, eh? How about a 900mAh Li/Io rechargeable battery, they are dirt cheap (especially in volume). Even a 650mAh would do; this is a casual gaming machine anyway, it is not likely one will do a 12-hour Skyrim play. Anyway, let's wait for the actual review :-) | |
Err, what? Wouldn't a real man know that the shiny silver plastic is nothing like gunmetal grey, which is a dark, matte color? You know, like the barrel of a gun? | |
Yeah, not very well, though. That's the point. You can "do" emulators on many things, but making them perform well, or properly emulate the original is a whole other issue. | |
I can play FF7 on my galaxy nexus (still have my original ps1 discs). There's a lil frame dropping here and there...but for the most part works fine. | |
Cool vid. They should have spent more time on the front end and outsourced the controller but hey it's not like I work in HCI or something. | |
Her insistence on shaking everything was disturbing to say the least... OT, Ouya. I kinda like the concept, but I'm still waiting so see it in action. The buttons spelling Ouya was a great idea. Gotta like it. | |
You make a good point. Though, typically, a man should know a real gun by smell and by how it sits in his hands. Here is what we know about colour: http://www.geekinheels.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/how_men_and_women_see_colors.jpg | |
XKCD can do you one better. Obsoive. (Captcha: "little did he know" ... indeed.) | |
I haven't done so myself, but what I posted of a guy playing "Link to the Past" showed at least it can be done. The Tegra 4 is either out or near out and is 6 times the power of Tegra 3. But, given that I have played without issue Bard's Tale at about Xbox original quality, I have to believe the Ouya capable of up to N64 emulation with no problem (Though emulation is more power sucking than a direct port). Honestly, since hearing about "Side loading" the only thing keeping me from getting one is a huge backlog of PS3 games I have to get through before PS4 comes out. | |
Dammit, Escapist, I leave for one week and when I get back your videos are autoplaying? FOR SHAME. OT: That was an underwhelming unpacking, but I didn't expect trinkets and trankets for a US$99 console. Despite my endless snark I look forward for you final verdict on the lil' box. | |
As I eventually opted to not put money towards it but decided to remain interested in what happened to it... Well, let's just say I want to see how this review you mentioned turns out. | |
