During the GameStop Expo, pretty much every Android console maker was there. Ouya, of course, would be one of those companies and the biggest thing they were promoting was the upcoming The Walking Dead game which TellTale Games will be bringing to Ouya later this year.
Ouya had released a new commercial video on their YouTube account which got pulled from their YouTube account rather quickly. We aren’t sure if Ouya pulled it themselves or what happened, although we think that is indeed the case, the video has already been hosted on another user’s account for the rest of the world to watch still and wonder what in the hell Ouya was thinking with this commercial.
We’ve talked about the open source media player XBMC and that it would be making its way to the Android-powered game console Ouya at some point when a stable version of the application actually exists. Well it seems that a stable version has finally been compiled and the XBMC media player is now officially available for download through Ouya’s marketplace.
Welcome to a new installment into our Ouya Game Watch series of articles. In these article we just point out a few games that are usually new to Ouya tha you should probably check out. This week we’ve already seen some pretty nice titles landing on the Ouya marketplace and the selection on there is starting to get real good.
Ouya has been working hard on getting exclusive content for their Android-powered game console with programs such as starting up the $1 million fund for developers who get successfully funded on Kickstarter for their Ouya game. The company also courts a lot of developers as well and invests in them in order to bring their games to Ouya as either a temporary or permanent exclusive.
With XBMC for Android soon being available for both Android devices as well as the Ouya and GameStick consoles, the developers have been hard at work adding new features to the application. In the latest pre-release build, XBMC now comes with support for Apple’s Airplay as well as a variety of other new features and fixes.
While we were going to fire up our Ouya and do this ourselves, it seems someone has beaten us to the punch and has loaded the brand new high speed Nintendo DS emulator DraStic onto the Android-powered console. According to a user going by the name of MobileDecay (dig the name by the way), the DraStic emulator runs rather nicely on Ouya.
DotEmu has launched their first title for the Android-powered game console Ouya today and this first title is actually a package deal. Raiden Legacy, which is currently available on Google Play as well, contains four Raiden games: Raiden, Raiden Fighters, Raiden Fighters 2 and Raiden Fighters Jet.
If you follow the gaming news in a general sense then you’ve probably read about Phil Fish quitting making games, cancelling Fez 2 and all that good weird drama-filled stuff that makes the internet both a good and bad place. Well even though it does suck that Mr. Fish will be quitting, regardless of the stance anyone has regarding the issues surrounding it or what you think of the guy himself, it appears that the planned ports of the original game are still going to happen.
Double Fine already has a couple of games slated for release onto Android as well as Ouya although they seem to still be in development right now and taking much longer than anticipated. However, they do have other titles already developed for other platforms and one such game is called Dropchord.
