It seems like things just keep getting better and better for this little console, first with plenty of content from developers both big and small being made for it, and now some major retail power has been signed on to sell units both online and at physical storefronts.

It is that time once again to announce winners for the previous day’s giveaway in our week long giveaway event. This time our giveaway was for three packs of SteelSeries mobile gaming gear which consists of one (1) SteelSeries Free mobile gaming controller and one (1) Flux Luxury Edition headset in each pack, both made by SteelSeries.
Well it is about that time where we wrap up another giveaway this week and announce the winners. This is the third giveaway so far this week and we feel like we’re just getting started. The prizes only get bigger and better from here on out. So who are the winners for this giveaway?
While OUYA recently announced improvements to the controllers, based on feedback the company has gotten, that will be coming with the Android-based game console, one of their direct competitors has also received a new look based on feedback from backers of their Kickstarter campaign. On top of that, thanks to the successful backing that GameStick received while on Kickstarter, the unit will now come with a docking station as well.
So we have been hinting at some giveaways that we would be holding since the beginning of January with the revealing of our little car and the site redesign. We still have even more goodies up our sleeves for you that will be arriving in the next few weeks and to celebrate all that has happened already and will be happening, we wanted to do some giveaways for our readers.
Who doesn’t love a good DIY project that you can undertake with little more than old stuff you might have laying around the house? For those of you who have been mobile gaming since the days of the original Game Boy and now have jumped to Android in this more recent era, this little project might be right up your alley if you still have that old Game Boy sitting around the house.
While rummaging around the convention center looking for all the Android gaming goodies we went and had a meeting with MHL who we are sure most people are familiar with if you connect your phone to your TV for game playing. If not, we will go over what MHL is a little bit here but the really interesting thing is that they had the Green Throttle controller and game system (currently in beta) available for trying out.
Mad Catz is known for making some of the funkiest looking gaming peripherals known to mankind, with half of them looking like they belong in a Transformers movie. Well the company s expanding their business model and getting into not only the mobile gaming scene but the wireless gaming scene as well in regards to SmartTVs.
For those of you who may have found the original MOGA game controller a bit small to handle, there is good news on the horizon as PowerA has officially announced the MOGA Pro Controller which is a full-sized console-style unit. Remember the other console style controller in the original promo images for the MOGA unit? It’s that one.
For those of you out there who may not really want to carry a controller around with you but still happen to want something a little more tactile to use for your controls when playing games on your Android device, SteelSeries has a new suction-style setup called the Free Touchscreen Gaming Controls which happen to be available on their web store for purchase.
