Console does not boot properly - ID: 23 Details: During my initial setup it absorbed my housecat and spun its flesh into an abject horror of ambulation. It is currently at-large in the neighbourhood, having consumed the prize flowerbed of my next-door neighbour, the husband of the same, three dogs, two cats, and the local mailman. Requesting replacement unit if possible, as the firmware seems to be corrupted by something from outside the sphere of mortal knowledge. If return of the defective unit is required for replacement, it answers to "Mr. Tiddles" and you are welcome to come claim it yourselves.

I was going to make a joke about Jeff Minter/Yak making an OUYA game and it would be the only worthwhile game on there, but I think after 3 incidents of that (Jaguar, Nuon and the canceled Konix Multisystem) he's probably learned his lesson.

I'm pretty sure this is going to be a huge disaster, but I don't get how they've managed to wrangle selling this heap of poo poo in actual stores. Critical Thinking must be really rare these days because the only way I can imagine this happened is they just gobbled up every piece of bullshit that spouted out of Julie Uhrman's smug liar mouth. Dragon's Den would have ripped her pitch to pieces if she had answered questions like "How many have you sold?" with "Lots..." and "Who are you talking to?" with "Everyone" Kernel Monsoon fucked around with this message at 14:28 on Mar 28, 2013 |

The board is kind of suspended in the middle of the TIMECUBE. e: you cant see it in this photo, but it's not actually bolted down or anything. It's just wedged between the sides of the case.

For your benefit, and the benefit of others who actually paid for one of these in the thread: I would be very, very careful about giving my credit card info to the OUYA store. Maybe grab a $25 prepaid card to use instead.
