Subject: Gamestick - ANOTHER console kickstarter

This world wants to drag you down... And the weight, that guilt they want to hang around your neck, you don’t have to carry it one more step. You think they won’t let you rest, but it’s not up to them. It never was.

Gamestick is another kickstarter games console, based on Android (not unlike the Ouya), and it's already met it's fundraising goal.

How do feel about this? Some are calling this the "next Ouya", but the Ouya isn't even out yet.

Edit: Here are the specs they've released:

Processor - Amlogic 8726-MX
- Memory - 1GB DDR3 / 8GB FLASH
- Content Download Manager w/ cloud storage for games.
- WiFi - 802.11 b/g/n
- Bluetooth - LE 4.0
- O/S - Android Jelly Bean
- Controller - Bluetooth, 3 mode controller: gamepad, mouse and keyboard with support for up to 4 controllers.
- Full 1080p HD video decoding

I keep on getting in conversations with a person who calls me John.

Ugh, long read. Someone give me the gist of it.

It's not a bad idea really, same with the ouya, more so if they're open ended. People can make some interesting things using these types of hardware aside from just playing the games.

It's a console not much bigger than a USB stick. I've posted the specs above.

Portable android based game console. In other words, it will probably suck.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

Will never ship.

-blam!- third party consoles like this and Ouya have always come out. The only difference is people kind of fund them now. They still will all suck and still will never make a difference.

What the hell would they do? Spend a ton of money to install a better graphics card or better specs? Modding the things are so pointless.

Revolutionary concept for gaming, without the technology it needs.

When a USB can do everything steam and a decent gaming PC can that will be the day...
