Ouya Dev Kits Ship In December, Launch Date Imminent

November 30, 2012

The Wii U has been sitting alone in the next generation for a few weeks now, but the Ouya will soon join in on the fun.

Ouya development kits are shipping out to developers across the planet on December 28th, just in-time to meet its originally planned December date.

At a reasonable $99, the Ouya's futuristic cube shape will house a quad-core ARM processor, 1GB of memory, and a GeForce GPU. In addition, a sleek controller will be included. The hardware is aimed at playing Android-based titles, but already has an exclusive line-up of 19 games.
