Pushing the gadget envelope even further than past releases.

OUYA Limited Edition Update
Yesterday we told you about the Limited Edition OUYA console that had been announced, today we received some more details.

Previously it was unknown how many controllers OUYA supported but they officially announced that OUYA will support up to 4 controllers.
Also announced is that the controller included with the Limited Edition will have a matching rich brown brushed metal finish. Even better is that any controllers you order with the limited edition will match the finish of the limited edition (so you can order 3 extra controllers and all of them will include the limited edition finish)
Finally they have officially “sold out” of the pledge tier that allows you to get your name etched into the console only 2500 lucky people will have special consoles with their name etched in it.
There is only a few hours left before you’ll miss your chance to order a Limited Edition OUYA, so if you want one and haven’t pledged yet: head over to the kickstarter page.

Limited Edition OUYA Console Announced
If you haven’t heard about OUYA, it’s a new console that was recently announced by way of a Kickstarter. Rather than another big-name-brand console OUYA is designed to be low priced for consumers and developers alike. It’s based on the Android operating system and is basically a $100 (USD) console that lets you play smart phone and tablet games and apps on your HDTV.
There are lots of other great reasons you should be interested in this console so I encourage you to check out the video above.
If you’re wondering why a console that takes no physical media is being mentioned on a website for people who collect physical media video games, that’s because a Limited Edition OUYA was announced just recently and you’ll only have a few days to snag one. For an Extra $40 (USD) instead of a silver OUYA you’ll get one in a “rich BROWN BRUSHED METAL FINISH”. Its unclear if the included controllers come in that finish as well or if there are other special traits that makes this edition unique.

It’s worth noting that there are higher “donation” tiers available that offer other special features such as getting your name etched into the console and controller. For those of you outside the US, they do ship internationally too.
