>47126 Ouya

>7755 Ouya + Controller

I thought that sounded odd. All have a controller, the second is 'limited edition brown'.

As for costs.. i am guessing they will probably make an order for 100k? (They have the cash, plenty of time for more pre-orders, and surely expect to sell some after launch, and they are tiny so easy to store). At those quantities my guess for a cost breakdown; SOC; $15, nand $3, wireless radios $6, case $5, power $4, controller $10, battery $2. So i think $50 is realistic, they will need FCC certification etc. Keep in mind they are (planning) making them for almost 9 months out, tegra 4 will no doubt be out, nand prices will be lower, tiny case, low power, cheap looking controller (sorry).



Limited edition brown... Microsoft already tried that with a consumer electronics device. And that's all anyone remembers of that line of hardware. I gotta wonder, why brown?
