The $99 gamebox, OUYA, began shipping in late March to early Kickstarter investors.  As for the rest of the world, gamers would have to wait until June 4, 2013, when the gamebox officially launches in the market.

As previously reported, there are almost 500 games slated for Ouya, but gamers should not expect to see popular game titles as the company wants to be known as the friendliest gaming platform.  Ouya wants to be the go to hub for indie game developers.  There will be 104 titles available when Ouya officially launches in June.

Though the games may not be popular, the sheer number of available titles upon launch could entice gamers to actually purchase Ouya.  If not, the sleek design of the gamebox may just do the trick.

The Ouya gamebox is a small black and silver grey box that has a little bit of weight in it to prevent it from toppling over when the wires are connected.  It has a minimalistic design – a power button on the top panel, name of early investors written on one of the side panels, the ports are found in the back and the bottom has an exhaust to keep the gamebox cool while in use.  As for the controller, it looks like your typical game controller complete with the a power button, two analog joysticks that are clickable, directional pad and face buttons that has the company’s brand on it, as well two shoulder bumper buttons, analog trigger buttons at the back, and a touch pad located between the power button and LED indicator lights.
