Ouya's E3 presence will be open to the public, as it plans to show off games for its console in a parking lot down the street from the Los Angeles Convention Center where E3 will be held in June. The information comes from an email to registered Ouya developers from head of developer relations, Kellee Santiago.

Santiago says Ouya will provide developers with "everything you'll need to put on a killer game demo," such as an Ouya console, controllers and TV, during the convention's entire three-day stretch from June 11 to June 13. Registered developers, of which there are over 10,000, have until May 28 to submit a form declaring their intent to show off their game at the Ouya lot, with hourly time slots available for each of the three days.

Ouya has raised $15 million in funding from new investors, the company's CEO has announced.
Julie Uhrman said that new funding was important for keeping the tiny Android in console in business for the long haul, and also meant it could increase production to meet demand.

New investors for Ouya include Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Mayfield Fund, Nvidia, Shasta Ventures and Occam Partners.
Launched on Kickstarter in July last year, Ouya quickly broke records to become the highest crowdfunded project on the site’s history, raising $8.5 million in just 30 days.
At the time, when Develop asked Uhrman whether there were other avenues of investment open to Ouya, she revealed that the company was in fact looking for additional funds, and would have taken the console to Kickstarter regardless of how successful raising private investment would have been.

Tiny Android console slips past June 4th release date

Android console Ouya has had its launch delayed by three weeks.
The company behind the crowdfunded platform said the setback was due to demand beyond its expectations from consumers and retailers, forcing it to move the launch date to June 25th.

Ouya stressed however that it the change in date would not affect Kickstarter backer shipment, which should reach all those who donated to the console by the end of May.
The console had originally been slated to hit UK retail on June 4th, as well as also being available in the US and Canada, selling at £99.99 ($99.99).
Ouya can be pre-ordered from its official website for $99.99. For that price, users get the console, one wireless Bluetooth controller, a power adopter (region specific), two AA batteries and a HDMI cable. Additional controllers can be purchased for $49.99.

Now that OUYA consoles are shipping out to the masses, the folks at iFixit were able to grab a box and immediately undo all of the precious packaging work accomplished at the factory. In its usual style, the site gently dissected the world's best-known Android game console, commenting on "a very clean and simple layout." Overall, the splaying seemed to happen with little to no fuss, with the fan being the only modular (and moving) component in the entire thing. All told, the OUYA notched a 9 out of 10 on the all-important Repairability Meter, aided by the fact that only standard-head screws were used, and that no abstract glues or other black magic was used while piecing it all together. You'll definitely want to give the source link a look if you're yearning for more eye candy.

Quantum Conundrum developer Airtight Games has announced its latest project, Soul Fjord, an Ouya-exclusive game that mixes 70's soul music with Norse mythology, because why not?As detailed on Ouya's official site by Developers Best Friend and thatgamecompany co-founder Kellee Santiago, Soul Fjord is a randomly-generated dungeon crawler with rhythm-based combat. It follows the exploits of a funky afro-sporting warrior named Magnus Jones who upon being slain discovers that he wasn't invited to Ragnrok, the party to end all parties, literally. It's an actual end-of-the-world-party, and not one of those cheap knock-offs college kids throw in dorms. In order to gain clearance to club Valhalla, Magnus will have to prove that he's one bad mother (shut your mouth).
