The company was more than happy to oblige at E3 (http://www.engadget.com/2013/06/14/e3-2013-roundup/), however, by streaming games from GRID to an OUYA (http://www.engadget.com/2013/06/12/hands-on-with-ouya/) system. AsAndroid Central caught on video, the tiny console is well-suited to the job: its Tegra 3 and gamepad can comfortably handle remote delivery of an intensive game likeBorderlands 2, at least in the controlled world of a trade show. While OUYA doesn't have much (official) access to NVIDIA's GRID at present, the booth demo was a possible vision of the future. It certainly gave OUYA an escape from its hassles on the street (http://www.engadget.com/2013/06/12/ouya-esa-e3-tussle/).
