OUYA Console Starts Shipping To Kickstarter Backers

The team behind the Android-based OUYA games console have announced last week that they have begun shipping their first consoles. As the console originated as a Kickstarter project the first consoles will be shipped to backers; the console is due to be released for general sale for the 4th of June with a $99 price tag. As the BBC notes, this is the first of a series of major new entrants into the games console market, with others on the horizon including fellow Kickstarter Android projectGamestick, Nvidia's CES surprise Project Shield, and of course Valve's 'Steambox.'"
