I know that this runs Android... so existing market games will run on it. But just like the Ouya, games are going to need some special development to work with this game pad so they have a worthwhile experience.
Typically, when a gaming system launches... they trot out all the big developers who have committed to building a AAA title for launch day. If they manage to get several big must-have games - awesome! If not, it could be a tough sell.
Don't get me wrong - I love this and the Ouya... I think android-based game consoles are great and I hope they're the future...
