“If You Come, We Will Build It” – Crowdsourcing Hardware Ideas
Ouya is a new kind of game console for the television. It is open and allows any creator to develop games. Ouya’s Tim DaRosa will be at the Hardware Innovation Workshop (May14-15) talking about how they got started. Central to their development process was getting feedback and suggestions from backers, partners, and the media about their console. Tweaks and improvements such as adding an Ethernet port, renaming of the buttons, and changing the cross-style control pad were all products of this process.
