OUYA, an Android-powered videogame console funded on crowd-funding site Kickstarter, will begin selling through Amazon, Gamestop and several other retailers.
Preorders for both consoles and controllers will start being accepted on Tuesday, in advance of retail availability in June 2013. Additional retailers include Target and Best Buy, who will sell the console for about $100.
OUYA will also sell its controllers – which include a pad that has touch input similar to the iPhone, but without a screen — for about $50. The console plugs into televisions and runs a number of games based on Google’s mobile operating system, Android. It’s open to any developer, and they are able to build games and also modify the hardware with new accessories or gadgets.
