I don't know if the servers are just getting hammered from the mandatory update or if it's my shitty wifi or what, but downloading is slow as crap so I haven't been able to fiddle too much. The only two games I tried are the demo from Sonic 4 Ep 1, and GTA Vice City which I sideloaded. Sonic looks pretty good but the framerate isn't as good as the PS3 version, so not worth it if you have a 360 or PS3 unless you just want it cheap. Vice City needs a PS3 controller since the Ouya doesn't have a Start button, but it plays great on here. After fooling around with it a few minutes I'd say it beats the original PS2 version by a mile, but the PC version is naturally better.
And that's all I can play, I'm waiting for Raiden Legacy to download, which is taking forever and is only 60 megs or something. I think I'll just select a bunch of games for download and leave it on, so tomorrow afternoon I can actually play.

The Ouya versions of the Sonic games are basically crap since they cost more than the other versions and are just Android ports of games that cost ONE DOLLAR a month ago.
-
I was mainly interested in ep2 since it's cheaper on Ouya than PSN but if it has the same framerate that's a dealbreaker.
Messed around with Mame. It doesn't have all the graphic options I would like so I can't make it look as good as Xbox mame, but some of the games I tried that the Xbox struggled with run like a champ on the Ouya. Donpachi in particular is MUCH better on Ouya.

An Ouya charged my iPhone overnight, I am in its debt.

Played with the Neo emulator with my Neo Geo X stick, and this thing officially kills the Neo Geo X for TV use. Like Mame, I can't set the graphic options quite the way I like so the image isn't perfect, but it does look better than the X even with the assistance of the Framemesiter. Also, Unibios is built into the emu.
Like Jeremy said earlier, the Saturn USB pad works on it, and not just in emulators but in actual Ouya games that do not require the analog stick like the Sonic games. You do need to keep the Ouya pad on hand for menus. My ModBox was the same way really, so I'm used to it.

Query: I'm a bit of a luddite, as you know, and don't have any sort of HDMI TV or monitor. I want to buy one, but will it even display on my old shitty dumpstered sdtv? There's been one at the bar's game night for a couple months, and we love it.
-
There are HDMI-to S-Video converters you can get to use on this, and I've seen a video on Youtube that I couldn't find off-hand showing that it works well, and doesn't totally butcher the crispness of text and stuff.
-
I haven't tried it, but I would imagine it would work fine. The main issue with those is tiny text is unreadable on a CRT but most of the Ouya's text is gigantic. I've got a converter but I don't have a SDTV hooked up at the moment.

That UI is stellar.
Oh the game is gold
