This is awesome news. The popular video game system which started from a Kickstarter 2 years ago now accepts Bitcoin as a payment option. This really shoots things into the mainstream:

This is a welcomed development. This has been my dream that gradually, there should be massive adoption of Bitcoin globally. As it is now more institutions, organizations and lots more of government in the world are beginning to look into the blockchain concept. This would really pave way for economic development and growth of the citizens of the various nations of giving the proper approach.

Ouya has sold over 100k consoles in only 6 months. The games are actually getting quite a bit better as developers now have had 6 months to work on things. This is somewhat big news I would say. Another major US merchant accepting bitcoin.

OUYA has some pretty bad ratings though, not even sure people will buy this. It's a great concept, but was just executed wrongly. However, perhaps accepting bitcoins may boost their sales by just a tiny bit.

Seems like every time I log onto a tech blog ouya is being bashed for something they did.

how come I've never heard of this gaming system? It can't be that big of news if I haven't heard about it Cheesy

Haha, but yea, any new company that accepts bitcoins is pretty big news for the currency.

I don't think there are any good news to compensate for the mixed signals we are receiving from china today.

I'm currently mining litecoin with my OUYA right now. 130 h/s, and the thing is HOT.

*I suggest you do not do this, I don't know how long my OUYA will last.*

I think this is the main reason of making Bitcoin pay possible in OUYA Wink
