    Hey everyone, I tried a few new things with the editing this time around. It meant the video took longer than expected to put together, but in the end, I think it was worth it. This might be my best edited video in a while. What do you think?

      I really enjoyed your video but I wanted to make a few comments. I own a game stick and it had officially supported custom roms and home brew. It was a really nice well supported for how poorly it sold. Most people that bought it used it to emulate games which it did a great job of emulating up to psx. The controller is pretty high quality as is the device itself. Honestly it’s just a product nobody wanted. It was well made, well designed and had several good games for it on release as well as its own version of Minecraft. They were very active in their community and it’s really clear they made a product they really cared about. It sucks they crashed and burned but I’ll give credit where credit is due.

    "Consoles" like these that play mobile games DO have a niche.....instead of making hardcore gamers their demographic they should have focused on "the kids who take their parents phones to play games because they're too young to have their own phone" demographic. Drop the price the and market it more towards kids and they would do at least better than they did.

      It could be sold as the successor of those plug and play consoles they used to make years ago which were just a controller connected to the TV and they had like 4 games on them, sometimes a PC or a Switch aren't accesible enough for what parents look for (Nintendo themselves tend to advertise for a 16-20s demographic nowadays), I guess it gets enough short term cash with the "casual games for non casuals" business model so they don't care about making something that makes more sense.

    The problem with all these "play mobile games on your TV" consoles is that they all ignore the fundamental truth - most mobile games aren't worth playing on a TV, those that are will inevitably be ported to various consoles' electronic markets, and you can already play mobile games on your TV with a USBx to HDMI cable, meaning your product will be competing, right out of the gate, with a piece of wire. The reason all these devices do so well on Kickstarter is that people want to use them as emulation boxes, but for legal reasons most of them make this way harder than it needs to be - not to mention that, if you're handy, a million different factories in China will sell you compact microcomputers that can run actual Windows or Linux. And that's not even getting into the Raspberry Pi, a device whose whole gimmick is "here is the cheapest actual computer you can buy, go nuts."

      Originally it was assumed by these companies and even NVIDIA that the major game developers would be willing to license the games to Android and these Android based systems. Sony and Xbox put a stop to that.

      @@stewbanker as my post said, it was heavily assumed the game developers would license mainstream platform games to Android, but none would. I've had a lot of cheap Chinese tablets with HDMI sockets on them that would have ran PS3 games ported for ARM/Android.
      Almost every major game developer uses Unity to create console and PC games, and when you start the build as well as complete and export it, you can set it up for every system including Android.
      So, the ability to put the games on Android was never an issue. I think the dirt-cheap hardware caused the console companies to strike deals with the game developers.

    In theory these consoles had the power behind them for some amazing gaming experiences, I mean the hardware was outdated but still, the outdated hardware was far more powerful than a PS2 at least in theory. However that available power could only shine with the development backing of AAA developers, and what Triple A developer in their right mind would develop games for systems with such little market share and with specs worse than even a Wii console. Obviously playing mobile games on a TV was never a good idea, but these consoles weren't really aiming for that, those mobile games were just to hold us over until "real" games were ported or developed for their platform, they were aiming to be the goto platforms for indie and AA studios.
    I feel like these kind of products just might have a chance to succeed, or at least a greater chance, if they were to become x86 based. If they could cram enough power into a mini console to run most 2D PC indie games, and mainstream games from the early mid 2000s and earlier, for around the same $80 price point. that'd probably be a lot more appealing to customers, especially if they made it really easy for the consumer and they streamlined a lot of the faff involved with running PC games, like instead of creating their own storefront they could instead make a steam frontend that only showed manually curated games known to function seamlessly on the platform, maybe the front-end could be something akin to Lutris and be community driven.
    All that said though, I'm slowly realizing all I'm really suggesting is a low end laptop without a screen or a keyboard, such a product in bound to fail without an exceedingly low price point and damn good software.

Its also proably one of the longest supported Android Devices I have ever seen. It came out in 2015 and still recieves updates, in 2021. It was so well made and thought out, that the Switch is basically a Sheild TV with a screen on it. NIntendo even futher support it in China by running Twilight Princess, New Super Mario Bros Wii and Super Mario Galaxy as well as some other titles on it.

    *The consoles stood to lose too much money and in concert with the major game developers, created the cross platform online services like Steam, Xbox live etc.*
    9 or 10 years ago just as now, you could buy a high spec off-brand Chinese Android for $100. Sony and Xbox would have taken a vicious beating. *So these systems didn't fail because nobody wanted them, they failed because all of the software developers refused to license games to Android.*

    I have both the Ouya and Gamestick >^.^> had a couple bucks burning in my pocket. lol I pick up the Ouya every so often, but not the Gamestick. It is too clunky (the controller) and the controller connectivity really made me put it down and just own a piece of history.

    Moral of the story is, don't over sell and don't be too ambitious. Lol.

    It seems that trying to make consoles is kind of a meaningless pursuit. Big companies lose money on their consoles and win due to exclusives. Why do people try to do it over and over again? That is an actual question I want to be answered. Maybe a video idea :)
    Edit: Also why do these consoles try to use Android? Smartphones exist, why would anyone interested in games buy a console based on a system that doesn't have a system seller. Quick name me an Android game that everybody knows?... I can wait... No hurry... Yeah, even though I am not a business expert I am pretty sure that it is a bad idea from the start.

      Nvidia shield has done pretty well for itself. You have to remember that back in 2012 the landscape for home media consoles was very different. A lot of companies won't have seen the shortfalls of using android as their operating system. I clearly see why they did choose the OS though. I've written two games for OUYA and it's a real treat to develop for. It's extremely easy to get your game on the TV for thousands of people to play.

    The only reason why I remember the gamestick is because vsauce featured it at one point.
