Finally our Kickstarter Gamestick has arrived. GaminGuys thought the first thing you might like to see is a controller comparison with the mainstream Xbox 360 and PS3.
Needless to say its ultra slim compared to both and to think that the gamestick also has a carry slot built into the controller, it really does prove it's Next Gen Material.

The Nexus Player may not be the solution Google needs. AUTOMATON's Graham Arthur explains why he believes this is the case.
Never one to duck a challenge, the folks over at PlayJam were at last celebrating the launch of GameStick in the UK today – audaciously close to the launch of the latest offerings from behemoths Sony & Microsoft also shipped.
"Michael Pachter foretells if the failures of Ouya and Game Stick have signified the end for mini-consoles."
Pach-Attack!

Strangely enough Ouya hasn't failed. It has become quite a popular little niche console with the hipsters. There is even a limited edition bundle on the way.
GameStick failed because its buggy as hell and has seen little or no marketing. Aside from the bugs it's actually a cool piece of tech.
I have little too no interest in any android console... or IOs console for that matter.
There must always be an affordable system to allow homebrew developers thrive, they are the future of our business. Back in the Amiga/ST days, what was made was incredible for its time...
@ multiconsolegamer, are those disagrees because you play more than just a PS? That's a no no here...
I don't think they were ever alive or a wise idea. While there are a lot of nice mobile games (when you look at them in the context of being a small game on your phone and when not compared to the Ngauge), there aren't many casual gamers that want to spent $50 or $100 to get a cheap machine that can play them on the TV.
Those analog sticks are not asymmetrical!
That thing looks really uncomfortable.
It looks usable but I just dont need or want a android micro console.
Seemns pointless and not very good value for money, as I already have a JXD S7300, and will soon be upgrading to the S7800b both of which have HDMI out, and lots more features.
Very odd to compare a console controller to an android semi-portable one. Would have better to compare this odd controller with a Moga controller. But Moga's are very high quality. There really wouldn't be any competition here either.
