What’s a trailer nowadays without dubstep?
GameStick’s new trailer may not be able to answer that question, but it does answer any questions about how the GameStick works (for anyone who hasn’t kept up with coverage on the device).
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.
if years from now this type of thing could handle file sizes as big as what we have on current consoles...man...this could be the future.
Looks like a decent controller, but the placement of the analog stick turns me off.
Interesting piece of mobile gaming tech. The graphics on that water based stunt racer game reminded me of Waverace on Gamecube.
I won't support it because I already have a S3 phone which can do all the games with ease. But a cheap solution for those who like this sort of thing.
Looks better than Ouya.
Love how simple this is, great for when you're away from home but near a TV and feel like playing something that won't kill your phone in 30mins or less
