White OUYA Android console coming this Christmas

November 19, 2013November 19, 2013 Daniel Morial Leave a comment

The Android-powered gaming console, OUYA, may not be receiving much response in the market but that doesn’t stop it from having a new coating just in time for the coming Christmas season.

The Limited Edition OUYA comes in an all-white casing including the controller. The refresh is more of a cosmetic upgrade because under the hood, not much has changed except for the 16GB internal storage, an upgrade from the 8GB of the previous version. It also has expandable storage via USB.

The older console will also have a software update to bring in the features of the newest OUYA like USB storage and more. The old yet still capable Tegra 3 and a gigabyte of RAM powers the OUYA with WiFi (802.11 a/b/g/n), Ethernet port, and Bluetooth. Video output is done via the HDMI-out with 1080p support.

It will have limited availability in North America with a price tag of $129 vs the $99 (8GB version) compact Android gaming console.

Wii Mini will be available in the U.S. for $99.99

November 8, 2013November 8, 2013 Daniel Morial Leave a comment

The new and toned-down version of the popular Nintendo Wii gaming console will soon be available in the United States with a very low price tag.

The Wii Mini, which is already available in Canada and Europe for months now, is making its way to the US for only $99.99 (around Php4321). The affordable bundle already includes a Wii Remote Plus controller, a Nunchuck and a copy of Mario Kart Wii to get you started. The gaming console is 1.9 x 6.3 x 7.5 inches and weighs just 0.7 kg.

Being a “mini” version of the original Wii, it is smaller, cheaper and has some few losses like WiFi and GameCube support. This means online features are nowhere to be found. The good news is that it still supports accessories and the 1,300 game titles for Wii.

The real successor to the Wii, the Wii U, is generally not doing well so Nintendo is hoping that the Wii Mini will get the hype. Also, new game titles like Super Mario 3D World and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze will be launching this year. Mario Kart 8 and Super Smash Bros. will arrive in 2014.

The Nintendo Wii Mini will be available for purchase in the US starting November 17th.

UPDATE: Nintendo Wii Mini retails for Php6,150 at Data Blitz
