Gone are the days when the Chinese were only known for sub-standard quality ripoff devices. Most Chinese OEMs are now making some truly beautiful devices with designs that often beat the ones from many international brands.
However, there still seems a section of makers in China interested in ripping off designs. With the open-source and popular nature of Android, software is the last thing makers are concerned about, which makes ripping off popular stuff even easier.
Gizchina News of the week
The new OUYE (rings a bell?) gaming console is one such ripoff. The Android powered, crowdfunded project comes with a main console that mirrors the PlayStation 4’s looks, with a controller that steals the design from the Xbox One. Oh and if you haven’t realized yet, the name OUYE is un-inspiringly inspired by OUYA, the Android powered, crowdfunded gaming console.
The makers of OUYE claim that they’ve spent “6 months on the unique design”. Yes, we buy that…
The ripoff console is powered by the Allwinner A80 octa-core processor, so if not a full-fledged gaming console, the OUYE does have the potential to make a decent Android powered TV box with a pretty controller.
Crowdfunded projects can be tricky, and quite a few of them don’t reach the goal which means they’re scrapped.

‘all’
Poor Wii U (not really).
‘many’ 😉
The Wii U is the most fun console of all the next gen bunch tho
Except for the Xbox One and PS4. Other than those two it is the best!
Hah i didnt say by specs and posibilities – the games and how fun they are
When i invite my friends at my house for house i cant convince them to come for ps4 or xbone but Only with Wii U or an old school Lan Party
Your friend must hate good games then….
FriendS – And we usually dont do local gameplay with xbone / ps4 mostly Online
Subjective at best.
SMESH
im not have problem with a ripoff , we have a problem with bad support, bad design and bad quality. Everyone ripoff from someone else or ripoff from nature !!.
Agreed, i mean ps4 does have a nice design, and the xbox one controller feels better, ripping them off is not a problem for me, as long as they can rip off as well their software support, which i think ain’t happening, but then again the OUYE’s concept is a well plotted troll, 6 months unique innovative design?
HAHAHAHA
who would buy … an ANDROID GAMING CONSOLE !?
Well actually a lot of people. They even crowd funded a project…
Go figure out what’s wrong with all those people.
no thanks … how about u just tell me instead?
I actually have a few, they’re pretty good.
like what?
This could only come from China! Products like these take me back to the early days of Chinese phones when virtually everything was a clone.
