Mozilla Devs Are Working To Optimize Firefox For The OUYA Android Game Console

[froggyboy604]

As it turns out, it’s not just game devs that are getting some hands-on time here — some of the folks at Mozilla may be working on getting a version of its Firefox mobile browser up and running on the game-centric cube in short order.

We’re investigating what we need to do to make Firefox usable on Ouya. It already works and we have some preliminary patches for gamepad support, but there’s still quite a bit of work to be done to make it really usable. Part of this work will be making sure that WebGL and Canvas support performs well on the device, and making sure that the relevant APIs (such as Gamepad API) are also supported

Cool, I wonder if this also means that Ouya can also play web app games from Firefox mobile web app store for Android.

This could mean Ouya would have the first good web browser for Consoles since Firefox for Android is pretty good. I wonder would Google Chrome for Android would also work with Ouya as well.
