The Future of Gaming is Android, Says Nvidia

[froggyboy604]

According to co-founder, president and CEO Jen-Hsun Huang, Android is the most disruptive operating system that the company has seen in several decades. "We have some for WinRT or Surface but our focus is that going forward the vast majority of Windows on ARM will be Surface and the vast majority of everything else in Tegra is Android," he said. "Android is not just about phones."

I think with Nvidia Shield, Ouya, and Madcatz Mojo, Android gaming is already pretty good, and there is no need to wait for the future to get into Android gaming since you can use an Android console like the Ouya, or handheld like the Shield to play games with a controller with buttons, Joysticks, and D-pad rather than uncomfortable touchscreen buttons which are only good for certain games like Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja, and Plants vs Zombies, or syncing random bluetooth and USB controllers, and hoping they will work on your phone or tablet, and games on a mobile.

Android consoles can also stream PC games from your desktop or laptop computer to your TV hooked up to your console to have a console like experience without moving your PC or laptop to your TV in another room.

I feel old whenever I read this stuff.  I can see what they mean though... I think.

Yes, obviously, they are releasing GTA San Andreas in a few days, LOL. Buy an OUYA if you want to experience it in big screens LOL.

I think the Madcatz Mojo with the Nvidia Tegra 4 would be best since it is faster than the Ouya, so GTA San Andreas, Riptide GP 2, and Real Racing 3 may look better on a Tegra 4, but the Tegra 3 on the Ouya is still pretty good for playing older games, indie games made for Ouya, and many less intensive games.

I read the Mojo also has a better controller which you can also use for phones, tablets, and PCs with Bluetooth 4.0 and lower.
