The Ouya is a compact package smaller than its gamepad (pictures)
The Ouya is a small, cube-shaped video game console. It's so small, in fact, that its included controller practically dwarfs it.

The Ouya has one of the smallest console footprints I've ever seen. The Android-based device connects to your TV and runs games specifically tailored to its included controller.
The Ouya's face buttons are fine, but they don't have the tactile springiness of the Xbox 360's. They have also been known to get stuck from time to time.
I really, really dislike the trigger buttons. Sure they're in the spot where you'd usually find trigger buttons on a controller, but they hardly feel like actual triggers.
