For 99 dollars (plus 20 USD shipping outside the US) one can get a console that will be able to play all Android apps. A video game console, to play on the TV.

Too good to be true? An elaborate scam, or the next big thing?

Oops, then close this thread.
For what its worth, i had no idea it was a kickstarter project.
We're handing the reins over to the developer with only one condition: at least some gameplay has to be free. We borrowed the free-to-play model from games like League of Legends, Team Fortress 2, Triple Town, and many others. Developers can offer a free demo with a full-game upgrade, in-game items or powers, or ask you to subscribe.
More or less what I was suspecting, but it certainly does look like an interesting different piece of tech.

Holy hell! I just realized the project already way overshot its funding goal at almost $3 million. Look like some people are excited about this.
Well, they reach 3,5K. I hope it will be useful. I don't like play games on consoles. PC always better.

I suppose it is mostly developers since the SDK access costs more.

Only early SDK access costs more. Every console comes with the SDK at no extra cost, allowing every owner the ability to create games and apps.

BTW - it just broke $4 million
