There is Superman inside Ouya!

For those interested in technical specifications, here they are:

  • Console
    • Tegra 3 SoC
    • 1GB RAM
    • 8 GB onboard flash
    • HDMI connection to the TV at 1080p HD
    • WiFi 802.11b/g/n
    • Bluetooth LE 4.0
  • Controller
    • Wireless controller with 2.4Ghz RF
    • Standard game controls (two analog sticks, d-pad, eight action buttons, a system button)
    • Touchpad, for porting mobile games more easily
  • OS and software
    • Android 4.0
    • Custom TV UI
    • Integrated custom game store - find and download games (and other apps) 
    • Ability to root device without voiding warranty
The heart of the console is the SoC (SystemOnChip) Tegra 3 (codename Kal-El) designed by Nvidia.
It includes 4 CPUs + 1 “companion” core (used in cases of low workload to lower dramatically the power consumption), GPU and so on in a single package. It’s a SoC aimed at mobile devices. The Cores are ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore and the frequency goes from 1.6GHz if all 4 cores are working, up to 1.7GHz if only the companion core is running. 


Here below two videos that shows what this GPU is capable of.
