The Ouya isn’t going to make its planned June 4 launch. The Android console will now launch on June 25. Ouya CEO Julie Uhrman said the decision was made in order to meet high demand at retail.
“We’ve had incredibly positive reactions from our retail partners, and so in order to meet their greater than expected demand, we decided to shift the launch date by a couple of weeks – three weeks – which will allow us to create more units and, basically, have more units on store shelves in June.”
Uhrman said the controller buttons can get stuck problem has already been fixed. The solution: larger button holes. The corrected controllers will ship alongside Ouya’s retail launch units.
The new controllers are being shipped to Kickstarter backers as well!
