    OUYA will get optimized XBMC support... So even without putting a single game on this thing, it will easily have the full functionality of a dedicated home media center for videos / photos / music. Basically a fully open source AppleTV for $99. Sick.

    "Maybe it was inevitable. Maybe it was because of the hundreds, if not thousands, of demands on Twitter, in blogs, on Facebook, in Reddit, and in Kickstarter comments. Maybe it's because many of Team OUYA support XBMC, and nearly a third of Team XBMC members are OUYA backers.

    Regardless, we are delighted to announce that XBMC will be working with OUYA to ensure that XBMC works well on the OUYA platform. OUYA's Android underpinnings and XBMC's work on Android (soon to be merged into master, pending final sign-offs!) will dramatically speed up that effort, as will early XBMC dev access to OUYA prototypes.

    The conversation between our two teams is young, but talk is ongoing and positive. We look forward to providing more exciting news on this front as it develops."
