The Tricky Math Of A $99 Game Console [Update]

By Dr. Eleanor Vance | Published on January 01, 0001

Ouya sprung onto people’s radar recently with an incredibly desirable, or at the least incredibly interesting pitch. The would-be console makers offer a cheap alternative for gamers to play, and even hack and mod their way through the hardware and games potentially offered on the platform. https://kotaku.com/the-piracy-problem-why-ouyas-biggest-strength-may-be-i-5925510 U31 com But Ouya can’t possibly be relying on hardware sales for their business model. Speaking with me on Wednesday about Borderlands 2, Randy Pitchford dove into current industry matters. We got on the subject of Ouya (Oh yeah? Ouija?), and he knows that the Ouya makers will have to make money somehow. This sugar-coated pitch can’t be everything.cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"5925780","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"uncategorized","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"uncategorized","TAGS":"","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); Ouya can’t continue to exist off of simply Kickstarter profit, that much is obvious. And they can’t rely on selling units in the future at h25 com สล็อต $99 a pop. Why not? Pitchford explains: “They asked for a million, so they must have planned this out. They were selling them to the people that were buying them through U31 com the Kickstarter for $99. Take a million divided by $99. That’s 10k units. Let’s imagine their margin on the hardware is $10, which I think is actually exaggerating, considering what’s actually in this thing. $10 h25 com สล็อต times 10k units, that’s $100k. You can afford four guys for two months. That’s not a business. Maybe this is just the thing to get what their business is off the ground, and they’ll say whatever they need to say to get Kickstarter to work in their favor.” Pitchford guesses that Ouya will take the tried and true method m358 เครดิตฟรี 188 other consoles companies have for monetization, namely taking some sort of cut off of software sales. It seems likely that this m358 เครดิตฟรี 188 could at least be a considered business plan for the Ouya folks in moving forward. [Update: Ouya does take a cut of the revenue made on games sold through their app store, as noted in their FAQ on their Kickstarter page.] Playing off the hype and excitement of the new console, Ouya could be luring us into their field before delving deeper than this tip of the iceberg. Kickstarter is just the first step in a longer business plan set for the future. But is Pitchford excited about this platform, future undisclosed monetization plans or not? Absolutely. “If there’s a machine that’s capable, that people love using, and there’s a lot of people consuming games on it, I’m going to be really excited to create content for it. What it actually is doesn’t really matter to me. But it [the Kickstarter draw] is a really clever, interesting play.”
