I thought this was interesting, so I'll share this with you guys.

 

Due to the rise in mobile and social gaming, console games have seen a lack of support. Due to this, one person set up a group of people to make a console that would revolutionize the gaming industry.

 

Enter the Ouya. It only costs 99 dollars, making it very economical. The actual size of the console is around that of a Rubik's Cube, making it smaller than the controller, even. Each console can be opened easily with a standard screwdriver, turning any console into a development kit, without the need for licensing fees. It's even hacker friendly, allowing anyone to customize their Ouya, and hacking or opening an Ouya does not void your warranty.

 

Every game on the Ouya is free at least to try, with upgrades to the full version, or microtransitions throughout the game. Many popular games, like Minecraft could find themselves on the Ouya. The console is expected to ship in March 2013.

 

Did that interest you? if it didn't, I don't know what will.

Definitely seems intriguing to me; and I'm one who usually sticks to the main 3(Or rather, Sony and Nintendo if anything, with the occasional original XBox game. =P)...

 

Won't change my mind about eventually getting the Wii U, but I'm definitely intrigued about this... I'd only get it after getting a new TV, though; I don't have any HDMI ports on the family's current TVs.
