The proposal has been quick to unleash the debate on the Internet about the possible success or not Gamepop or be a mere fad that will not end consolidated. Although initial demand Ouya has been strong are many who observe with suspicion these initiatives as they have very difficult to offer the possibilities of the current consoles ( PS3, Xbox 360 or Wii U ) despite its low price.

arrival of PlayStation 4 and the new Xbox could complicate its consolidation more if possible. As we have recently seen both Sony and Microsoft will try to add to his cause to independent developers and the most affected segment is precisely the device as Ouya or Gamepop. If to this we add its commitment F2P model expected to develop in the Next Gen and shift to the mobile sector , the attack could be very difficult to counter by these alternatives.

In any case, this does not detract or originality to the new model introduced by Gamepop. What is your opinion regarding the proposed BlueStacks? Do you have gap in the market or will be reduced to mere anecdote with the arrival of Ouya and Next Gen?
