Final Fantasy III coming to Ouya

[Koby]

There's a lot of talk nowadays about Ouya, a new console that uses Google's Android system. Its aim? Providing cheap, creative games on hardware that's just as easily customized and hacked as open-source Android smartphones. Over-ambitious or not, the idea's earned quite a bit of backing both financially and critically. And it recently garnered some support from Square Enix, who pledged to have the Android version of Final Fantasy III available at Ouya's launch.

This isn't any great risk for Square Enix, of course. Final Fantasy III is already out for Android phones, and bringing it to the Ouya should be quite easy. Yet it's an important step for the system, which is designed to subvert the high production costs and mainstream tastes that dominate today's consoles. Having Square Enix on board at least shows that the Ouya won't be a mere catalog of cheap Angry Birds clones and Poop Rearing Simulator Mobile.

I am very happy that Square has decided to jump on board with this. It's a big catch for the ouya team.

All I can say is Ouya
