OUYA customers receiving an alpha build of the newly released console.

On Jun 25th, OUYA, the grassroots console system made possible by the incredibly successful Kickstarter fund raising campaign, launched into the gaming world. The reception to the new console has been lukewarm at best, with gamers complaining about the lack of substantial titles, the awkward controller and the underwhelming hardware performance. Regardless, the OUYA has sold out on Amazon, proving that the new console is at least a moderate success.

Unfortunately, the launch of the OUYA has not been without it's fair share of criticism and issues. According to many Facebook posters on the official OUYA Facebook page, the promised early version of the OUYA system that was sent to the donors of the Kickstarter page has shipped with an alpha version of the systems software.

Looking through the OUYA support page of Twitter, this remains unconfirmed, however some of the Twitter responses have managed to provide some humorous responses.
