Watch out Ouya, a new Android-based games console has made its debut on Kickstarter, and it's called the GameStick. Developed by PlayJam, the GameStick is a thumb drive-sized device that plugs directly into your TV via HDMI and promises an open-source games platform that challenges the traditional console publishing model. Unlike the Ouya, which is intended to be a compact set-top box, the GameStick emphasizes portability. The entire system is housed within the small HDMI adapter, including a 1.5GHz dual-core Amlogic 8726-MX processor, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of flash storage, as well as integrated Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chips. While the GameStick hardware pales in comparison to Ouya's Nvidia Tegra 3 processor, PlayJam says that the system is capable of running graphically-intensive Android games at HD resolution.
