The Ouya has a horrible touch pad; it's terrible. Great idea, but terrible implementation. And the new Nexus 7 has an absolutely horrendous touch screen (I think the company is something like Elan) so it better not be any of that crap. I'm still waiting and hoping for a controller with a good solid touch pad that works. Spend the extra money and pick one of those old school Japanese companies, they know how to do it. If the controller sucks, I don't care how good the other hardware is, it'll still be a bad experience.
