The Wikipad Android Gaming Tablet Will Offer Users All Current and Upcoming Content on OUYA
SANTA MONICA, CA. – July 28, 2014 –Wikipad, a leader in mobile gaming tablets and maker of the GameVice gamepad controller, and OUYA announced today their global partnership to bring OUYA game content to current and future Wikipad devices. The partnership between OUYA and Wikipad will offer gamers with a comprehensive portable console gaming experience through the Wikipad Android tablet and attachable gamepad controller. OUYA’s library of nearly 900 games, including recently-released titles Toto Temple Deluxe and So Many Me, will be available through Wikipad.
“With OUYA Everywhere, we’re giving gamers more options on where they can experience OUYA while extending our distribution beyond a single device for our developers,” said Julie Uhrman, CEO and founder of OUYA. “We want to be where gamers play, and partnerships like this make that possible.”
“We have been fans of OUYA since their tremendous Kickstarter success and watched with anticipation for a time to arise when we could offer our users the OUYA experience and thanks to OUYA Everywhere that time is now,” said Fraser Townley, President, Wikipad, Inc. “Adding OUYA to our Wikipad gaming tablet increases the already unprecedented amount of titles and content that players can access, which is more than any other gaming platform currently available.”
Owners of the Wikipad, the only tablet to possess both the unique combination of a console quality gaming experience with the functionality and portability of a tablet thanks to its award-winning and patented detachable gamepad controller, will soon be able to access OUYA’s award-winning library of hit independent titles and established mega blockbusters such as Broken Age, Towerfall, BombSquad, Amazing Frog, Final Fantasy III, and more.
With a growing community of 37,000+ developers, OUYA possesses a cultivated growing library of unique titles thanks in part to their ongoing community and developer support system. The company’s latest initiatives include OUYA Everywhere, which brings the company’s roster of 870+ games to additional platforms, and AIDE, a feature launching next month that teaches new developers how to code, market, and launch their own games on OUYA.
