Nexus 7 as OUYA [Portable Game Console] topic

Hello everyone, I have a question about feasibility, and the likes. This is what I want to do: Run OUYA natively on my Nexus 7 [2013]. I heard there are dual-boot options available for my Nexus 7, and I could just as easily add external storage with meenova, slap on a cheap case, stick on a GameKlip to it, and wala.

I figure if I sell my OUYA, I'd be able to buy everything with that money that I need to get my set-up going. One problem, I can't find an OUYA rom anywhere. All I can find are hacks and tweaks to get the OUYA launcher going. I don't want that. I want to run the OUYA flavor of android, natively, and solely, giving it full-use of my 2GB ram available.

Is this possible? Does a native OUYA rom exist for any device, are there any plans to make one/keep it up? I loved the idea of OUYA initially, but I hate it now. It's just staying there, and I never use it. Seeing Ben Heck's portable OUYA inspired me to look for an alternative option. He said something like, "sure we could've taken a tablet and slapped a controller onto it, but we wanted to make things more difficult and hack it." Then I thought to myself, how about we don't make things more difficult, and lemme try to find a way to port this controller-centric experience to my tablet. The only thing I love about OUYA at this point is the fact that over 700+ andriod games exist that not only work, but work better with a controller.

"back" on console mode? topic

I have connected SHIELD to TV and either BT mouse or a MOGA controller, but I couldn't figure out a way to go "back" or "home". There's no onscreen buttons, anyone have any ideas how to use "home" or "back"?

Mobile Console apk (Samsung) to Nexus 4 and others for Samsung Game Pad topic

Hi,

I own a Samsung Game Pad (EI-GP20) and I'm wondering if I could get the Samsung Mobile Console app to work on a Nexus 4 or another device running android <4.2?
I wasn't able to give the apk file a try since I couldn't find it. It seems to be available only from Samsung App Store...

Anyone could help me getting the file? Maybe someone already tried something?
