Ouya doesn't lock you into a contract, so the prices aren't really comparable. HDMI connections on phones are a lot slower than dedicted screens due to buffer copying - MHL 3.0 is supposed to fix that. Do the cheap USB pens have comparable graphics, USB expandability, and look as good as the Ouya? :)

Average Joe/Jane don't care about it as they already have the phone anyway.

Quite a few to choose from, both cheaper and more expensive than the Ouya:

Maybe their GPUs aren't at Ouya's level, but they are good enough for most Play Store titles.
