Project Update #22: "Is OUYA shipping?" Answer: "YES! See this chart."
Backer_white For backers only, Posted by OUYA Like
Last week, I promised a weekly update to our early backers providing greater transparency into the progress of OUYA shipments to all of you who have supported us since the beginning.
I know you want these units now, better yet, yesterday (I want the same thing), but what I can offer today is better clarity into when you can expect your OUYA, so you can play the great games on the console you helped build!
As you might imagine, the path from production line, to shipping facility, to your front door isn’t always a straight line. We’re learning more and improving production daily -- we’ve already made some tweaks that you will benefit from -- we actually changed a partner this week so we could shave days off the total shipping timeline. We’ve expanded our OUYA team to have feet *literally* on the ground at both our production house and at our distribution facility, and we’re already seeing the benefits of this.
To be totally transparent, here is the current weekly plan of OUYA early backer shipments moving forward:
As you can see, each weekly shipment wave continues to grow, with nearly a quarter of all shipments out by the end of this month and larger-scale shipments going out weekly from there.
Thanks again for your patience, and I hope that these updates will get better weekly, and you’ll have your OUYA soon!
OUYA will keep evolving, and we’ll keep learning from your feedback.
