The Controller:
Compared to a PS3 controller, the controller Gamestick compete fully in my opinion. The flat, smooth form, he feels like a Nintendo DS. To connect the controller to the "Console", simply press 3 seconds power button. After that it has connected to the controller about 10 seconds.
The stick:
Very compact and stable. If during operation a little warm, but not more than a normal Android smartphone.
Here we go:
The Gamestick is quickly plugged into the TV and connected using the supplied cable to the power. When you first start to create a Gamestick account and away you go. The games are either free or cost about 0.99 to 5.00. Pleasant this is that the store is designed specifically for Gamestick - ie all the games run perfectly with the gamepad without much trial and error, as you would expect from larger consoles such as PlayStation. The selection of games at the moment is still manageable, but is growing because it is still a new system.
You can play music or video from almost any source about the XMBC App.
Conclusion:
The Gamestick pleasantly surprised me! I have long hesitated between Gamestick and Ouya and am very happy with my decision! The games run smoothly and are optimally adapted to the Gamestick.
