MadCatz’ M.O.J.O. is a go

The impressive little micro-console is now available at retailers; just in time for Christmas.

“The M.O.J.O. Micro-Console for Android is designed to appeal to tech savvy gamers due to its high-performance hardware, open software platform and our ecosystem of GameSmart accessories,” said Darren Richardson, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Mad Catz Interactive, Inc. “M.O.J.O. is a perfect example of what’s achievable on the Android platform, capable of delivering a superlative Smart TV experience and fulfilling the promise of core gaming on the mobile platform.”

I had some hands on time with the M.O.J.O. a while back and I was honestly blown away by the diminutive game system’s quality and feature set. Shipping with the NVIDIA Tegra 4 T40S 1.8GHz Processor and with 2GB RAM, MOJO actually has some very cool hardware packed under the hood. Then add to that the C.T.R.L.R Mobile Gamepad, which is basically a fully-featured console controller and you have a extremely compelling gaming device.

The perfect solution for internet browsing, the C.T.R.L.R is capable of replicating mouse movement on the big screen, comes with a full complement of media hot keys and is compatible with Bluetooth enabled Android smart phones and Window PC®’s, delivering the core gaming experience to multiple devices.

Of course, the MOJO does a lot more than play games too since it has access to Google Play, Amazon and basically anywhere else you can buy Android apps. No, there’s no walled-garden here or proprietary storefront that you’re forced to shop in. You can literally get your games and apps from wherever you like to shop for them and even access your accounts to use compatible apps that you already own. Cool stuff. We thought it was so cool in fact, that we recommended it in our Holiday Gift Guide for this year.

You can check out the MOJO right here and order one up for yourself, uh I mean- for that special gamer on your list. Which is probably you.
