The Ouya is an Android powered game console / set-top box that you can pick up for $99. Not only is it a cheap game console, but it is also an affordable Android platform designed to drive big screen TVs. Easily turn a TV into a wall mounted dashboard or living picture frame.
Once the ADB driver is installed, You can develop for and deploy to it with Delphi XE5 just like any other Android device.
