I got one of these this week. I was thinking it could possibly replace my ATV2 and also play some games on it.

Pros:

XBMC is fast
Sideload Apps
Netflix
PS3 Controller Support
Plex

Cons:

Still somewhat buggy and it lost connection to the controllers and had to reboot it.
Netflix was buffering over and over last night
Plex on the Ouya needs improved many videos it would just say it can't find the server.

I'm just not sure if I will keep it or not. XBMC is probably the best thing it can do without problems. Even then I have to run a XBMC 13 nightlies because the Ouya version disabled multi-channel audio due to licensing issues. The netflix problem might be the deal breaker for me. The quality wasn't that great with netflix and I switched over to the ATV2 and didn't have any buffering problems at all.
