raspberry pi B+

Sat Jan 03, 2015 6:17 pm

i know absolutely nothing about electronics. but i want to start learning. i have been looking on the internet for solutions with no success. i have an ouya game system that i want to use for traveling since it is so small and easy to transport. i made a travel case for it. i want to get at least a 7" to 9" lcd screen that i plan on using in case. my question is can i connect the ouya to the hdmi port on the B+ and be able to play? please help me.

thank you

I haven't a clue what an "ouya" is.

The HDMI port on an RPi is an output. It connects to a display which has an HDMI input.

As a gaming system, Ouya is quite good. As a mini computer the Pi is adequate aslong as you are realistic.

However, the 2 cant be used together. Trust me I've tried...
