Razer Forge Android TV Bundle pops up on Play Store for $150
It’s been quite a couple hours for those seeking goodies on the Google Play Store. First we saw BestBuy and Amazon leak the Nest Cam security camera hours before it appeared on the Play Store and shortly after we were treated to an updated Nest Protect. But Google wasn’t finished, posting the Razer Forge Gaming TV Bundle for sale on the Play Store.
Google is selling the bundle – which comes with the Razer Forge TV, controller, and related connections – for $149.99. You can buy additional controllers for $79.99.
We first saw the Razer Forge at CES and got hands on with the device, seeing it go up for sale a few months later. It’s currently available on Amazon for the same $150 price seen on the Play Store and you may note the alarmingly low star rating. Many reviewers claim it’s buggy and perhaps their quest for polish is what led Razer to purchase OUYA only a few days ago.
