The likes of Ouya and GameStick look set to face stiff competition in the Android micro-console market from Mad Catz’s Project M.O.J.O., GamesIndustry reports.

News of the new console emerged from the gaming accessory maker’s financial results.

Mad Catz called M.O.J.O. A “keystone product” in its GameSmart line of mobile gaming accessories which will also include controllers, mice, keyboards and headsets – all compatible with M.O.J.O.

“With our long history in the gaming industry, Mad Catz has the technical capability, product breadth, global distribution, and developer and publisher relationships that uniquely position our company to embark on this ambitious initiative,” company president and CEO Darren Richardson said in a statement. “We believe the GameSmart initiative fits perfectly with our long-term strategy of designing innovative products for passionate gamers and our strategy of expanding into emerging markets.”

Expect information relating to the console’s specification, release date and price later this week.
