GameStick Finishes Kickstarter Campaign at 648% of Funding Goal

GameStick, a tiny gaming console that plugs into a television set, will hit the market in April after a month-long campaign on the crowdsourcing site Kickstarter. The owners of the casual games platform PlayJam have raised $647,658 for the console -- more than six times their $100,000 goal -- through the support of 5,691 backers, who each pledged funds in exchange for first dibs on the product.
