[game_edu] Alternate console "game stores"

[Gregory Walek]

I've had students sign up with Sony and publish to the Vita.
And the Xbox 360 still has the indie market place (free 1-year membership through Code Spark\MSDAA)

Looking at Mobile (aka "the other consoles") :

Windows App & Phone App Developer registration is free
Being an Android Developer is a one-time small fee.
Apple has  an iOS University program (https://developer.apple.com/programs/ios/university/)

Not that I know of. The modern consoles are actually fairly open for indies and students these days. Why jailbreak when they can actually publish? :)

Hey folks,

are any of you, ro your colleagues, jailbreaking consoles to teach your students how game distribution “stores” work or to have them be able to distribute what they do in class?  Gimme a shout offline at sj at mail.rit.edu<mailto:sj at mail.rit.edu> if you have any insight into this practice.

Thanks.
