   Time to rescue this Ouya controller from its own alkaline hubris. The good news is that it doesn't appear to have gotten into the internals, so stripping it down and cleaning the plastic parts ought to leave it good as new.

   Only one battery appears to have popped, so for peace of mind I might pop the other into a more secure container. The box I'll tackle later.
