iPlayer launching worldwide July 1st

[BoxShot]

Not getting this ... $45 is a bit steep and my battery will drain like hell (I have a ds phat with what maybe 2 hrs of battery life on a full charge) Yes Moonshell 2 FTW and .dpg vids are pretty small.

 

[shakirmoledina]

it has too many flaws at the momemt so they really have to look into that... eg)battery life, price and usefulness
i really think it is not worth making a cart just for this reason though it does make it more safer for nintendo

 

[elixirdream]

who knows DX might be selling them cheap

 

[OzModChips]

$30 USD is below cost
so dont think it will be that low on DX

I won't be buying it. It's nice in theory, but it's not practical... I'd rather use a laptop for films.

If they improved battery life, added commercial rom support and reduced the cost I'd buy it.

 

[Splych]

Gah... DPG = Free. And it doesn't even load roms.

$45, it is like the second most expensive flashcart under the CycloDS Evolution xDD.

Would rather get... DSTT/TTDS + SD Card + Moonshell = Win. x)

some of the sites are ripping consumers
you guys should click CHINESE (upper right) on hopebuy and see how much they are selling it (RMB 198)
i even found a chinese site who is selling it at RMB 180 (26 USD)

 

[mrfatso]

woah, US 45? where did u find that scamming site? when there's a chinese site selling at around half the price

need proof?

have a look at these 2 sites:

[disgaea fan]

awesome but $45 is just too much

 

[mrfatso]

well, ya if u go to scammer site, click on the spoiler and read elixir's post

 

[elixirdream]

the funny part is some of these sites are from china itself
if they can sell 28 USD in china why must they sell 45 USD to other countries?

i can always understand other shops from other countries are selling at a higher price
but .... well nevermibd

 

[liuruicloud]

well, it is not the first time that flashcarts have a lower price in china than other countries, so not strange it happened again on iplayer. any way, chinese people really get a poor salary....

 

[Slowking]

It's simple wages and the cost of living are much less in china, so they can sell much cheaper. It has nothing to do with ripping people off, it's just that those western stores also have to make a living somehow.

But I have to agree $45 for just a media player is just too much. Maybe it can appeal to people who don't know about flashcards though.

 

[elixirdream]

well..
the same site which is selling it
is having 2 price

thats what i am trying to say

 

[tal32123]

this is a brilliant idea except i wouldn't pay $45 for a card that doesn't load roms, would have huge movie files, and is made by a team of newcomers (no offense)
