Doesn't even support PS1

You'd be better off buying an original Xbox and adding XBMC.

It support PS1 or not?

Some video i found on youtube about this console :











Some guys seems to have received their console as i can see.

I have it also, so far it's not that great.

Apart from the built in games, all you can do is playing GBA games via microSD (or playing retail GBA cartridge via the GBA Slot on it).

None of the files I tried (Neogeo, CPS-1 etc...) worked on microSD.

I hope the creators of this gamebox will soon release firmware updates or proper convertor for files or it will go fast on the closet...

That's sad since the device itself has a pretty impressive cpu + 128MB of ram (which is twice as much as the enhanced dingoo A330).

Like many chinese stuff: Good hardware, poor software.

Just ask them how to setup the microSD part.

Its a MAME machine. Designed for running old Arcade ROMs. If they tried to release something for running PS1 ISOs you can guarantee they'd have lawsuits up the ass from Sony (and they are lawsuit happy at the moment)

Hey, at least it supports SNES games.
Any word on what the performance it with special chip games?

There is no snes games built in, and you can't add them on microSD...

This is probably what I'll end up doing (since no one seem to want to send them an email), that company was pretty active at the time they were selling their ps3 dongle... but there is no update since 2010/12/08.

SFC means Super Famicom, no?

Seems that some Spanish guys wish to "open" this console a little more : http://www.zonadepruebas.com/modules/newbb...418&forum=8

Also there is more pictures of the inside Here

I found this product a while back. What games does it support?

Comes with 60 built in neogeo-cps1-pgm and 2 gameboy advance games.Emulation is almost perfect and fullscreen.Avi video files play awesome.Very easy to use,compact and has very low power consumption.

Can also play NES,Gameboy,Gameboy Color,Master System,Game Gear,Zx Spectrum roms ONLY through gb advance emulation(you need a gbadvance rom build tool)

Anyone to test what this guy claim ? :

I play successully additional games on from my microsd card :

1 - find and download BIOS files : pgm.zip and neogeo.zip. This is a must to play more games.

2 - find cps1 or cps2 or neogeo roms (zip files) and download them.

3 - copy bios and roms to microsd card (DONT extract zip)

4 - for neogeo, the first launch is very slow, please wait (gamebox unzip roms inside the microsd card and write .mvs file).
The next time you want to run your neogeo roms select .mvs file it loads faster !

CPS1 runs not very well, CPS2 is ok, and NEO GEO near perfect !

For PGM, I only test with Knight Of Valour (file kov.zip and pgm.zip on my microsd card). First launch is slow like neogeo roms, you must wait that the gamebox decompress files.

At this time, i cannot run snes, nes, genesis roms ! please test roms and send me infos

I test 2 or 3 CPS3 roms but it seems not to work. It loads (slowly) and reboot the gamebox.

[Another World]

anyone try the dingoo conversion tools to convert the neogeo and cps roms? most probably this thing is running a similiar set of emulators.

-another world

 

[deathking]

there has been some hacking for this with the memory dumped but it seems like its completely stopped - so far im regretting my purchases and feel like i should of purchased another a320

 

[indask8]

I just have taken my GameBox from my drawer to test this (at first I wanted to wait until saturday to try, but I was too curious).

-I put a fresh neogeo.zip + pgm on my microSD, I add some games freshly taken from my dingoo.

I turn on...

"NO SUCH FILE".

Maybe there is several firmware version of that gamebox, I got one of the very first.

Are you able to load gba games from your microSD ?

 

[indask8]

Yes .gba games works fine.

 

[Mbmax]

Which size is your microSD ? FAT16 or FAT32 ?
