GCW Zero now available at retail

[VatoLoco]

The GCW Zero is currently available at ThinkGeek and Ithic in limited quantities, just in time for Black Friday. If you are interested in the handheld but missed out on the Kickstarter, now is the chance to pick up one of these open-source gaming consoles.

The GCW Zero utilizes a modern hardware design built around an Ingenic JZ4770 1GHz MIPS processor, a Vivante GC860 GPU, 512MB of DDR2 RAM, and 16GB of internal storage. The system incorporates true analog controls, mini HDMI, Analog TV-Out, WiFi, and more. The system measures approximately 143x70x18 millimeters and weights 8 ounces. The choice of a 3.5 inch LCD with 320x240 pixels and a 4:3 aspect ratio, coupled with the system specs, makes the GCW Zero ideal for emulation of many game systems, retro-styled indie titles, and classic computer game experiences.

I doubt it. You would need to redesign the whole thing, hardware and software wise.

I agree I wonder if someone could make a homebrew app that would allow for an ipod touch to connect to Gcw & emulate the ds' touchscreen for ds games
