Gemei A330

[Veho]

Is that WiFi thing limited to connecting to other A330s, or can it go online as well?

 

[kiafazool]

if u compare the dingoo a330 with the gemei a330
dingoo has more emulators? doesn't it?

It would be a bit stupid to limit it, it's an extra selling point and it'll allow for chat clients and stuff.

well, yes, at the moment. because it's only just been released. give it some time.

This seems like something I'd like to buy but would it be worth it if I already have a DSi/PSP that has a flashcart(DS TWO)/fully hackable

According to booboo the a330 he was given to help with porting dingux has an arm 5 400mhz cpu not arm 11 600mhz. Either way, it looks nice and I ordered mine a week ago from dealextreme... Also Ive heard that theres no snes emulator preinstalled, hopefully that will be released at some point soon...

I know, but it just says "WIFI 2-player gaming". Maybe it's actually Bluetooth. If it were an unrestricted WiFi card they'd be talking about "internet" or "online" or "802.11" or something. I mean, it's a major selling point, you'd think they'd point it out.

"has..their"? Dolt.

I found it a bit odd but if it's Bluetooth(or whatever) why would they say WIFi?

Also I forgot to say before @AW: Thanks for clearing up all the dingoo stuff the whole issue of which company was "real" stopped me from buying a dingoo before but I might pick up one of these Gemei's when there's more info on it.

Because Engrish? Maybe they don't know the difference between "wireless" and "WiFi"? I don't know.
In the video, they keep the two consoles pointing at each other the whole time, that might even be an IR connection.

Spoiler: 2-player wireless

EDIT: the description on Dingo Digital USA only says "wireless multi-player action between two A330 consoles". No mention of WiFi.

I don't follow lol
Wasn't the Dingoo A330 fake?

And whats this Gemini company?

there is information which will better answer your question in my Dingoo reviews. The dingoo digital team split, a few people stayed behind. the people that stayed have serious mental issues. the web site admin spent the better part of 9 months bashing the new company, known as dingoo technologies. he claimed that he was the rightful owner of the dingoo products and that the a330 was fake because he did not make it. he also said for 9 months that the a320 from dingoo technologies would blow up if you charged it.

the facts...
dingoo digital split and dingoo technologies was formed.
dingoo digital keeps selling the a320 with the old logo
dingoo technologies sells the a320 with a new logo and new native homebrew
dingoo technologies buys a new mobo from chinachip and releases the dingoo a330

the mobo is freely available to anyone who wants to purchase it, dingoo does not own the rights to the mobo. gemini has released a few other handhelds and devices in china, most of which were pretty nice. if you read the a330 review you will quickly see all of the problems the device had. it seems gemini was paying attention and they have fixed the issues and updated the board to use a ARM CPU which clocks in at almost 100MHz faster than the dingoo technologies a330.

hope that helps,

Wow thanks for the info! So is Dingoo Technologies the correct company? If both of the companies sell A320 which one is the 'proper' model/better supported model.

Also will Shoptemp Sell the Gemini?

So it's wireless, not wifi? Was gonna' get it mainly for the WiFi gaming and convince my buddies to get them too but nevermind.

 

[Dangy]

Still not worth getting if you have a PSP...

after the poor sales associated with the dingoo a330, they may be reluctant to stock it. what we should do is have everyone open a ticket requesting it, if they are serious about purchasing it!

I guess you kinda answered my question from earlier but this still looks like a nifty piece of hardware. How big are these things though.

 

[kiafazool]

not worth getting this anymore since i heard about the new killer dingoo thats gonna come out for the same price with more and better options (4mp camera/800x480 4" screen)

 

[betterman]

No ,it is not WIFI, but allowing two men to play games together. My suggestion is that if you have enough money, then you can buy PSP/ NDS. Clone game console from Dingoo or other company are MP4/MP5. They are not a totally game consoles.

As a father, I will earn morn money to buy a real PSP for my son in this Xmas.

 

[sonknuck23]

That makes you the betterman (lol see wat i did thar)

anyways, what's this about a better dingoo console coming out? Tell me now, before I buy the Gemei a330, 'cause I'm getting it next Friday.

The Dingoo USA is the successor to the 320 and 330. It is more powerful (CPU-wise) than the 3DS, using two ARM11 processors underclocked to 500mHz (the 3DS is dual-core ARM 11 266mHz) and has 128MB RAM. It's possible for PSX emulation, and maybe N64. Release date unknown, more data revealed on the 15th. ME WANT.
