These are some seriously nice systems, with OLED touchscreen displays and all.

And it even plays Cave Story!

if only the buttons wouldnt look as if they'd fall off from just looking at them...

Well that's pretty tempting, but the face buttons of the Wiz were always a major turn off for me. I think I will hold out for the new Dingoo and see how that fares.

Thanks for the heads up, I've been eying these suckers, waiting for a price drop of sorts.

Awesome

The buttons on the Wiz are indeed horrible. Especially the right side. It makes pressing more than 1 button at a time a tremendous effort.

OLED screen is really tempting.. is there any way to mod those buttons ??

EDIT: well i just found it from google. search for 'GP2X wiz button mod' now it's really tempting

To be honest, it's true, the face buttons weren't great.
The d-pad was overly sensitive, trying to play games like Mario proved to be difficult because you'd always accidentally crouch down.

Other than that it's a very nice system, but I'd choose the Caanoo any day with it's larger screen and much better buttons.
