-watch him go... *thanks, i did BBcode wrong

Watch this emulator in action!~

I think its a pretty good idea, because an homebrew emulator on a flashcart will probably have data corruption from time to time.
+plus
-with 4gb.. you can probably put all the games ever made for older consoles. Excluding DS and [not all] GBA.
-no need to convert most movie files cause it supports RMVB, RM, AVI, WMV, FLV, MPEG, DAT, MP4, ASF.

=All in all, I think its pretty awesome. ;O!!

Looks interesting, but I'd have to see how it performs before even considering something like that.

posted before.

looks over priced

 

[DanTheManMS]

Oh, so there was supposed to be a video embedded in the post. Gotcha.

I have to say, I'm actually impressed that it can handle GBA emulation that well. Still probably wouldn't buy it as I'm somewhat short on cash, but it is very interesting nonetheless.

If it's upgradable and pulls a decent upgrade track records, hells yeah I would buy it, no decision, but if it's stuck at whatever firmware it ships with or support is lean, forget about it.

That is freaking awesome I'm going to have to consult my mum about this.

Looks too good to be true, is probably made of cheap materials and isn't going to be well supported. Of course, I hope I'm wrong and I hope it goes over well, has an open source firmware like AceKard so it can be upgraded by the people.

 

[GameSoul]

Are there any videos of it in action?

 

[DeMoN]

Yeah, it looks very shoddy but if it somehow is a quality product, I would definitely buy it. It has better video support than many MP3 players out there, and this isn't even that expensive (compared to iPod).

 

[Jdbye]

Mentioned this in IRC a few days ago. I didn't buy it, but it seems like it's worth the buy. I just don't have any spare money right now

 

[agentgamma]

Looks too shady for my likings.

- Rechargeable battery

The rechargeable battery worries me since poor quality rechargeable batteries have been known to explode.

This thing looks pretty sexy IMO. Someone said at the PH boards that the thing gets 10 hours just playing games, which is decent but unconfirmed. I wonder what the official specs are for this and how well the emulators work....

Check the original post, he added the url to the video since he couldn't get the Youtube tags working correctly.

Deal Extreme have these in stock link

$85 (£59.48) (€67.51)

As long as it plays games at 95 to 100% speed, I think it'll be a good emulator box. Plus the fact that it plays AVIs and MP3s is a bonus. The price isn't too bad, considering the current price of a DS, PSP, or iPod Touch.

 

[granville]

I've heard rumors that this is a PSP clone, except the emulators work better, like as perfect as VC games. I might get this someday if the reviews are kind (and If I ever get any money).

 

[GexX2]

Overpriced. Alot. I might maybe pay $40-50. But then again, I'm cheap. And I also own a PSP. >.>

 

[xalphax]

half the price and im in!
