Looking for an Emulation Handheld.

buy a cheap laptop :) or a tablet

Hey,

I purchased the Dingoo about a year ago, the device is pretty good. It can play all NES, most SNES, and some GBA. The battery life is excellent in the Dingoo. The only thing I hate about it is the headphone port is in a very awkward spot, it gets in the way of my right hand when playing.

I have played a bunch of different Mario games Final fantasy games on the device.

I stopped using it when I bough a Samsung Galaxy S3.

I would recommend buying a cheap PSP and hacking the device and put an emulator on it though. Or what Smutsig said, buy a cheap netbook

Cheers,

Get a tablet or even some kind of a smart phone. I got a cheap Polaroid tablet and played around with it until I decided I wanted something different and took it back. The lack of tactile feedback screws with you less and less the more you play games on it. Start off playing RPGs for a while before you move into platformers. Playing Mario on a tablet without being used to using virtual buttons is a mildly infuriating and extremely frustrating experience.

As has already been said, a cheap PSP or even one of the Android handheld devices such as the JXD S7300 ($140), S5300 ($65) or one of the competitors, like the Gemei A330 ($68) and AMPE CT1100 ($79). They look and feel like the PSP, only running Android instead; which not only gives you access to the majority of the Android catalogue, but also all the Android-based emulators too.

Don't bother with the GCW Zero, it's way too underpowered, the RAM is slight and the GPU is weaker than the Mali200/400 and even the PVR SGX53x present in even the cheapest of the cheap Android handheld machines. Or you could get an iDevice, preferably an iPad2/Mini or iPhone4s/Pod5 since they'll be cheaper. JB and install emulators :)

get a cheap PSP!

Just use your phone?

Buy a cheap Android phone.

HI.
Look up the Archos Gamepad, might be a good device for you.

Best one is GCW Zero but it's not for sale yet. Second one is Dingoo A320. Dont bother with the others.

I'm using Dingoo for couple of years and i love it. It's great, epsecially if you use Dingux.

Basically what they said above ... I'm using a http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WinAQzeyunA

The build quality is pretty cheap and cheerful, I had to take it apart to do a button mod to make the ABXY buttons properly responsive, but apart from that I'm pretty happy with it. The sticks are duplicates of the dpad and ABXY buttons, just a heads up. The shoulder buttons are separate though. Runs GBA and SNES perfectly, runs most PSX titles. Haven't tried N64 yet.

Thanks a lot for all the help.
Gotta go to work, so I am offline.

but really thanks for all hints and opinions :)

Thank you community :)
THANK YOU!

Due to the popularity of these devices within the homebrew and emulation community, there are many third-party volunteer developers for these devices.
