Here is a complete working Pandora console

Here is a quick and much requested video of the white Pandora which was built a few days ago. It is the first fully working, portable, near final unit.

Heck yes! I can't wait for the Pandora's launch!

Foxgod6262d ago

Awesome, i myself pre ordered a Gpx2 Wizz, which should launch in April as well, just like the Pandora.

I hope the homebrew game scene will become bigger then ever with the coming launch of the Pandora and the Gpx2 Wizz.
Both handhelds are pretty powerful (about 2 x the power of a psp), and both run linux, so software should be portable between the two handhelds.

I cant wait :D :D :D.

Only two times the power of the PSP and at the same time running linux? Well that right there isn't enough to compete with graphics on the PSP, IMO.

Foxgod6262d ago (Edited 6262d ago )

Hardware wise, the Wiz got a 500 mhz processor and 64 mb of ram which is about 2 x what the psp brings to the table.

Linux doesnt make a computer more powerful, it just uses less recourses.

Mind you that the wiz is just as strong as a pentium3 desktop computer.
The Pandora is about 10 % stronger then the Wiz.

And it doesnt compete with the psp on graphics, this is a homebrew handheld, however, the Wiz and the Pandora should easily be capable of running older pc games like Quake 2 and unreal, and possibly even emulating N64 roms.

I dont see the psp doing that.

Its raw power was pretty fast, without acceleration it was running Quake3 if im not mistaken.

Also you can overclock the system to 900Mhz( and beyond?..dunno).

PSP can run N64, im sure of it, the problem is that its hard to build an emulator engine that makes good use of a system since you need to take 2 different CPU's into count. And stuff like that.

Also Pandora runs Quake 2 with ease...like i said it runs Quake 3 XD.

Microsoft Xbox 3606262d ago (Edited 6262d ago )

So which one do you guys think is better? I am a fan of open-source apps and games too and I'm maybe thinking about getting one instead of waiting for the new PSP, which may be unhackable. I'd get the GP2x but I really dislike the overall design. I do love the OLED screen and design though. Right now, I'm leaning towards the Pandora because of its clamshell design but it does look clumsy and pretty big.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing17d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9217d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit17d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing17d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9217d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
