2006-06-20 GP2X, an open and portable game console

Via MichaelOlson ¹, a GP2X site ², and a review ³: It has all the arcade emulators, and TV output. Ohhhh... I hate playing emulators on my desktop or laptop because I want a good pad and don’t have one.

I think I’d like getting one of these. And Michael is porting NetHack to the GP2X. I wonder whether I shall ever see the bottom of the gnomish mines again. Only reached it once and died soon after. Damn.

Now that Gamepark Holdings has improved the hardware of the GP2X, I can fully recommend it (before there were some annoyances with the joypad and headphone jack). Let me know if/when you get one and I’ll send you a starter kit with emus and stuff :^) .
