dingoo digital A-320 Emulator - The ASSEMblergames.com message board

karsten · 01-26-2009

our chinese friends came out with another handheld device, that this time looks really good and promising, allowing great emulation of

nes-snes-gba-genesis-and even cps1 and 2

and also being able to play video, music and much more

video of it running is here:
http://it.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCE2Vv4Srvw
and here for multimedia

price is said to be around 75$

does anyone here have one? i'm really interested in this one, but i'd like to hear from our fellow experts here before buying... and also if many are interested (and the item is good enough) we might get special price... (this is just an idea, obviously).

Don't have one of these but it does indeed look promising. Reminds me of the bottom portion of the DS lite a little

Thats pretty snazzy. One of the few devices I've seen that can play GBA games as well. I pretty sure I played with one at CES in the international section (or something similar). IIRC I think the plastic buttons felt a little cheap, and its not much bigger then a gba micro. Also take my words with a grain of salt, there is a good chance that it was something completely different and I'm off my rocker.

In anycase, I would pick one up if I could, be fun to play with and fulfills my gadgetwhore quota.

Im also interested, I currenly rock the JXD301 and its quite outdated now.

karsten · 01-26-2009

anyone that have infos about this please share :)

Trenton_net · 01-26-2009

This kind of stuff is all over China. It's just the run of the mill emulator/media player thing. Probably wouldn't pay that much for one all things considering. I think they have a few for sale on Taobao.

Actually, they have GSM phones now that fold open to a keyboard/game pad like the DS. Those are more usefull since you play when you have spare time.

already saw these, but i want feedback from someone that tried it first person/bought one...

retro · 01-27-2009

Buy one and report back to us

hehe

All I can find out about it is that it has a 500 MHz CPU. I'm assuming x86-alike to make the software side easier, but I'm probably wrong... anyone got more info?

MatthewCallis · 01-27-2009

Where can you buy one of these? I'll take the plunge into cheap gadgets and report back.

Ze_ro · 01-27-2009

It's nice to see they finally made one of these with a proper button layout. Looks pretty decent actually...

Trenton_net · 01-27-2009

I noted that the keys are really stiff to control. They make a really sound click every time you press it.

jonwil · 01-27-2009

If its a 500 MHz CPU in a portable device, its likely to be ARM(most cellphones and PDAs and stuff use various ARM variants for example, as do the GBA and DS)

Right, like I can totally read what I saw on that page about purchasing, shipping and payment.

Trenton_net · 01-27-2009

I don't think you can order from Taobao even if you wanted too. I think you need a Chinese address, bank account, etc. Not sure if she (wife) has a Taobao account (I don't), but if the price is much cheaper in China she might get one as a gift when she goes back.

karsten · 01-27-2009

taobao?

retro · 01-28-2009

OMG! Does anyone read my posts??!?! Check my links, karsten

It's called a translator. Google have one. Use it.

As for the problem with not having accounts etc., you'd have to do the usual. Have a contact in Hong Kong (friend or a commercial service) that would be prepared to buy it for you. That will, of course, cost extra.
