"GP32"

It's handheld, the size of a GBA. it takes Smart media cards. It has emulators for just about every pre 32 bit system going, as well as some for the GBA.

And I'm getting one.

So what should I do with my 128MB of space?
Go for a SNES collection?
Mix it up with some Megadrive classics?
Get a good set of NES roms?
Fill it up with obscure commodore games?

Advice, my friends, is needed. Although the Doom port is a cert.

70% compatable now!

Game is completable to the end, but with several glitches
- Both Mac and PC versions supported by this target
- Music is not continuous, and may pause, restart, and otherwise act oddly
- SMUSH audio (movie cutscenes) is a lot quieter than in-game voice, which is abnormally loud

Apparently it's only 60% compatible at the moment. Which is a shame as that is the only Animated Lucasarts game I own. Might give it a shot though.

I'll let you know if I have any luck.

Can you get Full Throttle?

That would be kool.

Er, yeh. Sorry!

SCUMM is a system which runs the Lucasarts classic animated games, like Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max, Monkey Island etc.

You get a DOTT demo with the system which is very fluid and the sound is top notch. It's one of the main selling points of the GP32 apparently.

SCUMM?

I got one. Muchos good, although I can't play DivX movies as the supplied player is toss and you need to pay for GPCinema - but the website is down so can't do that either!

It's great playing Super Mario Advance 4 for free, reliving DOOM and Wolfenstein and even playing Half Life (although it's not the half life you expect, just a DOOM conversion).

MP3 Quality is pretty good through headphones - the speakers on the unit could be better.

I have to admit I had quite a few connection problems when linking the GP32 to my PC. Thankfully I have a media writer so just popped the SMC in that.

Very recommended as long as you know you will need to get your hands dirty - it's not just plug and play (unless you buy a dedicated game from Lik-Sang or something).

Oh, and the SCUMM system works very well, although I don't have any games to put on it :(

I cream myself everytime i think of the GP32.

I think i might get one soon. FLU version too.

Could have, but you never came into the equation from my point of view. SUCKA. I probably would have if I'd known you wanted it, Matt already having a large one and all. That's not dirty. Only to the dirty minded.

FOOL.
