You know now that I think about it, with Mr. Mirko's tester many ppl can go to 200Mhz. Isnt that the speed of the Zodiac processor? If so then all the GP32 is missing is the ram but it also doesnt have the extra overhead of an OS running behind all the games.(CPU Cycles, space in RAM).
And the extra gfx chip and the double screen resolution and touch screen and bluetooth and infrared etc etc.

for homebrew purposes i'm pretty sure the graphics chip is going to go unused.

the extra resolution actually does very little to help it in areas such as emus, means that you get even more wasted space, check ljz screenshots!

we've got rf!

touch screen pfft :blink:
 
If you look at gameboy advance stuff, they use all the hardware to get the best stuff they can. The chip is there to be used if it needs the extra power in the project that they are coding.

The extra rez means that consoles that run at a higher rez can be shown fine without any loss in the picture. Doesn't make much different for the ones that use lower rez tho yes.

Bluetooth can talk to the pc and loads of other things, Rf can't and is much slower :(.
 
C,mon Guys,
We all like machines that can emulate and are designed for playing videogames.
I know its easy for me to say because i have both consoles but i couldn,t choose between them.
As someone who just loves to play old retro games and a few modern as well , i couldn,t choose between the GP32 or The Zodiac so i just take both wherever i go.
I,m sure that most zodiac owners wouldn,t slag off the GP32 with the large community and support it has either , PLUS the GP32 is a damn fine machine.
If you love emulationa and everything that goes with it you just wouldn,t do it.
I should think that anyone who slags off either the Zodiac or GP32 probably sits at home wishing they owned one whilst still playing on thier black n white gameboy.

Who is Very happy with his new BLU and still playing Final Fantasy on his Zodiac.
The original Mystical Ninja... :ph34r:
 
Actually, the extra res means there's more calculation in terms of stretching to be done, it takes longer to draw the screen, etc. Its actually, to some tangible degree, a disadvantage. Then again, taking that point of view, so is ours over the GBA - and we much prefer the higher res...
 
the zodiac is the big bully in the school, he looks like he's got it all, the ends up fat, alone working in mcdonalds/insurance office and unloved.

the gp32 is the nerd that gets a hard time form the bully, but then when leaves school and goes from stride to stride.





(i have no idea what i'm on about)
 
I didn't edit it, I promise ;)

Anyways, here is the original if anyone wants to see it:

The Zodiac is far FAR better than the GP32! We are not talking horoscopes either! I mean, I can at least look at a Zodiac without burning my retinas from the terrible graphics, and my ears won't cave in and die from the entrance music of a GP32.

But no more flaming or this is locked and LOLed. But it will prolly be LOLed in a while anyways no matter what anyone says :D
 
AAAARHG these threads are annoying.

Mods how about a Lock and ban? Lock all of these lame posts and ban that troll forever. Just a suggestion ;)
