    Laserchess - Caanoo

    I have updated LaserChess with some great additions (I think anyways). You can read all the changes in the readme but here are some big ones: Redone menu: The old one was not very good in that you had to use the touch screen only to go through the menu, then the joypad to actually play. Menus...

    Homebrew Info

    I would say running windows apps on caanoo is not likely. Wine is meant to run x86 windows apps and would be mostly incompatible with any caanoo arm port of wine. There are many tutorials and guides here on the forums to get a development environment set up on windows. SDL is great for caanoo...

    I Am Really Confused.... About Caanoo.. To Buy It Or Not

    Emulation on an open handheld is also not "with out hassle". I can only speak for Caanoo, but mame requires a specific version of the roms. And of course you will still need bios for certain games (eg NeoGeo). If all you are looking for is emulation I would say stick with your PC. But if you...

    Laserchess - Caanoo

    I've added a section on controls to my original post. It uses the analog stick for now, touchscreen support may be added later. :)

    Laserchess - Caanoo

    Hey everybody! I present LaserChess! It's a version of Khet with a space theme instead of Egyptian. If you are not familiar with the rules of Khet you should check out their website Link This Caanoo version supports two player with a human friend or single player against the Caanoo. This is...

    Great Games You've Found Since You Got Your Caanoo/wiz!

    I was listening to a retronauts podcast about capcom disney games for the NES and I just happen to have my Caanoo close by. I was able to follow along with the games they were discussing by playing them on the Caanoo. Some of them ended up being pretty fun, especially Duck Tales. Beyond that...

    Faster And Better Emulators?

    I find this as well. Many websites that sell Caanoo will list all the systems that can be emulated, but do not mention that emulation is not perfect for all games. So people have expectations that simply aren't true. What the community has been able to do for the Caanoo is pretty amazing...

    What Colour Does It Come In?

    Wow I like that picture of the black Caanoo, even if it is just a mockup or whatever. A pure black Caanoo would look so nice :D

    Is There Anything Coming Out To Replace/compete With The Caanoo?

    :lol: Many site these days have separate versions for handheld devices like phones, so I guess surfing on the Caannoo wouldn't be terrible, just not ideal. But then again, I already have a phone for that. My Caanoo is for games :D

    Is There Anything Coming Out To Replace/compete With The Caanoo?

    I think the Caanoo hardware is quite good already. The only improvements I would really want are to fix the screen, a more powerful processor for psx emulation, and perhaps some more durable components. I was very surprised at much I enjoy my Caanoo, and I think perfecting the device would be...

    Hardware Problems (I Think..)

    1) I'm not sure if it's normal, but my Caanoo is like that as well. Although it's only noticeable sometimes, like at the boot screen. 2) Not too sure about the connector dropping out on you but I know that transferring from the USB connector to the Caanoo is very slow. Try plugging the SD...

    Using Sdl_Mixer

    I'm trying to get sound working in my project using SDL_Mixer. I load the audio file using Mix_LoadMUS and it works fine on my computer but doesn't work on my Caanoo. I tried ogg, wav, and mp3 and none of them gave me any sound on my Caanoo. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Screen Protector

    I'm using the official Caanoo screen protector. It works great but it's slightly smaller than the bezel so there is about 1mm of open screen on the left and right sides. Maybe try some of those larger sheets that you can cut to fit perfectly.
