I'd expect that "WVGA" is the resolution for one eye, not the physical resolution. Otherwise, the horizontal dpi you see would be half the vertical dpi which would probably be rather ugly. This might be something to consider for the next Pandora. It won't work with the present version, though.

Software ports: -Smokin' Guns. Free Open Source multiplayer shooter, Quake 3 based. Could be distributed (including content!) with every Pandora and really show off the graphical capabilities. http://www.smokin-guns.net/ -OpenTTD. Free Open Source implementation of Transport Tycoon. A brilliant...

Actually, the PSP Go failure has no real implications for the PSP2. It failed precisely because it was not a new generation but instead a crippled PSP, introduced while the regular PSP was still on the market at a similar or even lower pricepoint. A download-only PSP2 could still work very well...

It's somewhere on the back IIRC. They finally included a telescoping stylus, though, so that shouldn't be much of an issue. B)

Nope, it wasn't. The plan at the beginning was to actually establish a competitor to the GBA, with it's own library of games. Obviously, that didn't work out too well but that only became clear long after the design was finalized and put out into the market. The GP2X is probably the first...

Whoa, that's beautiful! :wub: Especially love the hand drawn diagram on page 21... :) I'm going to study this a bit... B)

I don't think you understand how the technology actually works. The issues you listed don't make any sense to me.

My opinion: Get a Palm Pre (Plus). webOS is a much more comfortable operating system for everyday usage. The multitasking and gestures are amazing. It also does impressive 3D gaming now, with many more ports of iPhone games in the near future. It's a pretty open Linux system. You get root access...

I can't wait for Portal 2! It's going to be beautiful! :wub: If you need more Portal now, try this mod: http://www.portalprelude.com/ It's a pretty good prequel to the original game and about the same length and difficulty as well. I really liked the storyline.

No matter what they do, it'll be impossible to out show the 3DS. What are you going to do? Dual analog? Meh. Higher res screen and more graphics power? Nobody cares. While the 3DS isn't perfect, it's so far ahead of the game that the only option Sony has is to more or less clone it. Even then...

+1 What the fuck is the point of this thread?

Groundbreaking? More like annoying and gimmicky... What could be fun this way is an augmented reality game like this: http://toyspring.com/arcade/ There are probably a few more creative ideas to be had with this. However, in an epic action adventure game, you simply don't want to control the...

Ahh, Tapland... :wub: The Pandora really is the first device to match the Zodiac so it's very logical that folks over at Tapland should be interested in it. I was (am?) one of those folks myself. :D

Nope, that won't work for playing FPS at all. You can make games with this control scheme but definitely not a proper FPS. @Evil Star: While the touchscreen is not quite as comfortable for FPS camera control as an analog stick, it is actually a lot more precise. Have you ever played an FPS on...

For taking 3D pictures, of course! I'll be taking a lot of pictures with that aslong as I don't have any other 3D camera. B)

What everyone seems to be forgetting is that the Wii is already beyond Wii-like graphics because it's had it's 1-2 years already. :D Seriously, all this talk is pretty useless. We need to see the specs and the games later in the dev circle beforewe can really judge the graphical capabilities...

The 3DS only having one nub isn't that much of a problem, really. Unlike the PSP, it has the bottom touchscreen as a second analog input, which works well in first person shooters, for example. Think about it, Wii + Nunchuck also only has one analog stick.

Also, Nintencats! :D

3DSL with bigger top screen in 1 year... :P Still, they did almost everything right yet again. I'm certainly getting this at launch.

You know that the PSP already had one of those, as well, right? OT: 3D fotos! Movies! Kid Icarus! Nintendo is crazy awesome... B) No specs but the Kid Icarus in game stuff suggests about PSP level I guess.
