    Running Simple New Pc Games On Caanoo

    Some of them could be ported, but it's pretty unlikely.

    Caanoo Or Psp?

    The aforementioned cost of Memory Sticks was why I never went for a PSP. It seriously drove up the cost.

    That Mellow Yellow Ad

    I would argue that if ED is capable of removing the ad he should, for security reasons.

    Spam In The Caanoo Section

    Christian Dior is a designer. Guess is a brand name, they do jeans mainly (but there's a great scene from one of the Brady Bunch episodes that touches on the name confusion actually). No idea why you'd spam Guess, it's a cheap brand... maybe it's big in Asia like Levis for some reason?

    Raspberry Pi

    If they can get hardware acceleration going in Iceweasel, and release it around the time of FF6 or 7 when the memory leak bug is fixed, so that it has a low RAM footprint for browsing and can handle HTML5 well, that could be really good. A $25 computer that is perfectly capable for web browsing...

    Prospective Console Recruitment

    Well that got me looking for a GP32 on Ebay, and it seems everyone's hanging on to theirs. What about using CR123A/CR126A batteries? They're high capacity rechargable batteries that you can get from a lot of places, so 3-4 years from now if the devices is no longer supported it ends up still...

    Playstation Vita Will Finish The Pandora?

    Except Craig is making the iControlPad which is for a closed device, and that was despite all the pre-orders for the Pandora.

    Playstation Vita Will Finish The Pandora?

    SFIV Volt is pretty awesome, no reason to think KOF wouldn't be, but I can't confirm since I've only got a 2nd Gen.

    Playstation Vita Will Finish The Pandora?

    The Pandora finished itself. It was obsolete by the time it (sort of kinda) shipped. Even if it were the only handheld game console in existence, it still wouldn't succeed.

    Why The Hell Did Nokia Want To Use Windows Phone 7?

    The N9 managed to one up the iPhone 3G at launch, but developer support is much less. Adding something like swipe in to another OS isn't that hard, for the N9 to build a similar app library is an entirely different matter.

    Prospective Console Recruitment

    First thoughts: Go as off the shelf as possible (which seems to be what you're doing) so that you don't run into the delay problems the Pandora had. That's probably the biggest killer for it - having to wait until the average Android smartphone now has more power. Second thoughts: Try to get it...

    Sony Psp2

    Actually, a lot of the earlier ones are rendered at quite a bit less than 720p and upscaled. Even GTAIV was upscaled to 720p. I'm curious how the chip they use compares to the RSX, which aside from hardware lighting capabilities was rather underwhelming performance wise. I doubt though that...

    Sony Psp2

    Nintendo was last in the market before the Wii was released, Sony was the market leader, not Nintendo. The PS2 only sold 10 million in 2 years, so it's not impressive either? They're releasing it for $250, which for a Nintendo system is almost as bad.

    Sony Psp2

    That makes no sense really. The 360 was released first and Microsoft was not the market leader but it did give them a huge edge. The reason the Dreamcast failed is because Sega gave up on it. In the first two years the PS2 was on the market it sold 10 million units, the exact same as the...

    Sony Psp2

    Yeah... at this rate the PSP2 will launch before the Pandora. I wouldn't be surprised to see it only go out to people who already pre-ordered, and then just move towards producing the iControlPad with various grips for different smartphones. Hell, GPH will probably launch a new handheld before...

    So What's The True Successor To The Gameboy/ds?

    Yeah. If you turn 3D off it can hit 8 hours, but if you're turning 3D off, what's the point of a 3DS? Definitely if they're selling it at $250 they should put in the best battery possible, as battery life is more important than price.

    Sony Psp2

    I'd expect it to take at least a year. With FW 6.0 the PSP got a lot tighter, and the PS3 took 4 years to break. PSP2 won't be cracked all that quickly.

    Sony Psp2

    I think there's a chance that it might happen. Component wise it doesn't seem like it would cost much more than the $180 the iPhone 4 costs, possibly hitting around $250, so they could sell the hardware and make a profit at $300 even, and $400 most definitely. There will also be multiple SKUs...

    So What's The True Successor To The Gameboy/ds?

    Possibly because it's cheap? That's why Nintendo does everything.

    I think that depends on if you get headaches from 3D.
