To the OP: I think this will be pretty well sorted once we get more than two forums about the Pandora. I'm actually looking for a bit of breathing room... :wacko: :( <_< :)

I'm with you. I will definitely enjoy the UMPC-like abilities of the Pandora, but I doubt I'll even get to use them much because I'll be playing MGS or Crash Team Racing, or etc. ;) I voted games first.

Good post, but not necessary for a new thread... Unless something like this were to be stickied >_>

Just for data's sake, I kind of want to ask this question. This is not an invitation for flames or anything, I just would like to know. Plus this poll has been suggested to me ;) Just would like to point out that we all want do do something awesome with the Pandora, and the brilliance of this...

Even after hearing you explain, it still seems way too excessive. Perhaps when people realize the potential of the gaming aspect of the system we'll 'forget' about the DS and the PSP... :P I don't even plan on getting a BT mouse or a keyboard for the Pandora. Why lug all that stuff? You might...

Thanks for that blurb, to be quite honest :) Hope things are going well/smoothly.

That sounds like it would get floppy and stupid really fast, especially for those of us who won't use that feature...

Not exactly, since I don't plan on taking my house with me everywhere I go. So a Pandora's pocketable... A laptop isn't. Therefore, I probably won't be taking a laptop AND a Pandora in the same bag. When I don't want to carry a laptop with me, I'll take a Pandora and leave the laptop at home. If...

Yeah, its pretty early to be worried about that, isn't it? The only real reason it came up, though is that everything we've been hearing for a god while has to do with UMPC functions. Disappointing for the wishful Pandora gamer. ;) Good to see any interest, though, and everyone certainly is...

Sure, but the hacked Mario rom will almost definitely work on the Pandora. And NDS emulation hasn't been totally ruled out on the Pandora. PSP's lineup is disposable to me, pretty much, plus I'd already bought and sold one, so there's not much for me there. Even if I had these handhelds I'd...

Sega CD games: Snatcher - A good adventure game, one of the few games that I actually played through to completion. Definitely recommended. Robo Aleste - A very difficult shooter, one of the best. Lunar: The Silver Star - A good turn-based RPG. Popful Mail - A nice action/RPG. Sonic CD -...

If I needed as much entertainment so as to bring two handhelds (let alone three and two computers) I probably am on a fishing boat in the North Atlantic for two months or have an incredibly short attention span. I don't ever see me taking more than one type of video entertainment with me...

I realized that, too... About the GP2X ports being trivial. It still worries, though... Haven't seen/heard of an update from zodttd in a while, and nothing from Franxis about MAME (that I'm aware), let alone a lot of the other genius devs in the GP2X scene. I don't want the scene up there to die...

Keeping it, on the off chance that this device becomes... Not what I'm looking for. After a decent amount of stuff has been ported, I'll probably pick up the GP2X and play all the emulators, kind of weigh the familiarity of them Vs. the new ones on the Pandora, then I'll put it back in its box...

Exactly why I emulate and retro-game. I just can't bring myself to buy something new when I haven't seen/played every must-own for all the old stuff.

We also need to remember that it's not just Craig &c. that are handling everything. It's up to them to get the GUI, BIOS, hardware, shipping, etc. done. It's a community effort, it's all about who's attracted to the scene. Anyone can develop... whatever they want for the Pandora. Open Source...

Yeah, but... Really? Two handhelds? A Pandora rubbing up against an NDS Lite in yr pocket? Nothing new really interests me, that's why this kind of thing is an anomaly. I had a PSP once, then sold it in favor of the GP2X, because I just wanted to play Genesis, NES, Neo Geo, MAME, etc. with...

I agree with you to a point. I am foaming, literally wiping foam off my chin right now, for a Pandora. But nothing we say here is going to make preorders happen sooner. So I think we should all just accept that fact and post in the gadget bag forum and be happy. ;) Maybe make another N64 inquiry...

Not to jut off topic, but all you guys that are carrying around DSs or PSPs... You do realize that the Pandora will be able to play games, right? So far six different posters said that they would either carry an NDS or PSP...
