Got my Wiz today from gp2xstore -- ordered it early Thursday afternoon, and here it is! They shipped it out a few hours after I ordered it, and I chose Priority Mail (total cost was $189). I'm really digging it so far. The screen is gorgeous (found myself quite a few times turning it in every...

To give you guys an idea of DealExtreme's shipping time, I ordered mine around 3am Monday the 13th, and it arrived yesterday, so about 10 days total. I live in Ohio, and I paid for EMS Express (still quite a deal -- Dingoo plus shipping for less than $100). The status of my order was "Waiting...

You guys make me laugh so hard, getting all self-righteous about the evil sins of illegally downloading music. Next you're going to tell me that you ONLY use your GP2X (or upcoming Pandora) for homebrew games. Yes, downloading stuff illegally is not something that you want to loudly proclaim...

Yeah, it would be great if one of the mods could close this thread. I ordered an F-200 from GP2XStore and got it in 2 days (they literally shipped it out within a few hours of my order). They're really a great, reputable retailer. It really bugs me when people feel the need to talk trash about...

Well, my rom is verified by No-Intro, so that shouldn't be the problem. I tested the patched rom in ZSNES on my laptop and I had the same problem... also, I tried running the original unpatched rom on my GP2X, and it works on both Squidge and Pocket, so I guess that means that there's...

So, I'm trying to play Violinist of Hameln (Hamelin no Violin Hiki) for SNES. I patched the rom myself with an english translation using SNESTool, and I'm fairly confident that both the rom and translation patch are good quality. Unfortunately, when I try to play the game in either the newest...

Hrm. Well, I was reading some info that EvilDragon posted on the matter, and it seems that the F-200's that have the new touchscreen came pre-loaded with FW 4.0.2, and those particular units are totally incompatible with FW 4.0.0. So, since I have 4.0.0 on my unit, I must have one of the "old"...

Yes, I'd heard the same. I've only tested one touchscreen compatible game so far (Boomshine2x), and it works great, so I don't think I'll mess with the firmware at all -- I mean, why rock the boat, right? ;-)

OK, so once upon a time I owned a F-200 (back at launch, actually), but I sold it a few months later to relieve a little financial tension I was going through at the time. Recently, I got the itch to own another one, so I purchased one from gp2xstore.com a few days ago, while they're still...

A more accurate title for this thread/poll would be "Will You Be Disappointed WHEN The Pandora Is Not Perfect In Every Way", and the obvious answer (for some of the more vocal complainers around here) is YES: We're going to hear tons of bitching here at GP32X when some people come to that...

With the exception of a few units that have been sent to developers for free, there will be NO 2 d-pad Wiz's available... GPH has not sent any shipments to their distributors, and they won't until the unit is ready to sell, which now will be sometime in November because of the short delay caused...

You can also preorder at GBAX.com and GP2XStore.com. I seriously doubt that any of those sites (Play-Asia included) would have a different preorder (or cancel existing preorders and start from scratch) just because of the Pad to Buttons switch.

Hmm... I downloaded and installed Chrome and it doesn't do... anything. Every tab just has a big white page with absolutely nothing on it. I'm tried going to websites, and I even tried changing my homepage, but it's not doing anything whatsoever... it's not frozen, mind you. I can access options...

... I think some of you are misinterpreting this thread -- thinking that EvilDragon can now just go to GPH and get them to change any aspect of the Wiz. It's not going to happen, and it's completely unrealistic of anyone to think so. The change of the ABXY Pad into four separate buttons is a...

Dude, not only are you a miserable person, but we ALL could have done without this little fantasy of yours.

The utter irony of all this is that I had been waffling over whether or not to get the Wiz because of the ABXY Pad... everything else about it definitely appeals to me. Well, I decided I would pass on it, thinking that GPH would remedy the ABXY Pad issue down the road in a "MK2" model, and...

Um, where did you get the idea that a USB cord WOULD NOT be shipping with the Wiz? In the picture on the GP32X front page where it shows the Wiz packaging, it clearly shows a USB cord included with unit, CD, headphones, manual, etc..

Hmm, yes, I did see that it didn't work for some people, but on the other hand, it still has an overwhelming amount of positive ratings. I just get so wary of doing anything firmware related... Knowing my luck the one time I try to flash the fw, I'll brick my unit, haha. Well, if anyone knows...

So, after a lot of soul searching, I decided to buy another GP2X... I know both The Wiz and Pandora are on the horizon, but I wanted something tried and true (I've owned two GP2X's in the past -- an F-100 and an F-200, both of which were sold because I needed money at the time, heh), and I...

Well, hearing that the ABXY Pad (I *REFUSE* to call it a D-Pad, because it's not!!) is flexible, and can allow for simultaneous button presses, I'm even more enthused about the Wiz than before!!! :) And to all this "OMG! ONOEZ!!! GPH is anti-emulation now!!! TEH SUXXORZ!!!!" nonsense -- give me...
