    GP32's Popularity

    Geez man, one question: where do you work? Hmm... videogame store, right? I work at a movie theatre, and while a couple guys said "cool" when I broke out the GP machine during break, you couldn't sell one of these people a frontlit unit for fifty bucks while wearing a brightly-colored hat the...

    Is Emulation Wrong?

    LO -friggin- L. Seriously guys, I'm just glad GP32x humors discussion about emulation and roms. Hypocritically, it appears the first rule of so many emulation-related forums I've frequented is that you do not talk about emulation. It's censorship started by fear, and kills healthy, often...

    Is Emulation Wrong?

    Not as simple as that to me. Intent has a lot to do with whether theft is wrong, as stealing an inflatable swimming pool from Inflatable Swimming Pools R Us is wrong, but stealing a loaf of bread from a supermarket to feed your starving family is.. well, let's just agree it's less wrong...

    Do you recommend Flashing FW?

    Not at all, if you follow the simple instructions outlined on http://faq.gp32emu.com. I was surprised how quick and painless the flashing procedure actually was, and it cuts my GP32 boot time drastically -- I am playing games or listening to music almost instantly! Your best choice will...

    SNES9xgp

    This is a valid question, but you are likely to receive a million different opinions on "playability", as preferences vary extremely. Basically, with the current version of SNES9xgp you need to make a sacrifice in one or more of the following areas to enjoy a game; speed, or perhaps fluidity...

    GP32 Webbrowser

    Actually, if you had a little sister who "must check" her email "right now" but you're in the middle of a heated diablo match or whathaveyou, you could hand her the GP32 and never leave your computer. Perhaps. You see, a GP32 web browser may indeed have some creative uses right now.

    Guide to opening/dyeing GP32

    Like your guide mentioned, I won't risk it, jjthe2. But FWIW, yours turned out pretty damned sweet!

    Warning about 6-in-1 internal card reader

    ..and then purchase a kickass Enlight one from Newegg. Works like a charm and looks good in a floppy bay, if that matters to you. Model ReX-D01, and the Biostar model looks pretty good too, for a few bucks less.

    Backlighted gp32 4 sale

    Everyone can relate to the horrors of catching a bus, but while a car is an investment to some people, it is a get-rich-quick scheme to no one. In all reality, they are a pain in the ass. JDUK, you forgot to mention the price of gas, tires, oil, constant repairs, insurance, traffic tickets...

    W00T! Got my GP32 now.

    NssOne, you're not the only one to have this problem. Apparently the manual writer and artist didn't have very good communication, because the SMC in the illustrations is happily floating in and out of the system pointed the wrong way. What a headache. Every problem but this one seems to be...

    GP32 - after a couple months, what do you think?

    I am very happy with my GP32 purchase. Most of my time is devoted to the NES emulator, LJGP32, and Day of the Tentacle on SCUMMGP (ack, I'm stuck, but I'm too stubborn to read a walkthrough!). My only disappointment is the control stick, though I realize a lot of people enjoy it. It looks and...

    Sam and Max Freelance Police

    I didn't know about this sequel until I visited the Lucasarts web site a few days ago. Not sure how many of you knew about this, but since LucasArts adventures are so popular among GP32 owners and I hadn't seen word of it here yet, there you go.

    SNES9Xgp v0.95b Released

    To me, one game works perfectly, or as perfect as it needs to be: WORMS. I know most people like the PC version(s) more, but as SNES Worms was my first Worms game it has a very special place in my heart. The speed and sound are just fine at about frameskip 3, and dropped frames don't make much...

    to FLU or not to FLU

    I can't begin to imagine what Mofo would want to keep secret from us. Porn or drugs no one would really care about -- so I think he's saving money for a GBA-SP! Long live the GBA!!!!!!!! jkjkjkjkjk Back to the FLU topic, if there is still a doubt in anyone's mind, I never play without the...

    Gp32warez UPDATE!!!

    Evil, I loved it! Each of those screencaps on the "Pictures" page was great, especially the "folder is empty" message and the "hacked" Windups' background. Your humor is definitely appreciated, and this is one of the first good pure fansites I've seen for the GP32.

    Dreaded PC-Link Host

    Thank you everyone for the help! My reader arrived a few days ago and everything is great, I'm playing old NES and LucasArts games on my GP32 and listening to some *very clear* music through my studio phones. My only complaint now is as several people have mentioned, the joystick is overly...

    Dreaded PC-Link Host

    I have, and since you mentioned it, GiG, I think it is. Thanks! The smartmedia reader I bought online is coming Saturday, but I will ask Play-Asia for a replacement cable anyhow.
