Gamepark: Will It Stay Alive?

[DaveC]

No, but I just don't know if I am going to wait a lonlonglong time to save money and buy a Gizmondo and games, or if I save money and buy an gamepark in 2 months, but I can not make games or something so when every1 else does't use their gamepark anymore I bought my gp32_console for nothing

​

Gizmondo!? With that tiny 2.8" screen? And what about it being a closed system? BAH! Just get a BLU now.

Maybe you're rigt, but because I have to save monet for a long time (school ) I must be sure there will be lots of software coming in the future, and the Gizmondo is just sooo cool, (only it's screen not) , but expensive. I have 2 questions:
1: Is it possible that there will be any new/other gameparks soon?
2: when buying a gamepark from gbax.com, wich one should I take when I look at my budget too?

It depends a bit on this forum... I'll never stop playing Mega Drive with DrMD 2.0, though.

Maybe the unexpected thing is the cellphone interface
GPi or something...

has the GP32 reached its full potential yet? Close?

 

[onionfrog]

The Gp32 has yet to reach its limits...
We could probably have better snes emulation...
Neo geo pocket and wonderswan should be emulatable perfectly...
Plus there probably alot of things that i am missing that could still be done...
Besides, even if the scene died today, there would still be thousands and thousand of games to play on gp32 through the emulators that we already have... h34r:

It was said a while back by Gamepark that they planned on releasing the GP32 to more countries in 2005. This means to me no new GP at least for more than a year.

Gizmondo will be real expensive because you have to purchase every single game for it because there is no HB allowed on it. It will get REALLY expensive when you add in the cost of all of the games. Also the fact is the PSP will crush the giz.

Get a 166 Mhz version of the BLU. It is worth the extra little bit.

​

It has not reached its potential yet, not even close. Look at all of the emus 16-bit and under. The GP32 has the ability to emulate most of those full speed with full sound. That hasn't happened yet so there is plenty of room to grow still.

I'm suprised Squenix haven't done anything, they even made stuff for the WSC!!

Wonderswan color from BANDAI, they had kinda big budget

 

[schaap2005]

OK, so I can better buy an Gampark gp32, because many many ppl keep making software, and because the chance is small that there will be a new Gamepark soon.
OK, I am going to buy an Gamepark when I have the money , gifts!

The Gamepark is excellent! i've had mine for a few months now and have about 10 128 smc's full of crap, and i'm sorted pretty much forever. the homebrew games are looking better and better all the time, and dr. md is amazing! there's no point upgrading unless something powerful enough to emulate the ninty 64 is relesed. but that's gonna take years yet, because my freinds 2.0 ghz pc can only just emulate it to a playable speed, my 3.2 emulates it perfect. in the world of emulation, CPU is pretty much everything, and as far as handhelds go, the gamepark is prolly can't be improved to a noticable degree at the moment.

Has anyone from Gamepark actually contacted big companies regarding rights to port or remake various commercial games from PC or other systems directly to the GP32 as commercial releases?
