Hi !


Tomorrow the 10 october 2012 at 19:00, i'll make a demo of the Pandora in a geek bar in Paris, near République:

32, rue Albert Thomas, 75010


Any help is welcome. And any visitor :^).


If all goes right, the owner is ok for another event in one month.
 
PSX and N64 emu, Qemu + starcraft, video playing etc...


Unfortunately, their video input (thay have many screens) is hdmi only, so i'll make a 15mn speech, then i'll sit at a table and have my little stand.
 
You could show my Microbes game as an example of something that was coded entirely on the Pandora itself, using the Pandora keyboard. ~4k lines of C++.


You can use my system info thingie to demonstrate battery life. That one is also coded on the Pandora itself btw, but it's just a small program.
 
I'm not sure the coding is the main interest in a gamer bar ;^).


Yup i may show the system info.
 
Some gamers might be interested in making their own game :)


It's also a good way to demonstrate that the keyboard works well, which might be important for some PC games (e.g. ScummVM).

That could be a real drawback. Nevertheless: Good luck for you!


Maybe Dune 2 in UAE would be interesting to the audience since it is the first real time strategy game?
 
I used to teach Linux, and especially Slackware.


It was part of my job as an IT technician in a tech section of an university.
 
Do you have the super maio war PND?


That's one of the best multiplayer games I've ever seen.


There's so much modes you can play and you can adjust anything.


It also supports the ICP in joipad-mode. It's really great and so much fun.


Unfortunately it's not in the Repo but I can give it to you if you want to.
 
it was good to meet up with LS at the geek bar, shame i could not stayed longer to have a drink, maybe next time!
 
Yup, always nice to see each other in the real world ^^.


Funny thing is that Peelie is probably the teacher of some of my ancient students.


So we got three persons very interested, gave some ads.


The guys from the bar suggested me to leave an unit here for demoing their customers/friends, and also to organize a video game competition.


Super smash bros 1v1 on N64 or SF III third strike on fba.


I don't know if we can play them with two usb controllers.


Will think about it.

No, i mostly spoke about the unit, ran a movie on my pico projector and played Marvel Super Heroes vs a friend and using the iCP.


Do you know guys how to run 3rd strike ?

Off-topic, but how do you use the iCP with the Pandora ? Is it easy to connect and configure ?
