"Smach Z is Back!" ...?

True, it's a skinny player holding the device close to the camera. Still big, but more of a shake-shoe than a skate-board I think,

Also, I wonder what kind of vents this thing has for the sort of power budget that CPU has. That one vent at the back looks a little narrow and is likely to sound a bit noisy I reckon, especially if it's the only outlet this thing has.

Day 2 purchase!

I'm just about to order the Ultra model, but then I noticed in FAQs it says..."RAM upgradable - up to 8GB", yet I'll be getting one with 16GB RAM. How's that possible?

I hope Smach Z comes out in time for Christmas, because I wanna be able to play this thing during my Chrissy holidays

Man, if the Smach Z still manages to come out after being blown out by GPD Win, I won't even need EvilDragon in order to have faith in the Pyra. Apparently, anything will come out if you just wait long enough.

*starts holding breath on new Sega console*

WHAT DID YOU SAY? I CAN'T HEAR YOU, THE FAN IS TO LOUD!...
Really, that noise would annoy me within a second. And what a brick the Smach Z is, I remember the Atary Lynx well, I guess the battery runtime is also as low as the abysemal one from the Lynx.

Where's the 32GB RAM configuration? Or isn't it for sale?

Sekiro is shit, but The Witcher III is awesome

Reminds me , I need to get and try a steam controller. Still have never tried one

 

[Nintendo]

Will take forever to get used to.

70 minutes playtime at 25W max? People were complaining when the Lynx topped out at 4 hours.

Still, remains to be seen what it'll do at a more moderate wattage, but that's not the most promising initial stat.

I think Phawx said that when he removed 24GB of the 32GB it had, power draw dropped by 20W. So amount of RAM looks to be a huge factor. I don't think the standard model has anywhere near that amount of RAM

True. Didn't he say in that video it had two sodimm slots? I guess if he had a couple of 4GB sodimm's floating about he could have swapped them in, assuming they need to be matched pairs.

 

[Nintendo]

I think he mentioned that the Smach Z had 2 x 16GB RAM?

Didn`t he say, that he disabled SMP or 2 Cores and then the power consumption dropped by 20%?
