They are copying the method of Craigix by sending free units to devs, and trying to get them to support their device.
Craig only rewards emulator authors. GPH have been kind enough to reward homebrew game developers too and for this I love them
Ah, Sam, nice to see you back to your old self, saying things you could not possibly know about.
Let's see:
http://gbax.gp2x.de/ - several hundred homebrew games produced with thousands of pounds worth of prizes given out over the years across loads of systems, including systems I don't even sell.
Numerous GP32 and GP2X consoles donated to people from this scene (and other scenes) for all kinds of projects, not just emulators as you claim, something which will continue with the Pandora.
We also did things such as manufactured a replacement cap for the F100 and gave it away free with the F100 (cost: $7,000) when GPH just ignored us.
Then at the end of this I make homebrew games and utils myself!
Ye nut!
I just meant that you don't tend to give out dev kits to homebrew devs not that you haven't supported the community in other ways.
