    To me the Walking Dead is game of the year material cause I like choose your own adventure and point and click type games, not to mention the excellent characters and story.

     

    I heard Back to the Future is very good but Jurassic Park was a letdown. I picked up Back to the Future but haven't played it yet.

     

    Back to the Future and the Walking Dead are very good.

     

    Back to the Future was more of a point and click adventure than the Walking Dead "choose your own adventure style".

     

    I have not played Jurassic Park.

    My first challenge is actually finding a mini-SD card. I'll try MicroCenter, as Target does not have one.

     

    I went to a "dumpster party" yesterday(bring stuff you don't want, take stuff you do), and the Dingoo was a hit when I hooked it up to the TV. People were taking turns playing Galaga, with a session of Fester's Quest beforehand, both in NES mode. One user did report hand cramping though, as I did.

     

     

    I notice hand cramps when playing MegaMan X on Snes. The buttons are a little close to hold it like a standard snes controller, but with some work you can find a position that helps.

    Yeah, the a330 isn't much of an improvement. Improve the CPU, and add wifi with SMB sharing/syncing... I'll gladly upgrade.

     

     

    I would upgrade if they offically went Dingux out of the box on it.

     

    Installing the Dingux loader is such a trivial thing. Having the OS run off the SD card also saves you from potentially bricking the device with simple OS updates.

     

     

    I feel if the official OS was Dingux there would be vast improvements to it. It would maybe even get tv out working in dingux. :)

    I have not played with the 7800 emu on it in a while, but if I remember right I also used it to play the 2600 roms with out issue.

     

    For anyone looking for a better SNES emulator. I would suggest installing Dingux on it. SNES plays great other than the odd game using a customer chip.

    My bad it seems it is for the EUR NES.

     

    Since Camerica still lacked license to produce NES games, they had to create their own cartridges
that would bypass Nintendo's lock-out chip. Like the circuit used in Color Dreams cartridges, the
Camerica lock-out defeat generated glitch pulses that froze the chip. The cartridges they made were
shaped slightly differently from Nintendo's cartridges, though they still fit in the NES. The most
notable difference however was in color: all Camerica cartridges were gold and later silver. They
also featured a switch for play on European NES consoles.

    I picked up a odd looking gold NES game a few weeks back at the thrift shop. I never had really heard about it "The Ultimate Stuntman"... From playing it, I could have been just as happy never hearing about it...

     

    Anyway it has a switch on the back of the cart

     

    See here http://twitpic.com/zaurr (Sorry phone pic).

     

    I have looked on google and it seems to get around some NES license issue. Is this just a matter of them installing a switch that made it not play on a NES and saying the customer had to switch it to be able to play on a NES?

     

     

    Can anyone explain how this helped to get by license issues, or was it just a horrible attempt to get by them and Camerica ended up getting burned in the end?

    I would actually be interested in knowing this also. I have been playing with the idea of replacing all my console systems for a PC. I have used freevo in the past to play everything up to a Neo-Geo, but It would be nice to still collect all the systems and games, but only need a small quiet PC with usb game pads for playing them on the tv.

     

    Looking over most of the emu's for it I can find, they are still pretty buggy and not really going to replace the need for a console version anytime soon.

    anyone tried the 7800 emu? still waiting for my miniSD card to show up, bloody UK postal system:x

     

    The 7800 emu works great for me. I used it on 2600 roms also with no issue.

    I am hoping for a update the snes emu and a 2600 emu that works on the standard Dingoo firmware.

     

    Snes emulation is not horrible, mind you it does have some issues. But is completely playable for most games.

    A good dingoo forum... http://a320.freeforums.org/

     

    Just got mine 2 days ago, haven't much time to hack at it. Would really like a 2600 emu for starters. Claims to have mp4 support, but the file I tested it with, didn't work.

     

     

    I am pretty sure it comes with some sample mp4's installed on it that worked for me.

     

    Yes a 2600 emu would rock! I really hope some more homebrew emulators start to come out for the dingoo os, but I have a feeling the linux booting will turn into the standard and most stuff will run under it.

    Is it emulating any Atari stuff yet?

     

    No I have not tried overclocking it. I dont really have any issues with speed yet.

     

    I am noticing a issue with games that would normally have a batter save state like Super PunchOut. They crash when the game tries to save to the battery. Hopefully another update to the emulator will be out soon and fix this.

     

    Also games from SNES that used the FX Chip don't work. :(

     

    Overall though it is a pretty great little system for the price and even just for NES games I am happy.

     

    Not sure but I bet the linux version has some people working on porting stella to it.

    I have just added a SD card to the system today and just noticed that the 4GB of space on the device does not support long file name support (A real pain for naming roms). The add in card how ever does support long file names! Looks like I will just be getting a nice big mini sd card for keep everything on it.
