I tried to get it to run on A320 some months ago, without success.
The Ben Nanonote, which has a very similar hardware as the A320, does support Allegro so that shows it can be done.

I pre-ordered my GCW a while ago, in that time I got a little impatient and bought a ydgp16, which is awesome. That should tide me over until October.

Just read over in OP that GCW's planning on an Oct 1st release date for the SE's and Oct 13th for public release. Booya!

Not bad at all  ;)
Delayed again. sucks  :(

Again?
GCW quotes-Tentatively release date in Mid July to Early August 2012.
We are looking mid to late August maybe first to mid September.
Now on a serious side the GCW-Zero Special Editions is slated for release on Oct 1st, 2012.
Waiting still sucks but okay though for GCW to have more time to work on the bugs instead.

GCW please let us know how good N64 emulator is improving.

Thanks for the reply. Shame it appears to be quite finicky to get it working, which will likely dissuade the Zelda Classic devs from attempting a port (I doubt they'd release the source code for someone else to try, but who knows. Can always ask when October rolls around).

I do remember the original estimate for September at the latest. So I guess you could call it a delay, but only very technically. I couldn't care less, I'm just excited we have a date we can mark on our calendars now.

I've said it in the past but it's worth repeating at this stage of the game: I hope they meet their target release date but manufacturing problems are not unheard of, especially for a company releasing their first handheld. If they have delays from the factory, try not to hold it against them. Complaining isn't going to get it to your door any sooner.

For anyone who didn't get a SE pre order in on time -I'm not saying this is their policy- but you might try to email GCW because I'll bet my next paycheck a handful of those who pre ordered will cancel or won't pay the remainder of their balance when it comes time to do so for whatever reason.

A quick video of a proof-of-concept Flare port:
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ByntXTSCBM" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ByntXTSCBM</a>
It was intended for the devteam eyes only, but I was asked to post it anyway, so don't complain about the recording quality ;)

Also, don't get your hopes up too much, the game is not playable and needs *a lot* of work to it. So a release probably won't happen too fast. However, it's a good example of what we can run with all that extra ram compared to the Dingoo A320.
