So today I received this neat little handheld, which uses the same processor as the retro mini
Hopefully we can get some development going for this processor!
Here's some pics!
Mostly it's the same as the retro mini, although sound emulation seems to be even worse (?) or on par while emulation itself seems to be slightly better.
Some data:
70mb internal memory (or 2gb?)
folder structure:
- EBOOK
- GAME
- GMPIC
- MUSIC
- PICTURE
- SAVE
- SYSTEM
- VIDEO
The cps1 games are .zip format.
GMPIC contains a <title.format>_a.png and <title.format>_b.png, each 110x80 pixels (didn't try other dimensions yet).
SYSTEM contains cpslist.txt, gamelist.txt, gconfig.txt and system.cfg
cpslist and gamelist each contain all games with their respective file ending which are displayed in that order on the handheld.
gconfig.txt sets the title text of your games list. At least that's what I thought, but when I changed it nothing changed on the system, so who knows what it actually does.
In the system settings, the internal memory is listed as 2GB.
When I opened it up there was some sticky foam on the LCD ribbon connector. I removed it and then the display stopped working, so the cable seems to be quite wonky. stuffed some folded paper in and it works again
Oh and the sound resets every time you start up the handheld, which means an annoying startup tune every time. No playing in secret for you!
Sorry if the text it a little messy
