Unlike the native A320 emulator, it looks like the Genesis/Megadrive emulator that ships with the new A330 works a charm:

Booboo returns – and a reason to buy the NEW Dingoo/Gemei A330
Well, I’ve been off on Mancation to Syria and Jordan recently, but returning now, I find the above news – 2 weeks late for you reading it here - but damn good news, DAMN GOOD NEWS; most of all for Booboo himself!
BACKHi all,
Bam. The A320 is legacy and is no longer being manufactured (plus there seem to be quite a bunch of knock-offs), so they want to focus on the A330. The A330 is based on an ARM SoC (CC1800) for which, as far as I know, there's not already a linux port (as opposed to the Ingenic SoCs)... so this might be a bit off my skills. We'll see. The x760+ is no longer produced so it might not be possible to get another one (remember, I already have one purchased with donations), which would be helpful because there are two x760+ LCD types. Having the schematics and example source code for the x760+ should make it much easier to get dingux up and running on it. Hate to say this, but don't hold your breath. Now I have some time and I'm very motivated (the ChinaChip support is a blast), but my personal situation might change at any time and the job that pays the bills will always be the topmost priority. And on the personal side (feel free to stop reading here): what's happened in the last year?. By the time I was forced to put dingux on hold my company was struggling to survive, and downsizing like mad, up to the point that the I was the entire development department. Soon I became also the administrative, customer relations, manufacturing, and installation/repair department. Really. My gmail inbox just collapsed and at a certain point I just gave up trying to reply messages. I'm really sorry if some people felt ignored. I was working on the hardware and OS of an OMAP3530 based facial biometrics access control system which was itself a quite complex project and wasn't expected to yield some income in the short term, so future looked grim. Then, all of a sudden, two customers (the local government of two small villages) contacted us regarding an outdoor wireless mesh PA system we used to develop and sell. There was an special stimulus plan from the spanish government which would provide financing for those two installations. This was unexpected, since the local governments are literally struggling to pay wages and as a contractor, you're lucky if you get paid six months after invoicing, but the stimulus plan changed the whole thing. It was evident that this was a one-time chance to get good, immediate revenue with a nice profit margin (not really, but we would be using stock that would otherwise have zero value), so I sort of finished the biometrics thingie as fast and as good as I could and jumped on to it. That was about april. To make things more fun, there were two choices: either use the v1 system, which had some problems, or finish the design of the v2 system, which would work much better, be easier to maintain, and allow to use all the existing equipment stock. So, I don't fucking know why, I went with the second, and from april to june (remember, at that time I was pretty much the whole company):
I spent july doing some adjustments to the wireless mesh nets. The customers paid promptly (nice special requirement of the stimulus plan, they must pay you before they get paid by the central government, otherwise... you know... six months to one year), which means we would be able to close the year in the green. So I needed some rest and time with my family and went on vacation for the whole month on august. The last month I've been working a bit more on the biometrics stuff and developing an asterisk based voice inbox for the PA system, which is a late special request by one of the customers, but makes a good addition to the feature list of the system (which I'm not sure matters at all because I think we're not selling any more for a long time, at least here in Spain). The outdoor IP amplifier is a good piece of engineering and there's a slight chance that could be sold to another company. We'll see. As I said, we're on the green up to the end of 2010, but there's no income prospect for 2011. So, while now I have some time to work on dingux, and I intend to take it easy for the next months, I will be looking for a new job, new city, new country, not necessarily in that order :-) |
For those of you new to the scene, Booboo is:
1. da bomb
2. the dude without which, the Dingoo scene would be very much less of a scene
3. from the above, a very good reason to not buy the A330 that looks like a poor man’s PSP , but wait instead for the Gemei A330 – this beastie, which now, confirmed, comes exclusively with liberal doses of Booboo genius:
Booboo, you’ve had a tough year, but we’ve never forgotten! All our best from your number one fans, here at Dingoo-scene!
Dingoo/Gemei A330 (New) Review – Need to brush up on your Mandarin though …
The original makers of the A320 have (almost, really, any day now, kinda) released their helpfully named version of the A330. Here’s a 3 part video review:

S is a seekrocket. It randomly chooses a (normal) alien as target and destroys it. It is fired by using "B".
B is a bomb. It just flies ahead and, when hitting an alien, it does not only destroy this (normal) alien but all (normal) aliens around as well. It's fired by the "A" key.

Super Mario War 1.7 (April Fools Edition)
September 29, 2010
Here is a new version of Super Mario War!

The goal is to stomp as many other Marios as possible to win the game.
It's a tribute to Nintendo and the game Mario War by Samuele Poletto.
The game uses artwork and sounds from Nintendo games. We hope that this noncommercial fangame qualifies as fair use work. We just wanted to create this game to show how much we adore Nintendo's characters and games.
