TVSkelton’s JXD S602 in action videos

Image
Skelton’s got a JXD S602 – and he’s videoed it; time for all of us to celebrate! I’ve been a little late in posting these, so they’ve built up. But on the plus side, it’s like watching all 8 episodes of the current season of Breaking Bad in one large hit.  Enjoy, bitches!

Announcing another Android TV USB Stick thing

Image
Our very good friends at Willgoo are stocking this now, for a lowly $71.99. and would like me to let you all know about it. These have become somewhat common nowadays – I blame the Raspberry Pi.  Although of course, they are a different class of device altogether: much smaller, easier to set up, and with Android 4.0, sporting a decent interface to turn a dumb to smart TV with little effort. And as the picture shows, this one had a dual core CPU and 1 GB of RAM .     You could do much worse, and so, if you get one from this link , I get a little cut.

CZDoom for Dingoo A-380/A-320e

CZDoom for Dingoo A-380/A-320e « on: September 23, 2012, 02:19:43 PM » Hello, Here's a CZDoom port for the Dingoo A-380/A-320e. It's based on PRBoom ( http://prboom.sourceforge.net) and ported by Joyrider and CongoZombie to the Dingoo. It has been recompiled with a new sdlwrapper from d_smagin. The old one from Ayla would probably have worked too, but I thought that it would be a good idea to try the new version from d_smagin, who made it to make it compatible with C++. Download: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/525714/Open-Source%20Games/CZDoom.zip Enjoy DOOM on your Dingoo A-380/A-320e without the screen issue.

New custom firmware for dingoo technology a380

Image
Great news from alien grey for Dingoo A380 users: Re: New Dingoo A-380 Firmware V2.04.00 « Reply #251 on: Today at 06:23:36 PM » The new custom Dingoo A-380 Firmware Version 2.04.00 is available for download. New in this custom firmware is a new menu item "SDL Emulators" and a new full speed SEGA Mega Drive emulator build by d_smagin. How to use this emulator: From my own experience use 8 bit fast and Frameskip 0 or Auto and Sound quality 16000Hz stereo for full speed. Some games won't run without graphical glitches with these settings. To fix that use 16 bit or 8 bit accurate with frameskip Auto but keep the sound quality at 16000Hz stereo. Other settings may also work very good but these are the ones that I'm using. Settings can be saved to change them as the default ones but it's also possible to save settings for a single game if necessary. Note: To enter the menu press Select. Enjoy your new full speed SEGA Mega Drive emulator. Thanks to

Skelton’s JXD S602 Mini-Review

Source: http://boards.dingoonity.org/android-devices/the-upcoming-new-device-jxd-s602-with-android-4-0-multi-playing-4gb/msg48224/#msg48224 Skelton shares his thoughts in the Dingoonity forums about the brand new JXD S602. It looks like a winner IMHO: Ok, I just got mine. Here are my initial impressions, specially for those that are interested specially comparing to s601: - Design is a bit better, D-PAD and buttons are softer than s601 (specially L and R buttons), and screen is abit more responsive. - System comes with a series of emulators installed for all common systems (PSX, n64, GBa, MD, SNES, NES, MAME, etc..) all in one package called gamemulator. The good thing is that we can install the emulators we want without the need of uninstalling the stock ones, so we can have our own emulators and the "GameEmulator" app included in the device. - Performance in emulators i

MG Android gaming device for kids

Image
With no dpad to be seen for miles, this fails every retrogamer’s requirements in droves, but it’s always good to see what’s available in the same price bracket as the JXD S602’s and YDPG 17’s of this world … Source: http://www.ubergizmo.com/2012/09/%EF%BB%BFmg-android-gaming-device-for-kids-in-the-making/ …. This may change with MG, a new Android gaming device in the making which is meant exclusively for  kids. It’s a fairly simple device which runs on Android, comes pre-loaded with a number of games and doesn’t feature any connectivity options or even a camera. And that is precisely why, PlayMG believes its upcoming device is good enough for the kids. … MG packs a 1GHz Cortex A5 processor, 1GB DDR3 RAM, 4GB of internal storage which can be expanded via microSD and a Wi-Fi radio. It also comes with a number of sensors which would be required by a number of modern day games, including an accelerometer amongst others.

Good news … and bad news on the Wikipad

Image
We heard about this Android tablet gaming device thingamijig back in Jan 2012 , and the good news is that it appears that its release date has now moved to real soon now status – October 31 2012, apparently: http://www.theverge.com/2012/9/6/3298781/gamestop-to-sell-wikipad-gaming-tablet-on-october-31st-for-499 The Wikipad has had quite a ride. In January , it was a small no-name Android 4.0 tablet with an unproven processor, a glasses-free 3D screen, an optional game controller attachment, and a sub-$250 price. Eight months later, the likes of Sony and Nvidia are backing a rather different Android 4.1 gaming slate that will retail at brick and mortar GameStop stores for $499. Today, Wikipad is simultaneously announcing pre-orders for the tablet at that price, and revealing the final design: Now, it's a sleek black 10.1-inch slate that's just 8.6mm thin — one of the thinnest we've ever seen — and weighs less than 560 grams, or a pound and a quarter

NesterOD 0.1 for OpenDingux

Image
NesterOD 0.1 NESTERDC has been ported to OD! Release Notes: Hi, this is a port of “NesterDC for SDL” (which is part of a port of Nester for the Sega Dreamcast). Yes, another NES emulator for OpenDingux, but I think this one is the best (all credits to Nester and NesterDC developers). Features: - Based on NesterDC 7.1 - Almost fullspeed without frameskip at 336Mhz - Really good sound at 44100Mhz - Save/Load states - SRAM support - Support for a LOT of mappers (~130) - Added support for .zip files Not tested: - FDS support. The code is there, maybe it works! - External devices (gun, keyboard, paddle) - Tested on OpenDingux first end-user release, but maybe it works in older versions. For the next release I’ll add: - GUI - Fullscreen mode - Optimizatio

Thanks to Seagal, and keep up the great work!: Hi! I'm porting Neopop emulator for dingoo a320 Native firmware. Currently is in very basic stage, but most games are playable.

JXD S602 now available from Willgoo – only $65.99!

Possibly one of the more successful Android Consoles, the JXD 601 certainly has support among both devs and users.  And now, you can buy its successor, the JXD 602 from Willgoo for a hilarious $65.99, shipping included !   As far as I can tell from this thread , the main improvements over the JXD S601 are: * Dual HDMI display (Hmm … I think this means it displays on the console’s screen and on the TV at the same time … anyway, the original JXD S601 only output video via composite) * Multiplayer Linking * Android V4.0 installed as stock * Battery bumped up from 2300 mah to 2500 mah * Improved buttons feel * Slightly slimmer Click here if you would like to buy one from Willgoo and also help support this l’il ol site.
