Gamebox console?

Post by PSony »

Just came across this thing:

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.54070

It's an emulation machine that claims to support CPS1/CPS2/CPS3/MAME/MVS. Is there any more information on this?

I had never heard of it before you posted this. At first, a Chinese console that just runs emulators and loads the games off an SD card didn't sound too compelling. After looking at some info about it though, the price is appealing, and the specs make it plausible that it might do a good job. I'm a bit disappointed that it only seems to support composite AV cables but oh well. I would also be interested to hear from anybody who has one.

It's cool that it uses USB controllers. Who wants to take one for the team and buy one?

Apparently the manual even states that it has a slot for loading GBA carts:
