GP2X F-200
The F-200 model was just released. I'm going to grab one before I grab a PSP. Does anyone else have one?
I got one about a month ago, and it's absolutely brilliant.
Quite a few people complain about the d-pad because it's made up of 4 independent buttons which isn't particularly good for fighting games, but it's a significant improvement over the f-100's joystick for everything else (there are still a couple of compatibility problems with some games, but most have been fixed by now, or will be very shortly).
As far as emulation is concerned Sega Megadrive/Mega CD emulation is absolutely perfect, even better than kega fusion on pc. SNES, MAME and GBA are all quite reasonably emulated, but require the clockspeed to be turned way up, absolutely killing the battery life. Playstation and PC-Engine emulation aren't nearly as good as the others, but quite a few games run fairly well.
The homebew games on the console are nothing short of excellent, Sqdef and the Cave Story port suit the console very well.
