the screen is not protected good, so people should take care of it, otherwise scratches will be in it very soon. but i think you can buy transparent-protection-leaf and put it over the screen, but i dont did this. i bought me a good case and hope nothing will happen.

bleepbloop, because of snes emulation and other stuff, maybe the dingoo a-320 could be interesting for you.
here is a link: http://www.chinavasion.com/advanced_...ngoo&Submit=GO

it can emulate many consoles and for all the things thats possible with it, its very cheap (58 euro or cheaper when you buy more of it)

i have read reviews of the dingoo, and its a nice little machine, and for a really good price, but, even with all of its features, its a bit expensive for me.

Well but can the gopher save games then?
Have you tried creating a .sav file with the same name? or place a save file with that name on the sd card?
Does it have any updateable firmware?
Maybe USB connection can see some files?

**AW72** · December 19th, 2009, 14:14

usb-connection shows nothing and if the firmware could be updatet i asked at@games about 5 times with email, but they dont answer at all - no response to any question about their console is really unbelievable

**Neoblast** · December 19th, 2009, 17:36

well , maybe they do answer phone calls...

**AW72** · December 30th, 2009, 19:55

you can try, NEOBLAST and then report what they said

if somebody from at@games goes to the phone *lol*

i made me a little joystick, which can be screwed on a selfmade gamepad of my gopher to have better control in some games like "streetfighter" and so on.

therefore i made me a little plastic-joystick and gamepad with an alu-thread in the middle which i glue over the normal gamepad. (this pad dont have a steering-cross on it, because i had no pad left here and must tech me one. but this really isn`t a disadvantage, you can steer as good as before, maybe even a little bit better to the diagonals, because it comes higher out of the case. maybe later i put a gamepad with a steering cross on it, when i had one left in black color, i will see).

when you screw the little stick on it, special-moves in fighting-games are much easier to make than with the gamepad alone, especially when you hold the stick like it can be seen on one of the pics.

after i knew that this works good, i did the same to my dingoo, which also can be seen on the pics :thumbup: i put the dingoo-pics also on a german dingoo-forum, that people can see.

here are some pics for you.

***wraggster*** · December 30th, 2009, 20:27

i like the modded dingoo and gopher btw, great for beatem ups like streetfighter ?

**AW72** · December 30th, 2009, 21:38

yes, good for beat-em-ups or other games where you need diagonals much.
steering is not as good as with an arcade-digital-joystick, but much better than with the gamepad, for some kind of games.
