KNC unveils HR-2800 do-it-all handheld

The button positioning is horrid. Also, I dont think they can legally sell a system with emulators on it. They would have to get special rights to do so.

When one thinks of all in one there sould be at the very least 4 buttons on the face of the thing 5 buttons dont make us laugh this thiing is cool i guest but does not compare to the number of buttons for and "all in one" i wish they would make and all in one with two analogs sticks 4 buttons on face and four buttons on top that i could call "ALL IN ONE" at least enough buttons to play N64 games on it. maybe its just me

Assuming this is real, and I think it is, and looking past the lack useful controls (particularly no analogue stick), for it or a better configured successor to be of serious interest to the homebrew scene it would have gather a community of developers around it so SNES, Neo-Geo, Megadrive emulators, etc. can be ported. This is by no means impossible with the right machine and I think in time it will become inevitable.

For every person who goes to the trouble of acquiring an expensive PSP and knowing how to reflash the firmware or run devhook there must be a hundred people who would like a hassle free handheld emulation console. Obviously the GP2X already fills that role, but is somewhat expensive for what it is, and has no major distribution channels.

When the day comes that a properly configured, specced, and priced handheld emerges from one of these chinese factories and finds its way into Target/Walmart/K-Mart chains then homebrew focus is going to shift from the PSP. So what we'll have is a bigger, albeit fragmented homebrew scene. I am looking forwards to this as currently our hobby is dependent on a single hostile hardware supplier.

PS. Now where has that PSX emulator gotten to? And when will GPSP be updated?

Ugly looking machine. I think it will die a Gizmondo-style death.
Congrats on the 1st post. You're the best!!

Did any hear the sarcasm alert?

I agree with this. Although, I have been wrong before.

I would think you would be right about that.

If you want something like this...go with the far superior GP2X.

I fear that the low price will be paid back with low quality. This thing could have had serious potential if they had worked harder on it and put a $175 price tag on it or something.

420 thats all i see
