  • 100Bitgame yeah i know but the emulators are legal? =o

  • :/ i dont get it, this consoles are pirate or unlicense or something like that? cuz this play snes games, genesis and other

  • @pulsini don't you know what an emulator is?

  • @pulsini Just be warned, the emulator are community made. Some games suffer a little here and there but that's due to the coding of the emulators.

    If anything Mod a psp that is not a 3000 model if you want more dedicated emulators.

  • best part of this review : THE BEATLES.The rest of the review is pretty good too though:)Good job

    

  • Can someone answer this or the canoo

  • i remember in 2005 i had a smartphone that could run megadrive emulators, the button lay out didnt really work though! actually on the same phone i remember being able to emulate the pc version of doom!

  • nintendo 64?

    

  • is this or the dingoo better

  • @MrDavidtron7 I had the Dingoo and it sucked. Badly. One day I'll get whatever GP32 has out at the time, because I've heard better things about them.

  • @MrDavidtron7 i say if you can the xperia play, android based n can run up to ps1 and one of the best dpads ive seen on a handheld

  • I got mine off ThinkGeek(dot)com for $105..Shipping Included. This thing Rocks! I does so great with more than just Emulated Game Playing. The Microphone has some Great Gain Clarity than most Voice Recorders. The only think that kinda sucks is the Internet.and having to kinda Scavenge are for things in Support and more..even if you go to the Forum for it. The CD Guide doesn't give you much Info on what it can do either. When you do get all you want adjusted to it..then it's the Best Ever!

  • i need that!

  • i think ill buy a gp2x caanoo this week.

  • that "SANG" box got my attention since "sang" means blood in french...

  • 5:55, looks laggy as hell?

  • I really don't like how Technology has to get Smaller as it gets Newer.

  • @JaredThaJa Yeah i dont like that either. I also dont see how even though the new version of somthing can be twice as powerful but be much smaller.

  • @JaredThaJa now really.... phones got bigger... :)

  • @JaredThaJa not the case for the ps vita

  • no wi fi ?

  • @codybrady100 u can get a wifi usb adapter....it should work (cheap on amazon, i think 3.00$)

    and im pretty sure the wifi adapter isnt bulky not bulky, measurements should be 3m

  • Im selling mine perfect condition box book n all for $80, have quake doom and some other stuff for it aswell let me know if your interested.

  • could you do a gp2x caanoo review

  • beatles are beast.

  • Crappy d-pad

  • u dont need a special wall adapter. just use your phone charger

  • thumps up for the psp prototype

  • you should have gotten the Dingoo A320 and uploaded dingux to it it's far more powerful with more support, and greater compatibility. It's larger the only benefit of this is the touch screen, personally I have an A320 and love it.

  • @durk20 How can it be a better system? The Wiz has a faster processor and a better quality screen in addition to it being touchscreen. 

  • @UFRecords01 Dingoo has a better community because it's cheaper. Your hardware can be awesome, but programming is what counts. I will concede that the Wiz screen is much better, and the touchscreen is really cool.

  • can someone plz give me much more details about this? im really confused

  • whatever you want... I dont know what that means.

    lol

  • Comment removed

  • For the snes emulator press the two volume buttons to get out of the emulator.

  • You can use a iphone power adaptor, it is what I use and it works great.

  • you can exit without menu

  • I have the second generation model that I purchased for emulation. It was a bit flimsy, and I really disliked the AA battery issue. This model looks like much improved.

  • WTF?This thing came on same day as my birthday? xD

  • THIS COMES WITH BOOM SHINE :)..BEST INDIE GAME EVERRRRR!!

  • i love my wiz. How else can you carry the commodore 64, colecovision, atari 2600, nes, snes, genesis, arcade (mame), amiga, atari 7800, atari 800 / 8bit, atari st, vic20, pet, gameboy, gbc, gba, ibm pc (scumm), msx, spectrum, ti 99/4a, games, movies, music, tons of homebrew apps and games, and TONS more, and the ENTIRE libraries for ALL of these systems, and fit it ALL in your pocket with 100% playability and compatability ? Wiz RULES

  • @sonick808 How else? With a modded PSP. Hell , i think that even with a modded DS.

  • @reggiardito you can make it about halfway; i've got several of those running well on ds and psp (which was a PITA by comparison, especially the DS). But for the more obscure systems, the DS and PSP ports just dont' have the homebrew community behind them to the degree that the wiz ports do. I would assume because they're not open devices. Anyway, for compatability and # of platforms, wiz is at least 50% ahead.

  • @sonick808 can these play the ps1?

  • @DeathRhyme they sure can. As always, some games will have problems (i can't get parappa to work 100% for example), but many of the games work 90-100%. An example of a game that works great is crash bandicoot. The usual emulator issues apply, but i have an entire SDHC card dedicated to PS1 for mine.

    Kind regards

    -J

  • @sonick808 Do you know how much it is to get one of these now a days? Since your video was in 2009 probaly the price droped.

  • @DeathRhyme a quick google shows them in stock at thinkgeek for 99$. For all the emulator programs and goodies for the wiz, head here: dl dot openhandhelds dotorg/cgi-bin/wiz.cgi

  • @sonick808 Thankx.

  • gay version of ds nintendo

  • Looks a bit better than a Dingoo!

  • I've been rocking a PSP with homebrew on it for a while... would this be a good replacement? I have been wanting to actually play some PSP games on my PSP.

  • What format videos does it take?

  • i know this is off topic but WHY DOES THE PS3 HAVE TO UPDATE EVERY GAME YOU GET THE FIRST TIME YOU PLAY IT XD IT TOOK ME LIKE A HOUR TO UPDATE BURNOUT PARADISE

  • Does it have a game genie feature

  • speakers are much better than those on my mobile phones

  • Also it would be handy to know which handheld also gives good Video play back of most AVI DivX/Xvid Files without the need to re-encode them.

    So i am looking for a system to best emu all/most Arcade/console Systems prior to say N64/PSX and have good movie playback of XviD/DivX

    Dingoo are cheap but are they good enough, is the GP2X Wiz or Caanoo best options or are their any other consoles around the corner

  • @BanjoKiD2K If you can afford it, you can get a pandora. It will play just about anything in terms of video files and can emulate everything up to the n64 including the n64. They have analog and digital controls, great battery life, a keyboard, 2 sd slots, an 800x480 screen, wifi, etc... But they are $330.

  • @christo930

    Yeah they would have been handy also for Speccy Emu etc, but the DS is great for that as bottom becomes a touch screen keyboard.

    The thing is the Pandora is limited number and in UK about £280 when they are in stock....

    Would be better off with a notebook PC with 7" Screen lol...

    Pandora is good but maybe a tad expensive, i was going to go for the Wiz but worried about the buttons being a D pad config and most of all the screen tear, i may wait to see how the Caanoo matures.

  • @BanjoKiD2K The buttons just look like a dpad, they aren't though and the tearing has been fixed in most of the emulators.

  • @christo930

    Found a Pandora for sale on UK Ebay but the £540 Asking price is just plain silly thats like over $800 lol

    If they only cost about £180 ($270) i would get one, i guess because they are rare and limited number thats whay prices are high if they was mass produced like the Wiz and Dingoo i would expect prices tto be much less than the $500-700 i usually see them go for.

  • @BanjoKiD2K There are still being made and can be ordered for $330 USD.

  • @christo930 actually its at $120 now in thinkgeek

  • Well i am still waiting to see what happens with regards to consoles...

    I am after a system that can Emulate to near or exactly same standard as PC (even older ones like 600-800 Mhz) for all 16 bit systems and Arcade games.

    Would be bonus of Emulating latter systems but dont mind if N64 or Killer Incstinct 1+2 Arcade wont Emulate.

    So i would want to know which console would offer near perfect (as good as PC Emus for)

    Sega MS/GG and Genisis/MD

    Nintendo NES and SNES

    Neo Geo etc etc

  • you can get it at thinkgeek[.]com as of today

  • The only thing I don't like about it is the name. In old english, Wiz means Pee.

  • @rifleman1002 pretty sure that's regular english, and it's spelled whiz. wiz is short for wizard

  • @antonb000 still sounds wrong.

  • @rifleman1002 it can also mean smart... LIKE TEH ME BEIN MEHSELF

  • Maybe its a stupid question for everyone that I have to ask. My apologies but can ANYONE please tell me if that works on Windows Vista? Is there a specific system requirement? I looked and looked, but there is no information. I looked in Ebay, in google, and EVEN HERE, and I get no information! All I found its a Linux product, nothing more. I WANT TO GET ONE!!!!

  • @igrimy

    No, all you have to have is a working computer, preferably Windows :-D.

  • @crazyfooInc Thanks a lot, man!!!!

  • flash games ? cool thing :)

  • how much is ?

    looks cool :)

  • @Masterglitcher567

    Right now the price is hovering around $135-$150 :-D

  • you paid $187 for it how gay why would anything want it

  • @hamster700 kid get the fuck out its amazing

  • @hamster700 hey kid stfu will ya it is an emulator so its multiple systems and a touch screen you dont like it because its not main stream

  • @Head5h07 I dont like it becuse its shit

  • @hamster700 Well then i don't like you because your shit. Now did we get anywhere?

  • Person below is way too desperate for thumbs-up. Do not feed.

    Thumbs-up for the Beatles? Why not go for something even more universally loved? Thumbs-up for water and oxygen guys, show the love. Validate me PLEASE!

  • @MrJtorg I bet many dumbass kids would say "Who needs water"

  • The fingers you have selected to dial with are too fat

  • @MrJtorg to obtain a special dialing wand, please mash the key pad with your palm now.

  • Did get that system and really didn't like it, ended up just returning it. Most of the rom's play st 80% speed, even with a class 4 SD card, ended up just modding a PSP which does a lot better job at playing most the rom's.

  • @DrMR2002 you know you could set the speed for the games at 800 mhz

  • where can i find ported classic games for the gp2x wiz?

  • @Hunterriley30 openhandhelds . org

  • if you get the Dingoo, gamester, get the Dingux software installed on it, because from what i read, it works better than the stock software. as well the PSP/PSPGo Clones are supposed to be good for emulation and media

  • a psp can do everything this device can + much more.

    its a nice gimmick, but if you wanna have a device to USE it, then get a PSP.

  • @0M9H4X hahahahahahahahaha pathetic troll is pathetic

  • @simiolonga Epic comment is epic

  • how much dose it cost wear can i get 1

  • these guys release like a system every year or every other year sheesh.

  • i guess i'll get this, i unlocked my psp but got rid of it a while ago and i should have kept it...

  • the game was laging was that the video or the system its self

  • reset nes and snes volume buttons together

    gbc: y

    gba volume keys

    gen: select

  • can this play doom and custom wads?

  • I' m pretty gealous of you... you have got WIZ, N-gage gba sp, but you' re videos are really cool 5/5

  • that pretty cool

  • lol the wiz

  • i wanted to get one but i heard that the roms are illegal (not that i care to much) but is that true

  • Lol I bet your not a fan of emulators because you have a console to play just about any game a man could dream of!!

    I'm on the edge between the dingoo and the wiz. YOU ROCK GAMERSTER81!!!!!!

  • @Jgump20 i bought the dingoo, it did play the games fine but trust me it broke on me just over a week in the shoulder button broke during normal use i opened up the dingoo to see if i could fix it, inside of the dingoo looks pretty messy the motherboard has solder that looks like it was done by hand, i wasnt impressed so i sent it back got a full refund glad i did! the dingoo is dodge i would recommend the wiz even though i dont own one, the dingoo cant be trusted with quality!

  • if you dont have a computer to plug it into you can plug it into the wii or a xbox 360

  • why cant sony,nintendo,or microsoft come up with something like this?

  • @jayshoyne Because they offer closed platforms. Systems like the GP2X, The Wiz, Caanoo, Dingo, and more recently the Openpandora offer a fully open platform that used Linux and freely allow modders access to source code.

    Sony had allowed Linux to be installed on the PS3 - until a recent mandatory FW update that removed all BC of PS2 games.

    There is no money, and is viewed as a threat to their profits if they were to allow their hardware to be as open sourced as these handhelds.

  • Awesome! I just ordered one about 10 minutes ago!

  • sum1 is selling me dis fo 100 do u think its worth it? 100 buks!!!!

  • this thing looks cheap

  • He has a great taste in music

  • The buttons take way too long to react if you touch them.

  • Sir you're the best I watch your video on the fc 16 go and knowing that I can play my NES games again bring me great happiness :D.

  • hombre, me la venderias por favor. nose donde consegirla...

  • soon its gonna get noticed then they will have to stop luckily it hasn't happend yet but when it does get ready to fight for it back and if the Pandora has touch screen and all that do you really need that for a counsel made to play older games?

  • games fucking games I wanta see the operating system and movie capabilities. Does it reallly do that or people just dont make youtube videos showing it.

  • Does It Have A Web Browser

  • Dude, I love your videos, but please don't crinkle plastic so close to the microphone! :)

  • In the snes emulator, hit the up and down volume buttons at the same time to go to the emu menu

  • loudest packaging award goes to...

  • Is it just me, or was I able to see your address VERY clearly in the beginning?

  • Can you rename the files? Like instead of it saying PocketSNES can you make it Super Nintendo while the SD card is plugged into the computer?

  • dingoo sucks the a320 has half the ram of the wiz, which means all the emulators are slower etc. it doesnt support flash files over flash player 6 and doesnt even have an interface ie. you cant even watch a video if you have to press a start button or any swf games! and it doesnt have touch screen support. and if anyone wants to bring up the a330 go ahead cus that piece of shit has had more problems than Fidel Castro!

  • @jered91 get a wiz

  • I only found it on E-Bay for 145-195 $... Is it worth that much XD? Is it easy to get free stuff on it? The buttons look like the D-PAD... Is it hard to use them? Wireless internet? PS1 emulator?

  • Is this hand held system competing with the psp 3? I have a psp model 1 and i looked @ the psp flat known as modle 2 which the only thing you could do is hook it up to your t.v.. Well chat you later man. Good stuff bro.

  • can I play classics like burgertime, amidar, etc?

  • @R0B0TRON yes

  • just wondering, why do you think any other companies making these handheld device while there are sony and nintendo that dominates the market

    emulators? those are old school games

  • I would take this over any DSi

  • *slap to the face* shoulda boughta dingoo haha

  • cough cough dingo is better cough cough it has almost every game built in cough cough.

  • Now I'm convinced more then ever this thing is the crappiest thing ever made its made so cheaply and has the worse control on it of any portable console ever made.

    Gp2x Really fucked up this time the earlier versions were 100 times better than this I just recently had a chance to play with one and my findings on were terrible I don't think its going to last a year before the controls break.

  • @dj2bklyn Hey, just be aware that most PSP's break in a week

  • what a moron hes not a game emulator person then why did you buy the device dumbass its made for game emulators duh

  • Why is it we have to be impressed by someone opening a device from the mail geees like we need to see that it was in a package from the mail god are we that stupid that we never saw or did this ourselves gees just do the review already man that's annoying!

  • @dj2bklyn Thanks Buzzkillington

  • This thing costs more then my psp and the PSP can do the emulators to. Anytime i get a new game i put the rom on my PSP. Plus i can play ps1 and PSP games on it. Looks cool for someone who might have trouble hacking there psp though.

  • More game consoles in the Gaming Market

  • I want one of these where can I get one? do they make a good MP3 player?

  • a portable console to run emulators?!!!

    it is like the PXP... the clone of psp.

  • this is awesome...its like a ds and a bricked psp combined...love it

  • this is just a knock off od the DSI

  • sure, but its waaaay better xD

    cuz the games are free (which doesnt mean theyre worse than the ds-games) and if u know how to do it u can even programm ur ow games :D

    is this possible with the DSi ??? i dont think so...

  • well not everyone is a genious, if you look at my channel you see that i'm still 14 :D and yeah free, because they dont have as good of gameplay as the DS not to mention the DS came out first and if not the ds then Nintendo :D

  • mhhh, i cant program games but i wanted to say thats its possible (btw im 15 :P).

    i think the games are better cuz they are older games (which u can play on the WIZ with emulators).

    i admit they often have worse graphics, simpler gameplay than the DS games, but hey:

    a funny game doesnt have to be complicated !

    its all about having fun, and im sure u can have the very same thing with old (SNES-, NES-, GBA-, GB-, PSX-....)games too.

    greetz from germany

    qwonks

    (i guess its a DSL-knockoff, not DSI)

  • hmm, your right, any games can be fun XD but O: how in the world can you program games?

  • How can you possibly call this a dsi knock off? It doesn't have 2 screens, looks nothing like a DSI, is an open system (as opposed to the DSI only runs officially licensed nintendo software), has a MUCH faster processor, much more ram, runs linux, plays audio and video in tons of different formats, runs emulators...

  • i guess just because of the touchscreen.....

  • where doy uo get the snes emulators and all that ?

  • cheaper to get a used ds and an r4. does same stuff. i cant wait for the pandora

  • @spaceeskimo11t

    lol pandora is turning into vaporware, the amount of times it was SUPPOSED to come out but again delayed. I was going to go with the pre-order 6 months ago cause it was coming out in sept, then nov, then it never came and I decided not to

  • whats pandora

  • @thechosenalien

    google open pandora

  • hardly...all the emulators for the ds are very slow

  • @16BitJunkie i have them all and none are really slow at all,

  • i've played around with most of them...anything in the 8-bit era runs smooth...but the snes was a nightmare...most of the time a layer or two would be missing...

  • very true actually

  • Errr, do you have the new DS or something? Because mine run slow.

  • @dkrocks i have the phat, nes emulation is perfect, the snes emulation isnt slow but the compatabilty is limited and some games sprites are missing, but alot of games are playable. genesis emulation is good, cept for sound, and most other sega stuff runs very good. gameboy emulation is flawless.

  • 67MHz and 33MHz CPUs on the DS, though. Pretty lame.

  • that is pointless don't you need 2 screens just buy a Ds this is for old school games lol

  • @22therealone bullshit ds has a really bad graphics card and a weak 3d accelerator. they didnt even put enough technology in it to make a mist-like area, or any kind of semi transparent item

  • @22therealone wtf your a fagot it is an emulator console, only menus and some homebrew games use the touch screen but it still works out

  • @stickeater12 you sound butthurt shut the fuck up and chill you homosexual

  • @22therealone but you' re ignore that wiz can emulate psx LOL

  • I HAVE THE WIZ!!! IT OWNS!!!!! EVERY GAME CONSOLE I GREW UP WITH AND TONS MORE ALL ON THIS LITTLE TINY HANDHELD!!

    With a whole bunch of movies to watch as well! The Wiz is the best!!

  • Waitaminute, you have to power it to your PC to turn it on?

  • eh, everytime i see this or the Dingoo i wonder why people dont pick up and mod a psp slim 2000 instead almost the same price, better emulators, and better build quality and possibly battery life because my modded psp lasts up to 8 hours on battery if i dont have the brightness all the way up and i made my own pandora battery

  • I think I may get this over the Dingoo, but I'm not sure... does anyone have advice?

  • Im not sure either I feel like the wiz would be more reliable because the dingoo sounds like it has too many problems and the models arent the same anymore they are being produced using cheaper parts than the original which makes them freeze more and stuff. This is a but more expensive but it looks like it will last me much longer than a dingoo

  • yeah tbh dingoos are not that good, on mine the buttons after about a couple of weeks went bad (jams not responding on time) and the D pad is not good at all way to slippery

  • @Sypran i just ordered a wiz i think i will be much happier with it than a dingoo

  • yeah I re picked up my dingoo and man is it worn, it more worn out then my 9 year old GBA some kid I know has a wiz and you wil most likely like it a lot more, the buttons are better quality and the emulation is a LOT better (and also I dont think the screen scratches as easily) and there is overall more systems in it.
