The Super Retro Boy from Retro-Bit (it’s not on their site yet) is yet another reason that Nintendo should re-release the GBA. Retro Bit have done a brain fart and bundled the GBA hardware into an original Game Boy shell, whilst doing away with the shoulder buttons. The machine is lovely to look at, it’s obviously as …
Pretty much right on schedule, GPD have begun shipping their Windows 10 handhelds out. In true crowd funding style, many backers are still waiting for theirs to ship whilst others have simply bought one from a store and received it already. I feel your pain (I pre-ordered a Pandora back in 2008). Videos began cropping …
Last year this SteamOS powered handheld arrived on Kickstarter with a $900k goal and no working prototype. Unsurprisingly things didn’t go as planned and the campaign was pulled before the end. The team vowed that they would return after sourcing the majority of funds from private investors instead. Things went relatively quiet for a while, until …
It seems GPD are more or less on track according to the timeline they posted when the Indiegogo project went live. We’re now in June and GPD have at least one working prototype unit made. The video below was posted on Youku and Youtube today, and it shows a working prototype unit playing what I …
Yep, it’s happening. The Dragonbox Pyra has reached the next level and is now available to pre-order. Down payments are being taken at ED’s shop, with remainders to be paid when the unit is available to ship. The final pricing looks like this, with 330 EUR and 400 EUR being taken as down payments for …
Past experience of companies materialising out of nowhere and promising a machine that seems too good to be true should tell us this – Don’t get too excited about the handheld that PGSLabs have recently announced. If you think back to the $10 nD, the Panasonic Jungle or more recently the Smach Z then you’ll know …
It started in December 2015 as a bit of back and forth between GPD staff and the community of the Dingoonity boards – talk of the possibility in them building a Windows 10 handheld. Some (very) rough ideas were posted by the GPD team and discussion begun. 61 pages later and things have really begun to take shape. The project is …

Hands up who’s old enough to remember the ZX Spectrum? I am, just about. One of my friends had one in the late 80s or early 90s and I remember going to his to play Skool Daze on it. I tried to convince him to dig it out a few years ago but his …
Sort of… In all seriousness, I can’t imagine the amount of work it has taken to get to this stage, so kudos to them. It seems ED has been in Greece recently checking out the plant that are producing the cases. The molds are done, but they require tweaking to get a better finish than …
It must be nearly time, in the past couple of days JXD have uploaded a bunch of videos demoing their new flagship in action. For whatever reason, the videos are very GTA heavy, show casing San Andreas, Vice City, ChinaTown Wars and GTA3. There’s also a video of Half Life 2 for good measure. The cheapest …
