What worries me is that when the Wiz's battery goes isn't that it? Since I can't seem to find any way to play the console plugged in while the battery is that low. Is this the same on the Caanoo? The GP2x will be around for a long time with it's AA batteries.

Been awhile since I've been here. Just ran World Reborn to check and it works fine for me. I also play the GBA Elite port fine. What I found with homebrew, is that you must leave the .bins in .zip format or they will not work. Hope they work for you.

If it is out of warranty, you can try opening up the battery compartment and check to see if the terminals are connecting. This sounds a lot like what happened to friend of mine's handheld. We ended up fixing it by adding a piece of paper behind the lid to push the battery against the terminals...

Have you tried out Ultima 6 in the Amiga Emulator? Runs pretty quick but you have to overclock.

Thank you zx-81! Can't wait to try it out!

I just tried it out and works fine. I placed the alexkiddx2 folder in my Emulator folder and placed Sonic the Hedgehog.sms in the rom folder within the alexkidd2x folder and works perfectly. Try just recopying the folder back onto your Wiz perhaps. It says you can put the roms anywhere but try...

In UAE on the Wiz you need to manually save your game just like on a real Amiga. I find the best thing to do if you have a PC is to get UAE working on your computer. I outlined how to save in It Came From the Desert here. For any other game just make a blank adf and find out if it needs a...

A friend of mine once dropped her Blackberry from the same height and thought she had busted it. I messed with it a bit and it turned out that the drop had somehow loosened the battery terminals on the device. I fixed it by placing a folded piece of paper on the battery so that when the cover...

Good glad you got it working. Awesome emulator with good speed and decent compatibility. Some of my favorite games are Public Domain ports. Keep them in zip format if you want to try them. Thrust http://www.gbadev.org/demos.php?showinfo=247 Elite...

That's a good point, perhaps when you opened it in the Hex Editor it altered something?

I just checked my folder setup and the gba_bios.bin does go in the same folder as gpsp.gpe. I am unsure of where you placed your roms folder. I just put all my roms in the same folder as gba_bios.bin and gpsp.gpe. I'm unsure but the alternative might be to place them in a folder named rom in the...

The easiest way to facilitate saving on the Wiz is to download UAE for PC. You will need the kickrom and all. For It Came From The Desert go to the Floppies section of UAE and create a formatted disk by clicking Create Standard Disk. Name it DSAVE.adf. Copy it to your Wiz. When playing it on the...

Hi Chris, Just tried again and I have no problem loading up Dungeon Master. My guess is you can try grabbing a few versions of it. Most likely you have a bad .adf image and it is just a matter of finding a working one. Hope that helps.

Surprisingly the DS has a very playable Neo Geo Emulator called NeoDS. Not as good as the Wiz but very playable for most shooters and fighters.

Good idea! I decided to test Diablo and for some reason the start button doesn't work. I was so hoping that I could get a Diablo fix on the go.

It's funny that when buying items like this I usually wait a few years and buy old tech like I did with the Nintendo DS and the GBA before that. The Wiz was the first time I ever broke that rule of thumb. As much as I enjoy using it, now after reading this I see that it is just a matter of time...

Well crap. :) Makes me not want to purchase another console from GPH. Edit: Damn it, I just watched some videos of first impressions of the Cannoo and must admit that it looks great.

Is there a lot of evidence of mass OLED failure that leads you to believe that it will just degrade until unusable after a few years?

Plus, I just want to pipe in again, there is that the Pandora seems to be made with the user in mind instead of being made with the idea to be replaced in a year.

Most likely you made this thread to rile people up but... If I had the money, I would buy a Pandora. Nothing against Caanoo exactly,just right now it seems like too little of an upgrade from the Wiz. Perhaps I'm wrong but it just seems to me that as much as I love the Wiz, it didn't reach its...
