there is a thread in the news forum with over 300 posts on it - go over there to find out more.
 
looks a little odd... personally I like the GP32 design :)... Maybe they could have just added a bigger screen, better hardware, extra buttons and a Analouge stick thing to the current GP32 design :D

Also Looks strange having the volume where it is

Hmm... two processors... one dedicated to video...

How about making Mesa3D run on the video processor, so that you effectively have a 3D accelerator? Quake 2 shouldn't be out of the question...

That's one of the things I intend to look at, anyway. There's plenty to be excited about in this new console! :D
 
Has anyone seen any specs on this one yet?

I think I would need a 250MHz CPU and 32MB RAM minimum to get me back into the scene!
 
You must be psychic - those just happen to be the specs (Gamepark is putting the "safe" MHz cap at 200MHz, though) - and it's got dual CPUs this time around.

Also a 2d an 3d graphics accelerater???

Huh? they could make it BETTER? That seems improbable, if this IS the system it's already damn sweet! If it really can use all the stuff developed for the first system.... man it's very tempting to want to hop on a new system now.

It's been confirmed multiple times that this IS NOT backwards compatible. GP32 software WILL NOT work on the new console - it's completely different.

No backwards compatibility. That is probably the biggest mistake with this system. So be prepared to wait a few years to get what we already have now ;)

Ah sorry about that, my mistake, I've been away from the forums for a while so I had no idea it was already confirmed to not have it. Hell last time I remember hearing about a successor to the GP32 it didn't even have a concept sketch yet.
