Probably the only handheld with a less visible screen than the GBA.

Should I pour some love onto those dodgy Chinese Android handhelds [JXD]

This is running on a Xperia ZL2 (maybe a Japanese only phone?) which is a pretty high spec phone with 3gb of ram! No idea how it will run on the latest JDX but it should be fine as the developer of Reicast says a dual core with 1gb of ram will be enough.
I also added Jet Set Radio (you need to get that) and the DS emulator which is pretty much 60fps on all games I've tried.

Only issue with the NGPC is how far handheld gaming has come since those days. Faselei!, though interesting in its own right, is a perfect example; it's a decent enough SRPG but there are stacks and stacks of those on the GBA and DS, some of which are very good. The DS even has Front Mission DS. Sonic has a similar issue.
Cardfighters Clash and Match of the Millennium are definitely worth getting, though, because despite the years since, they're still both the best games in their respective genres on handhelds. It seems hard to believe that fighter on a console more than 10 years old is better than the 3DS version of Street Fighter IV, but really, it is.
Clash, on the other hand, is simply unrivalled, which is bizarre when you think how many Yugioh and similar games have come and gone.

Someone is selling a JXD S7300C for 5000Y(?30) and I've asked to buy it.
I feel like I can't go wrong for that price as it's basically the S7300B but quad-core and Eurogamer said that one is quite decent. I'm worried about this supposed 61Hz refresh but can't find anything online about it.
[MENTION=9865]Colin[/MENTION]: thanks for the impressions! Do you notice any regular juddering when playing games? The older the better(which would be smooth, 60fps normally).
Also, does anyone know if the android can be updated? I'll try finding this stuff out for myself but thought I'd ask.

Funnily enough I sold mine, but just ordered another a couple of days ago due to working away from home again. Did consider another Vita, but not really enough on it I'd want to replay, so the emulation of the JXD made more sense.
I never noticed any juddering on any retro stuff I tried, and unlike most here it seems, I would have no clue how to discern if a game was running at 60fps or not?

Hilariously, I found out one of the bugs in the S7300C is that it sets itself to 60Hz if you resume from sleep. So maybe that's an idea
Originally posted by nakamura View PostI used the B model iirc and ran 16 bit titles really well although a slight sound delay on the SNES emulator. No issues with the frame rate that I could tell.
PS1 stuff ran pretty well too.

S7300B: Dual-core CPU, good support from modding community(custom ROMs, updated Android versions possible)
S7300C: Quad-core CPU, little-to-no support from modding community(I think JXD locked it down)

Makes sense.
I think the video trouble was with the 7300 so no wonder it was fine for you
The guy hasn't replied so if this falls through I'll just sit and wait. Would've been nice to get one for my UK trip as I'll be going there and back alone. Alternatively, I've got three months to muck about getting a dual shock 3 connected to my iPad and then I could just use that

These look interesting: http://www.geekbuying.com/item/GPD-X...ck-347650.html, especially given its "Fodable and portable design"
