By the time it comes out it will be shit.

no
why not remove those nipples and give us a decent keyboard instead?

Fuck off, shill

That's pretty optimistic. I'm willing to bet that it never comes out.
>>53520458
put linux on it obv
>>53520545
It's made for gaming, removing the analog sticks would be a pretty retarded idea
>>53520597

What the fuck do you need those for it to be for gaming
>>53520398
Stop shilling this trash
>>53520582
GPD is an established company. They pretty much admitted they could have done it without crowdfunding at all, but why not let customers cough up capital?

for that price, just get a cheap telecast x98.
It's like $100 less
>>53520650
It's not for muh brand new triple A titles dipshit
>>53520645
>GPD is an established company
That I've never heard of. But if /g/ says so, it must be a safe bet. Definitely not a shill this time!
the whole device looks like one compromise after another.
Just get a cheap android/windows tablet and use a ps3/360 controller.
Cheaper AND better than this single-use crap.
>>53520699
I'm sure you've heard of every established company on the planet
>>53520713
Let's see you put a tablet along with PS3 controller in your pocket
>>53520715
So who are these GPD, what are they established doing?
When where they established?
What other products did they have?
Were they well received by the market?
Never heard of this GPD beofre and sounds like a cheap fly-by-nighter, it's on you to provide evidence they aren't since you want me to buy one.
>>53520699
They make cheap but decent handhelds that look an awful lot like a PSP or 3DS. I'm fine with Kikestarter and friends threads being banned though desu

There's another cherry trail atom that has four more EUs at the same frequency that can barely run TF2 at 720p on lowest settings. Good luck running anything apart from indie titles
>>53520398
/g/ is not your personal tech support, faggot.
Read the sticky next time.
>>53520726
>6000mah battery
>analog sticks, various extra buttons, keyboard
>implying this thing weighs less than 900g.
The site might state '300g' but a 6000mah liPo battery is minimum 220grams (just as a pouch cell alone) so the site is clearly lying about specs.
Also it mentions 4GB of RAM and Free Windows due to being under 10.1", except that only counts for devices with 2GB or less RAM.
More lies.
This is straight up a fly-by-night scam.
>>53520770
Yeah because videogames didn't exist until a few years ago
Oh wait
Honest question, if this is an established company, why are they doing an indiegogo campaign?
Why don't they just release the product like a normal established company?
>>53520787
>Also it mentions 4GB of RAM and Free Windows due to being under 10.1", except that only counts for devices with 2GB or less RAM.
There are other Chink tablets doing the same thing. I think Microsoft just let it slide, as Intel did with the guys using 4gb of ram with Atoms that were intended for 2.
>>53520789
If you want to play games that are more than a decade old on a portable device then sure this is the product for you. I just don't see a lot of people buying it as a gaming device.
>>53520787
>This is straight up a fly-by-night scam.
As is every other crowd funded campaign. When is /g/ going to pull it's collective head out of it's ass?
>>53520806
it's more endearing. also, the campain can literally be the extent of their marketing.
>>53520871
No it isn't, it's just scamming.
Especially choosing indiegogo, the one where if the campaign doesn't reach it's goal the owner can just cancel it without refunding a cent...
This is 100% scam terrirtory.
>>53520853
CI40 was crowdfunded.
>>53520806
Because they can. Compared to some of the absolutely massive guys like GE or Sony doing it this is pretty harmless. This would never in a million years sell for $500 though.
>backing an indiegogo
it's like kickstarter but scammier
the overwhelming majority of indiegogo hardware kickstarters never ship a physical product
are you stupid? then sure, go ahead

This thing was pure shit
>>53520671
Then what's the point?
>>53521934
Mount and blade
Warcraft
All handheld console emulated games
All pre 2008 games on high graphics (yes atom GPUs are that good)
But that's just playing games imagine installing a Linux distribution on it
>>53520806
free money & exposure
>>53520787
That's probably because they're only planning so far.
Besides - the price is really bad. Cheap tablet SoC and screen, like those $100 tablets, plus analog sticks and a keyboard... $300 (Half a year in advance mind you) is pretty overpriced but the final $500 price is just terrible.
>>53522035
>All pre 2008 games on high graphics (yes atom GPUs are that good)
Yeah no, it should do stuff like oblivion or cod4 at low-med, and stuff like crysis at minimum, but this is thanks to the 720p resolution as well.
>>53520398
It's called a Bluetooth keyboard for your phone costs around $20 why would you get this
>>53520579
loooooool
>>53521803
Is that the Pandora? I wanted one of those
>>53520398

Maybe if they packed in a Core M processor
Maybe if they dropped in some Iris Pro graphics
Maybe if they gave it more capability than playing a 12 year old game at all-low settings at <720p at 40-50fps.
If they gave it any real power, it'd be a great buy. But, sadly, they cheaped out and they're likely just rebranding a fucking whitegood anyway.
>>53520597
You might as well buy a PSP or Vita if you just want portable gaymen. They do that ten times better and both support the use of emulators.
>>53520398
I don't see why everyone is soo pissed, it looks awesome.
>indiegogo
Nope.
>>53522734
I doubt it will play oblivion even with 720p
>>53523244
Can they do perfect & enhanced DS, ps1 and n64 emulation?
Also, stuff like oblivion and morrowind is lightyears ahead of psp games in gameplay.
>>53520761
They're raughing at you before you even open the box.

Yeah, because two shit Bethesda games make up for the entire PSP library.
- Disgaea 1 and 2
- Persona 3 FES
- Lumines
- Loco Roco
- Katamari, FUCKING KATAMARI
- Portable Ops
- Two God of War games
People used to make fun of the PSP for not having shit to play. Sony handhelds seem to really shine on their way out the door for some fucking reason.
>>53522035

Look at this fag and laugh.

What happens when you put this processor in a tiny box with no fans or ventilation? It overheats just trying to play games on low settings. It actually loses to a last generation bay trail atom. Anyone buying this to play games is a certified retard.
>>53523592
Also keep in mind this overheating POS is $100. The overheating POS in the OP is $300-$500 and may not even exist.
>>53523567
>Sony handhelds
the psp only, I can't understand how come there's people that still buys the vita, also most of those games are just fucking ports.
>>53520398

k, kill yourself
>>53520398
>Intel Atom
>PC/Gaming console
Pick one
>>53523051
A core M is an extra $200+ for marginal benefit that in a device this size will be lost to throttling
>>53523592
Yeah even if this can play your favorite game on low, it won't for long. This will likely be acceptable for 2D games and emulation. An undervolt might help a bit.
I'm still getting one.
>>53520398

good luck with that.
i'd buy one

Oh man, you're fucking hilarious dude, you know that? If I couldn't get it running smoothly on a Haswell Celeron, what makes you think have have a chance with a fucking Atom?
You know what would have made you sound less like a complete retard? Using the thing for shit like remote play.

The funniest part is that you think it won't be terrible.
>>53524638
They could have put an x5-z8300 in there for cheaper and had a lot fewer performance/throttling issues. Not only that but the price is insane for what you get (You can buy a brand new 11.6" netbook for $100 less) This thing is being put together by dumbass chinks.
