D'oh, yeah that's right...not sure what I did there. Thanks, Cauterize!

Ok, I get it...It's called the Pokefami and is not out until December. Play-asi and some others are offering preorders it seems. Hopefully this unit will take the good things about the gameaxe and Game Theory Admiral and make the unit W'eve all really wanted. Of course, it still wojnt accept 72 pin games, but whatever...

no problem mate... looks good, thanx for finding out about it!
might get one when they are out!

It says it uses 3 Dry cells(I assume 3 AA batteries) and last for only 3 hours. Thats kinda poor battery life. I was thinking of getting the GBA Time machine myself http://www.lik-sang.com/info.php?cat...ducts_id=4326&

Yeah, but with this machine you should get native NES/FC resolution! Yay!

Well, maybe not....the resolution is probably slightly squished like most consoles made into portables...it is most noticeable in text. I kind of doubt the LCD is true to the NES reolution. It is probably just an LCD screen that accept composite input. However, if the resolution was exactly the same on the LCD as an NES is, that would indeed be pretty damn cool.

Lol, glad I could oblige.

So, did anyone/is anyone going to buy one of these things? I noticed that two have popped up on ebay now, going for the incredibly high price of $160. I am very interested in hearing how this one works compared to the Game Theory Admiral and Game Axe.

I can't read the description ...

Are there any links to the eBay auction or anything? I had heard about these too (probably from this very thread, months earlier) and had been interested in trying to get some more information on this beast, or atleast some real (as opposed to concept) pictures. Thanks.

It's not released yet. They seem to have some problems - the release was scheduled for 9.12.04 then went to "December" and now its "tba".
