Pandora running a PlayStation emulator
Groovee
Here's an exciting one to round out the day. The highly anticipated British-designed and built handheld games system Pandora is evidently still working its way inexorably toward us.
The design team have just released a video of their powerful device running a PlayStation emulator, and doing a damn sweet job of it.
The emu itself isn't even optimised for the Pandora, being an 'off-the-shelf' piece of Linux software. The sound is therefore a bit choppy, but the team are apparently working on refining it into a dedicated version.
It's still a great indication of just what this open-source beauty will be capable of, though. Check it out:
Spanner Spencer
Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
