[QUOTE="Taleweaver, post: 4979111, member: 237261"] I voted for the dingoo. PSP and DS easily fell off the list of candidates for obvious reasons. The remaining three are all open, so none get credits for that. So...I watched some youtube videos (never had one). And thought it would be a hard choice, as I would have thought that they play emulators much the same way and it would come all down to how to hold it. This wasn't exactly true... My first thought was that the Pandora would be an easy choice. As WiiCube mentions: with that size, a complete keyboard AND joysticks and buttons, it must be hell to actually use it for gaming. And why does that thing have two SD slots? But truth be told, if you take a step backward and don't see it as 'just' a gaming handheld, it's actually not that bad. It's sort of like a mini-netbook (a mini-mini laptop, in other words). And that you can apparently plug your gamecube controller in via USB is probably not that stupid (unless you plan on gaming in a public place :P ). The caanoo just looks slick. It looks much better in videos than on pictures, actually. I probably would have bought one of those over a PSP...if I didn't happen to have bought a used PSP from someone who didn't use it anymore. Still...I thought it was going to be a close call between this one and the Pandora... ...and then I saw a dingoo review. Yeah...no. Look...I understand that the low price point makes this a sort of gem to have (kind of like the raspberry pi is now), but c'mon. This thing screams "CHEAPPPP!!!" from every direction. And I think that if you look up Engrish in the dictionary, you'll see a picture of a dingoo. Are those even shoulderbuttons? To be fair: the handhelds aren't that ridiculously far apart this generation. That is to say: it's not an embarrassment to actually use these devices as some previous contesters. But it's pretty obvious those lower three just make sales because of emulators (and thus: illegal games). It's not like anyone bought a dingoo to play "愚蠢的電腦遊戲" (or a variant thereof). [/QUOTE]
