The home button doesn't always work. That's on me, though. When I changed the battery (the replacement just won't fit all that comfortably seeing as that new battery is a little longer and thicker) I reckon I must have inadvertently caused some issue in there.
No biggie, though. In any case, the unit has touch-screen capabilities, so in most instances I'm able to exit to "home" via that touch-screen.
Is it worth it to get one of these vs. some new fangled JXD device? I have always followed these things, the GP2X Wiz, the Canoo, Pandora, GCW Zero etc.. but never got any of them. I'd like to one day when the perfect device comes out. The 3DS and Vita might be an option now too.
I think that the Vita has recently been fully opened up for homebrew and not just by exploiting the PSP side. I don't have one myself so I haven't looked into it in detail.
Me neither. I know the "new" 3DS is capable of running some homebrew now, but the screen never looked quite as good at the Vita's.. I might have to check it out though.
There was more that came with this, but I'm so goddamn excited for the game boy player.
Oh man, I wanted one of those back in the day, but I guess the selling point of watching DVDs as well has long passed. As much as loved the GC, I never even got a standard one. I have to rectify that one day. I worked with them every day for years when I was a tester, I guess that's why I didn't jump on it.
