Late adoption

I have been away for a while but am now returning to the Mode 7 fold once I’ve devoured the exciting administrative tasks which rest on my plate this afternoon.

Excitement is certainly mounting over here as I’m about to get hold of Ian’s hand-me-down DS Fat. With respect to technology, I’m an incredible cheapskate, venturing to shell out only when absolutely necessary, or hopefully not at all. I always think about the games I haven’t played on systems I actually own (even if that’s, for example, the Master System) when I’m in a position to buy a new console and that puts me off. Anyway, the DS has such an amazing library it will be satisfying to…fill out my form, get my little card and browse. We seriously need some kind of metaphor amnesty around here.

Oh, also we Officially Love the GP2x. Linux, on a handheld, all the emulation you want. Crazy homebrew. Brilliant. I’m currently on the waiting list for a review unit so hopefully I’ll get the chance to mess around with one soon and I will no doubt report back.

UPDATE:  I’ve just spotted that you can now plug in external peripherals to your GP2x via USB.  With its TV out, it’s now a fully-functional home entertainment system.  Better and better.
