The remote
10390347_779101472123828_2679596159499856627_n.jpg

the mouse cursor is a bit slow then goes bloody fast
4 USB slots,
A TF(bloody Chinese, its Mirco SD) card slot
Ethernet port
HDMI out
Composite cable (untested), could be handy for streaming


Form factor is smaller and lighter than a PC Engine


Day one testing, after a slow start I got it going and did a mass install
Apps wise, its Android,
Tested with
360 pad, works as it does on PC, could do with reconfiguring on some things, a nice/annoying touch is the big round button is a home button,
Generic USB keyboard, works perfectly
USB mouse (Smart price), again works perfectly.
USB memory stick, same
Apparently the camera can be used on some games, cant stand to play games right now


What I ran
After burner climax, runs a bit choopy, no touch screen, also no controller option, WHY!!!
Sonic Dash, Touch screen only
Super Hexagon, perfect, plays great on a pad
Crazy Taxi, touch screen game
Walking dead, perfect, uses pad or mouse
PSP emulator, my PC runs this very badly, on this box? Metal slug XX runs perfect, Paroduis collection also runs great, Prinny 2 gets a bit skippy with the music, but is playable
Retroarch, urgh, this is not a good emulator
A mame emulator (will get the name), ran Wrestlefest, Alein vs Predator and Street fighter 2 perfectly
Chrome for streaming, this was runing a bit pap, wired internet seems slow on it
Video, VLC had trouble runing this weeks Dragonball kai at 720p, game Center CX ran perfectly, will try a few players




To do
Test more video players
Test more games (Sonic racing transformed is downloading)
Test these programs that let us use a pad for touch screen stuff
Test the camera
Test a pad adaptor (joysticks)


Any things you want me to try on it let me know
