What about the oldskool Casio E-100 and E-105 PSPCs?

There is a GAPI for these devices already, and apparently its pretty easy to get it to comile and work.

These devices have 133Mhz MIPS and can be oc'ed to 168... they basically have the exact same hardware as the E-115 with 16MB and 32MB ram respectively. Only difference is the OS.

Also, what about the Ipaq grey scale 31xx devices?

And will there be an x86 version? That would be cool, especially for the chaps that cant afford a PPC (or PSPC, HPC, epoc, etc) and already have a computer. It would also be nice to swap the saved games back and forth, and take it with you. And when network support is implemented, I could also play against my friends without a PPC! :)

just some suggestions... ermh, questions ;)

Oh. Can I help with the 720 port :). By the time your ready to start, I should already own a registered version of snalls. Plus, I consider myself on of the best 720 programmers in the field. Also, for snails, I will help for free. :D

Okay guys, I got my dirty hands on a HP 720 now.
I'll try to fix it up in no time :-)
Rob, I'll mail you if I get lost and need some help. Thanks for the offer.

Um, I have a Smoozeblatz Incinerator 8945 Toaster Oven (w/optional high velocity toast ejector). Just wondering if we'll be seeing a port to the PC sometime soon.

Don't forget the microwave port. I would love to play a quick game of snails while making some popcorn.

Will the iPornada be supported? I saw erotic piece of hardware, and was wondering.

Oh wait, you said exotic. Never mind then.

ok - my real name is adam (but bobs my pretend real name ok?

Postby bob » Jan 29, 2002 @ 7:52pm

hello again!!!
ummmmmmmmmmmm, the 720 and the 690 are different. they have different processors and different version of ce. 720 is far more advanced so shuld be easier to adapt the game for. i reckon someone shuld develop a piece of software which adapts other software so that it is compatable with other devices. i dont know much about programming, but it cant be that hard (but probably quite hard) and it would be really usefull to people. It sounds like a good idea to me anyways!!!
adam - i mean bob

Can you make snails compatible for the E-100 and 105? Like what Jaybot-X said, they have the same performance as the E-115 but different OS. If you can make the Gamebox and other of your softwares compatible for both the E-100 and 105, then i don't really see the problem on making snails E-100 and E-105 compatible.

P.S : I'm the guy who e-mailed you Peter about the E-105 on snails

new devices

Postby Yorkie » Feb 8, 2002 @ 11:44pm

How about the Aero 8000 notebook (HPC PRO)
It has an SH4 cpu with 16m ram and an 800x600 screen


Would love to see it on my device

16MB RAM is a little bit no? Running the game would need half the device to be empty, and with Snails installed you'd have 6mb or so at most for other data. Don't know that device, so addon storage would of course help.
