here's new GameGadget hardware imminent, a spokesperson for the company has told me.

The first of three hardware revisions, GameGadget version 1.1, will be released on 14th November for £39.99. 10 Mega Drive games will be thrown in.

Version 1.1 has a screen from a different supplier and altered battery circuitry - both were problems with the original GameGadget.

GameGadget Pocket, hardware revision number two, will be released in Q1 2013. It's a smaller version of the GameGadget. No price was mentioned.

GameGadget 2.0 will be released in Q2 2013 for £60. This will have upgraded internal components.

It's an eye-opening turn of events for a handheld business many thought dead in the water.

GameGadget, a £60 (once £100) handheld device with a download store, launched in April. It promised publishers a secure way to sell their old games for a quid or two; it a way to monetise what emulators have long offered for free.

Looks interesting, especially if it gets some retro games from the owners of the copyrights. Will have to keep an eye on this now.

And I wouldn't associate myself with one either..Zap, they are trying now to get into a Market of console home brew gaming scene they know very little about, unless emulation can be done as standard, no one with make much of an effort to support this or create new games for it.

android is now vastly catching up on these hand helds, especially with emulation etc..so this is really up against fears competition which given it's previous track record , they won't sucker the public or the die hard gamer again.
