GamePark Holdings GP2X Wiz is a gaming handheld launched in 2009. Powered by Pollux VR3520F (1-core, 533 MHz), 64 MB RAM. Features a 2.8" AMOLED Touchscreen display (320 x 240). 2000 mAh battery. Runs Linux.
Emulation comfortably covers the classics: NES, Master System, Game Boy, Mega Drive, PC Engine and Neo Geo Pocket. It also handles computers such as the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64 and MSX, plus ScummVM and MS-DOS. Most SNES games run at 60 FPS, but FX-chip and Mode 7 titles lag. Most 2D PlayStation games run fine, though not all at a full 60 FPS, while 3D games are too demanding.
The 2.8-inch AMOLED touchscreen offers QVGA 320 x 240 resolution, a 4:3 aspect ratio, 142.86 PPI and a 60 Hz refresh rate. The aspect ratio suits retro games naturally, and touch input helps in ScummVM and menus. The screen lens is plastic, and brightness is adjusted through the menu.
Controls include an upper-placed cross D-pad, four face buttons and L1/R1 shoulder buttons. There is no analog stick and no rumble. Dedicated Hold, Reset and volume +/- buttons are close at hand. The plastic body measures 121 x 61 x 18 mm and weighs just 136 g.
The 2000 mAh battery charges through a proprietary port. Connectivity includes USB Host, WiFi via adapter, AV out and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. Front-facing dual stereo speakers and a built-in microphone round out the features. Internal storage is 1 GB of NAND, expandable via SD card.
The device runs Linux, and modding is permitted, which fueled a rich scene of emulators and homebrew apps. It is now discontinued, so it is mainly found on the second-hand market.
Ideal for: collectors of classic handheld hardware, Linux homebrew enthusiasts and players who want 8/16-bit emulation in a compact, lightweight form.
