NanoPi NEO

This could be interesting for some of you.
The NanoPi NEO for 8$/10$
If it is too thick, one could desolder the USB and Ethernet ports.

That looks really good, it's such a shame that it's a 'headless' board (it has no composite, or HDMI out, even through the CPU supports it!)

This board for $11 looks like it's the same, but with HDMI http://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?ro ... uct_id=109 which looks interesting! Has anyone tried one of the 'AllWinner' type chips? What's the performance like?

EDIT: Actually this one looks really good.. might even buy one see how it goes! http://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?ro ... duct_id=96

Do any of these work with the OS images for the Pi? like Retropi?
Chat with me and other members On Discord

Don't contact me about obtaining my board files (as you will not get them). If my Boards or PCB Kits are sold out, they will be restocked as soon as I can get them and there is demand for them. You can join the mailing list on my Website to be notified when they are available.

Interested in this as well. 1.4GHz could be game-changing for N64 Emulation!

Interesting! Did not hear about these before. The $23 one looks nice, quad core, 1 GB ram standard. Seems to have the Cortex-A9 chip as a CPU which is what the iPhone 4S used.
And the size seems to be perfect for a gameboy, thin enough to fit in the cartridge slot and probably just short enough (10 mm shorter than the raspberry pi 2/3) to fit without modifying the battery door case.

It is using the same Hardware as the Orange Pi PC, so i guess the RetrOrangePi Images should work.

A question about RetrOrangePi, does it run good on the orange pi board
Did you test the most requested emulators? such genesis, snes, mame, gba ect

Should run pretty fast as it doesn't have to generate any graphics :D

I notice they have a cheap, pretty high res screen on their site. http://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?ro ... duct_id=97 1024x600 and even give a full spec sheet on the LCD itself http://www.mediafire.com/download/j7iys ... NA2-V1.pdf It's a little large, but would be interesting if we could get it working via the gpio headers like Kite did with the 320x240 screen.
