warcraft 1 and 2 as ported to gp2x, probally will run on dingoo
about abuse, i think it's make no sense to port a game that uses both keys and mouse to play

valentin - you can't port a game with no source code - so no x-com :(

That would be my number one choice if that were possible - of course if there is an amiga emulator that manages a1200 emulation then we could play x-com (but not terror from the deep)

Unlikely that dosbox will manage it either.

Warcraft could be ported as it has been reverse engineered (see wikipedia)...

These keys could easily be remapped! Strafe, Jump, and Duck are on the D-pad. Aiming gets changed to L and R (kind of in an arc motion). Fire and changing weapons to the buttons.

I don't know any programming, but I am pretty sure it can be done.

Warcraft1 is a no go, as the GP2X version is a staticly recompiled binary (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynarec), that means it uses arm asm (dingoo is mips).
Warcraft 2 is a port of wargus, and that could be actually possible to port.

Crime Fighter would be awesome:

It´s DOS... and freeware. But maybe DOSBox will be too much for the dingoo. We´ll see :geek:

@espontaneo

Sad to read that hhah =<

Any other game like terror from the deep? Q_Q

What about a RTS like Dune, C&C n so?

If anyone can find the sourcecode for free cnc then command and conquer is possible

Dune - again amiga/dosbox emulation - although I've been playing the megadrive version of dune on dingoo and it's pretty damn good.

Doesnt need to be A1200 spec/AGA or whatever, It runs perfectly fine on an A500.

I dont think it looked much different to the aga version. Maybe it was like Dungeon Master 2, which was sold as an A1200 game, but ran fine on my 3.1 A500 w/68040, didnt make any use of AGA at all....
