This was always an impressive emulator - it was originally made for the Open Pandora (an ARM-based mini-computer not much bigger than a DS). It's always been free for that - it's just, you know, you'd have to own an Open Pandora (I do!)

Also free for Raspberry Pi and runs really well on it.

Do you happen to know if there are packages or downloads for it. I was looking to archive it

Damn that machine seems awesome. and its successor Pyra seems petty damn cool too

Yeah it was pretty nifty in lots of ways. Loads of emulators, of course, and doing stuff like compiling apps directly on the device itself was neat.

Frustrating in lots of other ways too, though. I don't think the Pyra ever really got off the ground, unfortunately.

Ahh fair enough. I guess that's all totally expected with homebrew hardware
