Game Park 32 FLU Review

Unless you're not a gamer, you already know about the Gameboy Advance, and it's stylish new variant, the GBA SP. However, unless you're a hardcore fan of portable systems, you may not have heard much about the GP32. It's a portable system from the South Korean company Game Park, and currently is only sold in South Korea. Fortunately it can be imported, and there are English versions which include an English language BIOS and manual.

The GP32 is easily the most powerful portable game system currently available (note this review was written in May 2003), with an ARM9 CPU safely clockable to 133Mhz, 8Megabytes RAM and the ability to read/write SMC's in capacities up to 128Megabytes! Unlike the GBA, the GP32 has no extra hardware for processing sprites, backgrounds or audio. Everything is handled via software. Nevertheless, the system is still powerful enough to yield some amazing results, and easily outclasses the GBA (which has a 16Mhz ARM7 CPU) for emulation purposes.
