If there''s a SEGA GameGear, Nintendo GameBoy, SONY PlayStation Portable, BANDAI WonderSwan, Atari Lynx, SNK NeoGeo Pocket (thanks, someboddy), etc...I''ve been wondering...What company does Pandora come under?

EDIT:

Today, I showed a bunch of Pandora vids to my 10 year old nephew...He then asked me which company is making Pandora.

I paused for about 10 seconds (long eh?)...then I finally replied with, "OpenPandora".

The End. cool.gif

Wait, what do you mean? There is no company, just Craig and the other devs.

The closest thing to a big corporate entity connected to Pandora is Texas Instruments, since Pandora is TI OMAP based and has been described as a TI "pet project."

In a way, Pandora is like a return to the "good old days" (AKA late 70's - early 80's) when home computers and videogames were being invented & pioneered by American and British companies. There was no Sony, Sega or Nintendo making computers or games back then, instead we had Apple, Atari, Commodore, Sinclair, TI (yep, TI had a home computer back then, albeit not too successful) etc. How things have changed!

NEOGEO is a name of a console(arcade?), not a company. You should fix it to "SNK NEOGEO Pocket"

Oops, my bad. Sorry.

Only so much as the community that was centered around the GP2X will move to be centered around the Pandora. GPH, the company which made the GP2X, is not involved in the Pandora project in any way.

It's less of a company and more of an independent splinter group. How about the United Peoples Liberation Pandora, or something similarly menacing.

I dislike the idea of buying brand name just to show off. But what you could do is buy some kind of adhesive printing sheets, and then google for the samsung logo, print it and stick it on the console.

Why does everything have to have some big corporate 'brand' these days?

Pandora is too cool for those shackles.....

I prefer "Open Pandora", since if you have it in your hand you've already opened the box, thus unleashed stuff upon the world. But there's nothing wrong with plain "Pandora".
