MI2 handheld game
Is it a DS? Is it a PSP? No, it’s the MI2, the latest handheld gaming Planet Interactive. The company that previously required the successes Pocket Dream Console of these new next-gen shooter and adds touch and tilt controls allow.
The MI2 was originally developed by Conny, a Chinese company that excels in the creation of low-cost handhelds and game consoles. These systems often resemble those of big names like Nintendo and Sony, but are much more affordable. That was previously responsible for Conny Wii wannabe ‘Q3′, but also made it such colorful Pocket Dream Console (PDC). This PDC was by Planet Interactive imported and translated into Dutch – and proved a great success among gamers with the hand on the purse.
No originality prize
Natural Planet Interactive hopes to replicate this success at least with MI2. An original price, the company will not win. The design of the handheld is clearly borrowed from the PSP and the DSi. The action buttons and control button seems even Sony’s portable console directly to come. The form, touch screen and the shoulder buttons do now strongly Nintendo’s handheld thinking.
Furthermore, the device – which is exclusively sold at Intertoys – an integrated camera and microphone, like the DSi. And in this case you do that camera is not too much to expect: the resolution does not exceed 0.3 megapixels and no daylight you soon with a large pixel mush.
Extra games download
However, the MI2 a number of things well in its own way. Thus his cameras also capture movies at VGA resolution and screen functions as a digital photo frame if desired. And an opening for game tickets, you do not find: it is not. You do not, because the console is just like its predecessor, comes with one hundred pre-installed games.
There is a connection for a miniSD memory card. MI2 Although the 16GB of onboard memory, but who is there to purchase one hundred games are only about 256 left. With a memory card you might get gigabytes of photos, movies and music lost. Music? Yes, the MI2 is also an MP3 player. He might not handle directory structures and playlists, but with good headphones the sound quality is most impressive.
Some extra memory card is especially useful if you plan to purchase additional games. From January 2010 it is possible to download new games from the product page at Intertoys’s website. Prices will start at 2 million, let Rob know Moens Planet Interactive.
No good publicity
With its appearance, price and specifications, the device is clearly aimed at the younger gamer. The ingrained game catalog seems to underline this. Seasoned gamers do not have big titles à la Mario, Sonic and Call of Duty anticipated.
Most of the offerings consist of rip-offs of classics and famous games. Think of counterfeit versions of Streets of Rage, Hang-On, The Sims and Dance Dance Revolution. Even a Guitar Hero clone is not lacking.
The level of one hundred games is quite volatile. Some are almost unplayable due to lack of interpretation or a tilt steering too sensitive. One Sims rip-off in which the character at every turn its clogs, is downright frustrating for the younger gamer. And a car racing game where you rotate 90 degrees or not, is not a good advertisement for the built-in accelerometer.
Top of the wishlist
Yet turn out small, say three to twelve years really impressed with the versatile device. We have a trio letting their children go to MI2. The result: we had no problems with them for hours, and a test of the children put the device directly but also on the wish list for her twelfth birthday.
Although not all games equally well, there are apparently enough titles that do appeal to kids. The images are colorful and just a little sharper and more detailed than the PDC. The games are divided into different categories. There are touch-games you control with your stylus, “sensitive games’ that you control by tilting the device, and” classic games “which are the old fashioned way button controls and action buttons.
Makeup and math
In addition, various artistic titles that little ones can touch the throat to produce drawings and photographs to ruin, or where girls their own portrait – made with the built-in camera – dressed up with the necessary makeup.
Fun for the littlest ones are the special educational titles. These math and language games are fully translated into Dutch. Many other games have now been Dutch display texts. That translation is not always as tidy: if you can use the MI2 to ‘the movie’ go. Let the green book not only hear …
Complete
With all the different games and features, the handheld very complete and versatile, and the same can be said of its packaging. Thus we find a rechargeable battery in the box, so you do not need messing with loose batteries. Also a set of earphones, stylus, USB cable and charger are also present. There is even a video cable is present, the portable console that lets you instantly connect to your TV.
The only thing we missed was a small screwdriver for the battery cover. The battery is not installed before delivery, and order him to post you must remove a screw. Planet Interactive assumes, however, that people have lying around at home screwdriver.
Featherlight
By one single screw is the battery, however, firmly in place. And the rest of the device feels very solid and child pros. But he’s also a bit of a fatty, so you do not so easily in a pocket disappear. Offering high waist does not happy on extra pounds: the MI2 is lightweight and even after hours of play he will start to feel not too heavy.
Apart from a few slordigheidjes MI2 is a great Christmas and Christmas presents for children. The device offers so many games that little something for everyone in between. In addition, the MI2 even further as a video and still cameras, digital photo frame and MP3 player. For seasoned gamers and multimedia enthusiasts shoot the device on all fronts some shortage, but the youngest was a nice, affordable introduction to the world of digital entertainment.
