Next Opendingux firmware v1.2 20180313

Steward-fu is making fast progress on the next highly anticipated release of his Opendingux firmware (v20180313). It will be released on the date shown in the firmware number 13/03/2018. I have posted a change log of what has been updated and will keep it updated when something new gets added the change log is below just to wet your taste buds untill the next release. A thing to note on all future update firmwares will be in the form of a update file and there is no need to open your device. But people starting from a fresh new device will still need to open the device just once to install the v1 firmware (in the downloads area) and after that just use the update files.

Latest Update

Currently, all of porting is complete, I am ready to pack them into a upgrade package for testing by myself. So, what is the major focus on this release ? Porting emulators/games as much as possible to RetroGame because I am afraid some sources might disapear soon.

And I also need to say it again: All of emulators/games are ported to RetroGame device will be split down to 3 periods: 1: porting and it is playable 2. bugfix or add new feature 3. optimize as possible as I can

Finally, the ETA for this release will be on 2018.03.13 Thanks.
