GamePark was planning on releasing three models of the XGP; the high-end XGP, the middle-range XGP mini, and the low-end XGP Kids.
XGP The XGP system was to focus on
downloadable commercial games, as well as on free
homebrew content. The ability to use
Linux on was officially announced, as well as
Windows CE and

These differences would prevent the console from being backwards compatible with the GP32, although GP32 software could be reprogrammed to work on the XGP Kids. The device was intended to be relatively inexpensive and to give a chance to those who missed out on the GP32's limited production run to get something very much like a
BLU+. The XGP Kids, like the XGP Mini, will have a smaller screen (at only 65k colors, 4:3. •
