Has any body tried running RPG2K3/MV on a windows tablet?

Thinking of getting a tablet with specs similar to this:

• Up to 1.83 GHz Quad-Core Intel Atom Z3735F Processor
  
• Windows 10 Home , 2GB DDR3 RAM

Will RPG Maker work or do I need a more expensive one?

Hmm. It might work. It also might end up a bit slow.


I can say from experience that working with RM on a tablet is hard, although finger-painting maps can be fun. It would probably be doable for just running the editor, but I'm thinking playtests would be very slow.


Note: I only have experience with MV. 2k3, I have no idea about the results. I could test it, but having Steam running is bound to be a negative performance impact, though.

Thanks for the reply. Steam is a pain. Maybe I should save up for a surface pro - they run on an i5 processor and have plenty of RAM.

I got my tablet from a brand called Onda. Definitely a solid tablet, and cheaper than common North American brands I've seen. There is one catch (maybe two, depending on your preferences), though. It comes with Windows 8.1 with Bing, and in order to set English on it, you need to upgrade Windows to Professional, or buy a new copy of Windows. Upgrading would probably also require access to someone that can read Chinese.

You can get an 9" onda dual boot windows 10/android in English over here in the UK for about £80 (about $104 US).


Would rather get a 10" screen though.


As for steam I got my RM2K3 real cheap in a steam sale so I could always buy a non steam version with a standard installer.
