  We started gameduino support but never finished and probably never will.

  Bummer. The Gameduino is a little pricey anyway.

  
  

  the ESP8266 LCDs looks to be just as promising, yet a lot cheaper.

  Firmware can not support such display natively. We have only 8kb ram and limited speed:-)

  I think the key with the ESP8266 LCD and ESP8266 serial/wifi transceiver is that the graphics/app are stored on the ESP8266's flash and they run an app and comm with repetier over UART

  Is that the interface like Panel Due uses it using the json responses recently added by a user? Well that might work.

  Has anybody taken a closer look at the nextion touchscreen integration? For in dept info you can have a look at the Kimbra firmware: https://github.com/MKFirmware/MK4duo.
  Looks to be a relative simple way to include a touchscreen interface

  tried something and also got something running. but it will work as host , using g-codes only.

  Unfortunately Nextion Display sends some , for Firmware unknown commands back , didn´t find the time

  to Research.

  Regarding GD2, I´m working actually on a System based on the FDTI FT 812 , including 1284p Controller may be i´ll

  try to use this as Host instead of Nextion Display.

  But anyway... These things are quite pricey  and for shure not a future solution, as it´s much easier to use for example a Raspberry or Odroid with Touchscreen and Repetier Server as a working solution with support.
