NES Emulator

**Rob** · 04-12-2008, 11:53 AM

If a Sidekick can do it... I mean it isn't cutting edge or anything but everyone loves old school NES games, right?

How long before we get one of these bad boys onto Android. Piece of cake?

My friend missed the bus yesterday and we played a PINBALL machine for 1 hour waiting for the next one. I've never had so much fun playing pinball.

There IS such a thing as OVERdoing it. While I love the complexities of the newer systems including the amazing graphics, there is something to be said for the head to head combat and button mashing intensity that the original consoles provide.

BTW, Tecmo Bowl rocks... so did Tecmo Baseball

irishgandalf · 09-15-2008, 10:17 AM

i agree that's y i've a snes, N64, dreamcast/genesis and a gameboy emulator with games

biohazard53188 · 10-22-2008, 02:00 PM

I would like to see an snes and sega emulator in the future.

Maximosis · 10-22-2008, 04:03 PM

We are all excited and for a good reason, I am sure in a few months all of this will become availiable.

Are there no Devs hanging around on this forum ?
C'mon guys *girls*, let us know what are your plans.

vNES looks like the best candidate for porting to Android but it has heavy use of libraries that are not available on Android. Expect a bit of a wait before anybody ports one over.

HTC · 10-25-2008, 09:16 PM

yea patience my friends.. it will be here soon enough.

PsychoChild · 10-26-2008, 10:32 AM

i hope they use the same .nes files cause I actually have them all on my memory card already because I used to play it on my tmo dash

ditto.

SNES Emulator will be nifty but weird on a small platform on the G1. It might take up too much space.

SirFenwick · 10-30-2008, 06:54 PM

GameBoy Emulator is on the Market. Its a start, so hopefully we'll see more of this.

And for some reason it says NES on the thread title... O_o

phillipxenxciel · 10-30-2008, 07:06 PM

not perfect now but its a good start

phillipxenxciel · 10-30-2008, 07:12 PM

i used to have it in my iphone but its not very playable because of no hardware key, it would be perfect for G1 with it hardware keyboard

Manacit · 10-30-2008, 10:12 PM

It's a great start, this is one of those apps I was really looking forward to

Did you try any of the ROMS, they seem awfully slow. Agonizing...I think it might be unplayable. What do you think?

Cryptic79 · 10-31-2008, 09:02 AM

I downloaded it. I could even get the "buttons" to respond well enough. I'm about to delete.

It sucks, so yeah. Its not really worth it at the moment but its some what of a start. So hopefully we'll see more of these soon.

Agreed. The GameBoy emulator needs some work, it'd be amazing if it didn't lag so much. I love my old Nintendo games

theres a nes emulator on the market now
looks pretty similar to the sidekick one posted above
search the market for nes. think its called nesemu
its free too!

Ageless Stranger · 03-14-2009, 11:23 AM

The only emulator I crave is a zx spectrum one. The original machine was only 8 bit, 1mhz clock speed and 16/48k RAM. Pale in comparison to the G1 specification, yet the only spectrum emulators available are severely slow. If only we had low level driver access then our dreams will blend in with reality, either that or someone will find a way of using Java VM over davlik

McDeezy · 03-23-2009, 11:23 AM

Anyone who has used a sidekick will tell you that picture is photoshopped. Notice the black border on the right side of the game and no on the left. The white border on the sub menu. No score in the top of the game? So fake

That was the greatest thing I've seen all day! Sadly though, the second video has been removed

Glad you liked it. I know I did.

Google it. Not trying to be a dick, don't know the forum rules here, but most forums don't like it if you advertise or tell people where to find torrets/roms/whathaveyou, since you could be getting them illegally. But seriously, just google it, the answers are right there.

Oh and I paid for the SNESoid app, works great so far. Zero complaints.

cchalek · 12-20-2009, 11:37 AM

So I downloaded Nesoid and am having trouble getting any rom on there. I have tried downloading straight to the phone, but keep getting the message that my phone doesn't support that type of file, then tried downloading to my comp, unzipping and sticking it on the SD card, everytime I try to load the .nes file, it says "Load rom failed. Please try another rom." I don't know what else to do, really don't want to uninstall this program. Does anyone have any ideas, am I missing a step or something? Have tried a number of roms, all with the same result...

dfrank02 · 12-20-2009, 11:53 AM

Ok so I got the emulator figured out a while back now and I didn't see you mention the download crutch. So if u don't have that download it. Then try thr roms again. The crutch allows ur phone to download any type of files.
