Super Mario?

Will it be possible to run super Mario 3 or an snes emulator at all would be killer. But from what I understand there is limited space internally and this may not be possible.

You can do both, but for Super Mario 3 you'd want an NES emulator, not SNES (unless you are playing Super Mario All-Stars).

Look for Nesoid and Snesoid in the marketplace (the regular versions cost money, but there are free "lite" versions).

Space isn't an issue. The emulator and ROM's are tiny.

Even for big games only binaries (which are tiny) need to be in memory. The space hog resources for the app can be on the SD card.

Super Mario Bros. 3 (スーパーマリオブラザーズ3) (also referred to as Super Mario 3 and SMB3) is a platform video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), and is the fifth game in the Super Mario series. The game was released in Japan in 1988, in the United States in 1990, and in Europe in 1991. Development was handled by Nintendo's Research & Development Team 4, led by Shigeru Miyamoto, who directed the game along with Takashi Tezuka.

The game centers on the quest of Mario and Luigi to save the rulers of seven kingdoms from Bowser, the series' antagonist. The two brothers must travel across eight worlds to restore order to the Mushroom World. It built on the gameplay of previous Mario games by introducing new power-ups that augment character abilities, and established conventions that were carried over to future games in the series.

Prior to its private consumer North American release, game play footage from Super Mario Bros. 3 appeared in the Universal Studios film The Wizard, which helped fuel the game's anticipation among fans. Upon its release, the game was commercially successful and has since become one of the best-selling video games in the industry. Super Mario Bros. 3 was well received by critics and has been included in numerous lists of top 100 video games. The success of the game resulted in an animated television show based on its elements, and in the game's re-release on later Nintendo consoles.

How would these games work with no physical keyboard (a la the Incredible)?

From what I understand (could be mistaken as I have a droid) but they have on screen buttons for phones with no keyboard.

Hey guys,

I know this is crazy, but it drives me nuts and I need to know... Hopefully someone here knows the answer even though this may not be the most appropriate forum to post my question.

Here it is. About 9 years ago, (I think in 2002), I worked in childrens clinic, and one day they bought a new game console for the waiting room. It was a brand new latest and greatest at the time. I think it might have been Super Mario, but I do not know. I do not know which game console that was either. The purpose of the game was to browse thru the castle, enter multiple rooms and find something (I do not remember the details now). The game set was a beautiful 3D graphics, not the 2D up/down stairs. There was no jumping or shooting, just browsing, looking around every corner, turning and moving things over to find something.

If any of you has a clue what I am talking about, please let me know.

Thanks

Sincerely,

Sophie
