you can find SNES roms at sites like doperoms or romnation, along with NES, Genesis, etc. just look for the game with a (u) next to it, download, unzip, and place the file on your sd card. i made a new folder just for roms, open and play them with SNESoid Lite

While I would never do this to my phone, I think it's super cool that he managed to make it work and put some thought into what he was doing (like keeping the "1" key, etc.). That was fun to watch!

What is that facebook like widget with the picture and the box showing "compose" with the camera next to it?

But seriously, did you see him do the shoryuken like 10 times in a row? That would be IMPOSSIBLE with the touch screen controls. Even touch screen controls on a screen .3 inches bigger that the Epic.

Hopefully Game Gripper comes out with a model for our Epic so we wouldn't have to do this mod.

Gamegripper said they're working on the epic gamegripper now. They recently released the samsung moment version and said that the epic 4g version won't take them as long as it did for the moment

I hope so. I was going to buy one if they released it last year. I found out they made one now. but its too late. Im waiting for the epic when I can get it.
