NES Emulator for iPhone Emerges

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the from-the-depths-of-the-lake dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The first emulator for iPhone, iPhoneNES has been released. It run very slow, and has no sound, but hacker NerveGas has managed to modify the source to release an optimized version that is playable. " My favorite bit is that your controller is a clickable picture of the NES controller. Not exactly the ideal UI but still an amazing accomplishment.

    there's both more iPhones on the market (due to popularity)
    Ha. Hardly. There are somewhere on the order of about 20M PSPs on the market, worldwide. The iPhone has been out just under a month and a half, and only in the US. Do you mean to tell me that in its first month of sales, 13 million people, or approximately 4% of the entire US population, bought one?

    I strongly doubt that many iPhones even exist.
