Just read on Engadget that a Nintendo64 emulator has finally been released for Android!
Its called N64oid and is $5.99 on the market, but worth every penny. Still a little laggy with some games, but pretty good. Played Mario Kart64 with no issues, but will probably struggle with more CPU intensive games such as Goldeneye.
Market link: http://market.android.com/details?id=com.androidemu.n64
I just...downloaded it...thank you for sharing.
Edit: I bestow your first thanks upon thy username.
I'm really curious to see how people can get these games to run on our evos, keep us posted!

now if only we had a fix for the bluetooth to allow the use of a wireless controller, this would be perfect
I really believe in the developer especially having bought Snesoid from him and played it religiously like everyday! Games were really laggy at first but the first update made super mario 64 work SMOOTH
Its time like this that I wish I had the Motorola Zoom. This would be so awesome to play on that.

Get wiimote from the market, it allows you to use your wii remote as the controller i dont think it works with sense though
Mario 64 here i come..yes!!
Just tested it out...with mario kart 64 and super mario 64.
list of problems i have:
sound is very laggy(i figured this one)
Mario kart froze on me 3 times in a row before it fully worked(but then it ran pretty good)
Super Mario 64 sound was ok and ran right out the gate.
Great work for the first release!

You download the app via google/market, install, the you just search [insert N64 game] rom, then put the zip file on your sdcard, open the app, find it, and start playing.

Have you gotten it to work? I downloaded it, and shows it as connected in the app, but when I enable other inputs [ie bluetooth gamepad ] in the N64 emulatore, it doesn't work.
Are you using a sense rom, because I don't believe it will work with sense?

No, I'm on AOSP [CM7] When I'm in the wiimote app, I can see it confirming when I press B, 1,2, home ect, as the keys on the screen light up and its connected successfully. Just when I try to use it in the game, it doesn't work.
So I take it this emulator runs relatively well on our evo?

Yeah it works pretty well. Still a little laggy here and there, and won't play some games at all. But other than that, its pretty sweet.

Does conkers bad fur day work? That seemed to be pretty CPU intensive.
Awesome news. SOmeone post a vid!

No reason it shoudn't, if its laggy, overclock a little bit.

Haha I meant like how well, I know how to run them I just meant I've been running psx emulators for a while with only moderate success and since n64 is running at 64 bit I was wondering how well it ran. Thank you though, that was very considerate!

that's so small. I don't see the practicality of this thing. thanks for sharing though
Looks great. Have you tried it with emulators? Any lag?

Question are you on stock or custom firmware ? I bought the same keyboard a few weeks ago and it wouldn't run on my g2x but I was running stock.
Runs with all my Emulators and im on CM7 but the buttons are soft style so you can type very fast its a great must have tool and there is zero lag on anything you can even shut the screen on and off with one button

got mine for like 15$ from amazon a couple months ago, it works on stock and custom roms on my Vibrant, haven't tried my g2x though
If 15 dollars I would get that keyboard, but while searching youtube for some unboxings and reviews I found this gem.

The mini keyboard just arrived.
I can pair it but it says its not connected.
Anyone else encounter this?
I do not have much experience with Bluetooth devices.
My question would be why?? Seems like a novelty at best.
Might as well lug around a netbook/laptop if you're going to be lugging around a keyboard. That would get old in a hurry away from your office/home... and of course, 95% of people are using a PC when not mobile. Kinda defeats the purpose of a candy bar device.....to do away with an external keyboard
Well, for one, check out the link a few post up. Its a mini keyboard, about the same size of the phone its self.
Also, I am not totally sure on why it matters, I just want to get it working.
Personally, I wanted it for emulators, I tend to prefer Not a physical keyboard when playing games. I very much enjoy the extra space in the keys as well as the tack tile feedback it provides.
Has anyone got the wiimote to connect with their infuse? I would really like to use it with n64oid but it just wont work! Any ideas??

what's there to kid about. many phones can connect to the wii mote. search the market. there are a few app that accomplish syncing a wiimote to android. unfortunately the wii mote is not compatible with the Samsung bt3.0 stack. cm7 is bt2.1 and fixes that problem.

umm wii mote + hdmi+ smartphone + sega emulator = portable entertainment and a way to make friends envious. it is a common request actually and its great for travel and parties (my friends are geeks-hence me frequently visiting a cell phone forum) and it is great especially if you have kids or a nephew (I have 2 nephews)
This sounds awesome. Any other non-conventional devices connect to the phone?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
well the wii mote doesn't work on the infuse(works on most other androids) , but you can use a standard mouse and keyboard to game and navigate the ui. there are some game controlers that work but I can't remember which ones. search the sgs sections if you are interested.
Awesome, keyboard/mouse would come in handy considering these come with HDMI adapters, tomorrow will be a fun day. Lol

Anyone know of a way to change the Bluetooth stack manually because I had it working on cm7 captivate........
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
CM7 uses "googles bluetooth stack which is why it works. This might point someone in the right direction as I have no idea on how to change it.
On all non AOSP kernels the "Bluez" Stack has to be cooked into it. It's tougher than..., well I don't want to mention it.... and easier done with CM which is based off of AOSP.
Same with Sense roms as well, which is why I had such a hard time bouncing between AOSP and sense roms when I had my N1.....
Plus with our HDMI output, wouldn't it be just as easy to use the onscreen buttons on the phone even though there will be an overlay on the main screen...?
Well I got it to connect to my Infuse (and Touchpad). All the keystrokes are detected. Only problem is that they don't translate in N64oid or Tiger Snes--as if they aren't working.
Anybody find a workaround?

Most emus with external controller support have the option to disable the controller overlay. Doesn't do you any good to not have the overlay without external input though, but I have tested this via HDMI output on the *-oid emus

I purchased this app on market but i must say the customization is quite limited like widget resizing, but it works decent though.
Is this thread just to show that SPB does landscape?
Not sure I understand your comment about the honeycomb thread..

I really have activated the three times yesterday, having to reboot, did not answer the Task manager: mad: and so given the partner who is not customizable. Frankly I prefer a hundred times The Pro Launcher.
This new version of spb shell is the latest, v1.2, which is a tablet version and now supports landscape orientation. The previous versions (1.0 to 1.1.3) are all in portrait mode.
The customizations are really limited (you cannot even resize the widgets), but to be able to browse through your homescreens in that amazing 3d effect is something that no other launcher has done before! Imho, the 14$ is all worth it.

Also, the previous versions lag like crazy in my tab! But this new one is fast and smooth; its speed even comparable to those of launchers we have come to love, like launcherpro adw and vtl.

$5 maybe.probably even. But $14? Nope.overpriced.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
I agree. For this price, no 3D effect is going to cut it.
I'd expect this price from some complex office / productivity application designed SPECIFICALLY for the tab. That means complete optimization and layout given the hardware and so on.
As this is not the case, I'll stick to ADW Ex. Achieves exponentially more at a decent price.
Looks ok, though. I guess it's a memory hog when running full speed...

I've been watching the Ram and while the other launchers do not appear, the SPB shell running with 116mb appears !!!!!!
I like SPB shell, but it crashes all the time in my Mesmerize, and there is a lot of green and red in it, the pictures get blurred when I spin it and the icons are too small. Still needs a lot of work.
You know you've wanted to play some games on an emulator on your phone. Old classics from the NES/SNES/GameBoy era.
Here's what I've tried so far (all under CM7):
Using my wiimote + nunchuck:
Download BluezIME-v1.14-Wiimote.apk (or the latest version that ends with Wiimote) from http://code.google.com/p/android-bluez-ime/downloads/list
Install it, and select Bluez IME as your input method. (Settings > Language and Keyboard)
Put your Wiimote into discoverable mode by pressing and holding 1 + 2 until the 4 indicator lights start flashing
After a few moments, BluezIME will recognize your Wiimote and list it
Select the Wiimote
Now you can use your Wiimote as a virtual keyboard!
Go into your emulator and select keyboard as input method, and configure the keys to your liking.
So far I've only tried SNESDroid as an emulator, but this should work with ANYTHING that accepts keyboard input, including your SMS app, web browser, etc. It's mapping your Wiimote keys to keys on a virtual keyboard on your phone.
Enjoy!
I'm big on emulators. I actually have quite the collection of real Sega, NES, and SNES cartridges. I wish VB supported the bluetooth drivers needed to use controller connectivity. I love having SNESDroid. I use my PS3 controller as an SNES controller for my emulator on my laptop. With CM9 about to drop, I will definately be making the switch, and hopefully CM9 will support the bluetooth drivers needed.
I would love to play someone in some Killer Instinct, or something else if they want to play on a PC emulator. All you need is ZSNES v1.42, the ROM, and Hamachi. Works perfect. I have a killer instinct tourney server on Hamachi.

As for emulating on phones, The app fb recommended doesn't have Sixaxis support yet, so I use Sixaxis Controller app. On the ICS roms, when you use that app, it makes the emulator a little laggy at times, like during high combos on KI.
wicked4u2c has posted a video on how to set up emulators on Android devices. He covers downloading the emulators/games, setting up wireless controllers, and connecting your device to your TV. If you get the chance, watch some more of his videos, they're excellent and cover many different Android related topics!
Also, while the free emulators are decent enough, I personally use Robert Broglia's emulators. They do cost a few bucks for each one, but his emulators are extremely accurate and very customizable. The ones I use (MD.emu, NES,emu, GBA.emu) run great on the Galaxy S 4G with only minor slowdowns here and there.

As fb said he got it working, but he was on an MTD rom. I'm trying to get it on BML.
Look up Phonejoy. I've read about success stories with our device, I just can't figure out where to buy. The website is in between repairs.
BML is GB roms right? I am on MTD, so I should be fine.
Sent from my Xoom using xda app-developers app
Yeah mtd works fine with Wiimotes but not so great with tv out
bml is the opposite. Can't win.
Ultragen has tv out with no green bar in landscape. It seemed to be a pretty solid rom too. I just like GB better. Seems to be snappier for me. My quad scores are double on GB also. I think this phonejoy thing is gonna be the best bet for our phones on GB. However, the website seems to be out of stock.
