Emulators on a phone

Before you read, you don't get those on your iPhone.

 

 

 

 

I have N64 and SNES emulators on my Droid 4, you have to pay for them and download straight from Market Place, or on my phone it's called Google Play. Free versions are available, but you can't load your save datas. Thousands of games are free and are less than 1mb in size.

 

I wanted to get PS1 emulator, but there are too many buttons and not enough screen space for them all.

 

Got FF 2 - 6 on my phone, which is funny because you can go search for FF games in Market and they're $15 lololol

Tiger had a free emulator. It was pulled though due to copyright infringement. The playstore has some pretty steep terms including, but not limited to deleting apps off of your device, that google feels you shouldn't have.

Many of the controls for old consoles don't have the same sensetivity as their intended controller use. Plus screen space is a big issue if your touch device only allows dual touch Input, like most do.

None of the new emulators are worth using.

If you didn't download Gameboid before they removed it from the Marketplace, try finding it somewhere on the internet.

I have NES, GB Color and GBA.  I didn't have to pay for any of them though, just go to rom4droid and download on your phone, download the emulators, you may have to download the Bios file, and then download the ROMs.  Works great.

 

I have every Pokemon game from the pre-DS era, the Golden Sun games, the Fire Emblem games, Advance Wars, Mario games, Final Fantasy 1, 2, 3, and Tactics, and a bunch more.

 

It's nice to be able to play them rather the sh*tty games like angry birds

How good is the N64 emulator? I can do SNES/GBA/PS1/etc perfectly on my PSP, but the the N64 emulator isn't very good on it.

I imagine the lack of physical buttons is annoying though. It's one of the main reasons I haven't bothered trying to play many games on my phone thus far.

Way too many buttons on the screen, basically the whole screen is covered in buttons for both N64 and PS1 emulators.
