Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Sega Master System is available. It's the mastergear emulator. But it hasn't reached the extras repository yet, AFAIK.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Don't forget dosbox :)

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

my eyes hurt looking about the green text..

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Can you give a little info on dosbox, what does it emu?

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

DOS running on an x86 PC. Great for old PC games.
http://maemo.org/packages/view/dosbox/

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

DOS applications. Back when computers were just starting to get fancy GUIs Windows was also mainly command line driven. =p

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

n64???????

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Don't forget ScummVM!

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

There should be a special section for game engine emulators, Like ScummVM (Lucasarts adventure games) and GemRB (Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale and such)

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Don't know much about those, but ill see what info i can find

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

I'm waiting for Frodo for Fremantle too btw. C-64. great stuff. Put that on the list, since it's there for previous maemo versions.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

We need GemRB to be ported too! Mmmmm Baldur's Gate 2..

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Can you give me a link to include

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Thanks for the list :) I am wondering though how well the controls work (without connecting a wiimote which is not practical when you are on the move ;))

Maybe some company could develop bluetooth controls that can be attached to the N900? That would be awesome..

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Well, there's this mobile gaming controller called the zeemote http://www.zeemote.com/

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Hmm looks promising but I cant picture myself using this e.g. on a bus? Needs to be attachable, like a case...

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Personally i think the n900 keyboard will do just fine :D

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

You can also use a wiimote. Same issue though with any BT controller most likely. I doubt anyone is gonna make one of those weird giant cases that has controls built in (unless its DIY).

I think the keyboard will suffice for mobility just fine.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Where is MAME?

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

I second that.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

I'll third it. So there you have it, it must exist now. Someone find the link. :D

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

This information should go to the wiki, please.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

I found Xmame in os2008 but all links were broken so i didnt bother listing

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Hatari - Atari ST(e)/TT/Falcon emu

http://koti.mbnet.fi/tammat/hatari/index.shtml

https://garage.maemo.org/projects/hatari

No Maemo 5 version yet.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

What about SEGA Genesis (Mega Drive) ?

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

What about just the plain old Atari 2600, 5200 or whatever flavors came out of that?

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

I think there has been some work/discussion done for PicoDrive and DGen on maemo. Doesn't look like there is much other than a few threads here though.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

PSP emulation may be possible. The Pandora can manage the Dreamcast, which has more/similar power, so I would expect the N900 to perform similarly. I have doubts we would be able to play the most strenuous games for either, but early titles, 2D games, and RPGs should be possible.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

PSP emulation was possible on a Pentium with 133 MHz. I used to play a lot Tekken 3 on my PC running bleem PSX emulator 10 years ago.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

PSP != PSX... Crap, the no-shouting feature removes my capitalization...

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

That should say "DOS - DOSBox", or "Old PC - DOSBox", or similar, but not Windows.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

My question follows along these lines...

The dosbox build for the n900, how extensive is it's emulation of the x86? Do we have bios emulation? Is it possible to install win95 for example? Do the BOCHS plug-ins work with this build? (for 486 and 386 emulation?)

I know that hardware wise the phone is more than capable of running it. (I base this statement off of running win95 on my dell x3 which is like 6 years old)

While running a windows product on an open source platform might seem sacrilegious, it is most certainly going to be what I'm doing if I can. With OQO's death in the business world, the N900 appears to be one of the closest substitutes.

At the bear minimum, would you be able to install a desktop linux version? (ubuntu, etc.)

Thanks and look forward to collaborating with folks here.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

You left out Dreamcast...

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Also, PSX != Playstation 1 either.

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Would anyone please be so kind to SHARE a video with VGBA and DrNokSNES running on the N900? If I had mine, I would have postet a video on day one!

PLEASE ! I would be very very grateful !

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

I wonder if we'll see the Sega Saturn emulator, Yabause, ported over...there's already a linux version
http://sourceforge.net/projects/yabause/files/
Lot's of great 2D games worth playing on the Saturn!

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

Could we add the ps3 open remote app?

Re: Emulators for the N900
 

There are videos of DrNokSNES on the N900 on YouTube
