I was referring to Maemo and previous hardware and not just the N900 (sorry).
The devs that made the emulators for Android found a way to use C+, but they still have to use some resources through the byte code translation layer.
Still, they run waaaay better than a Java version would. If you search Youtube, you will see how great games run on Android based emulators, so Maemo and the N900 should run through them all like warm butter
Um - if you're going to hack it yourself, why don't you just send him the patch?
I did and will do again this evening with two player mode. But i can fully understand that he doens't just add features he can't even test without the required hardware.

OK; I read it as though you were keeping a private fork, but wanted everyone to send controllers to javispedro so he could write the support. It did seem rather odd; anyway, my bad.

I can certainly see that, but if it helps, take a deep breath and remember that there are drivers in the Linux kernel that have been written, reviewed and included, all by people that don't have access to the hardware
Not to mention virtually the entire contents of maemo-extras.
The issue is that I want to try sneaking a working version to extras(-stable), then start working on a next release considering the newest developments in mind, possibly dropping libhgw and SDL (and thus going to X11+EGL+Pulseaudio/esd, or even just Gtk+, as fms does. still not decided on this.) and reworking the input system, so that one can play with multiple zeemotes, or one wiimote and a zeemote, etc.

Please sneak the patched version ;-) You will get at least two more votes in -test (Till and me I'd guess :-) and we can then start promoting the Zeemote in the Wiki for Gaming etc.
