Emulators on HTC Typhoons (C500, SDA, SP3i, etc..)

[Guest pioyolo]

I'm new to the forum and I'm about to puchase one of these phones. I've did a search and read many topics but never quite got a definite answer.

Does emulation work on these phones (C500, SP3i, SP3, Tmobile SDAs...)??

I know someone tested gnuboy (some roms affected by lack of multi button presses), & picodrive (some roms affected by lack of multi button presses).

What about SmartNES? or PocketSNES? Do these work on this model? And if it does, is it playable? Does it crash?

Thank you for thoughts.

Cheers, ;)

welcome to the forum !

- umm looks as if no one has the answer - so you could just try them out yourself and tell us . . . please remember posessing / slwapping nintendo ROMs when you don't actually have the original game is illigal..... theres an offical position on it around here.

Gnuboy works great, if a little slowly. Got Donkey Kong Land to work, along with Tetris and a few others. I gather than being as I have a gameboy and all the games I used gathering dust in my attic then I'm not breaking any laws?

The one I use the most is picodrive, which is excellent. Keypress isn't too much of an issue if you set the soft-keys to be buttons A & B. Have happily completed Sonic 1 & 2 on my C500 over the course of numerous tube journeys. There's no sound, but i don't count that as a major negative. Frame rates are excellent.

no your not braking the law if you own the game. I.e you have tetris in the loft and you download tetris from the internet.

On my C500

GnuBoy - Works

PocketSNES - Works without sound, 0.5mb ROMS only work

PicoDrive - Works no sound

smartNES - Works Great

best to use your soft keys for buttons as they are the only ones that can work at the same time as the joystick

Did anyone test this on T-mobile SDA phones?

Any differences in gameplay between the Typhoons (sp3) and the Feelers (sp3i)?

Thanks for all those who replied. ;)

Owning a c500 i can say that they work fine on it. Rocker key can be annoying

Not owned an sda/sp3i(would like to though, just to test of course) so cant comment whether they work, but i would imagine that they should and if they do then gameplay should be easier as the joystick looks much more suitable for gaming.

pocketsnes dont even work on the sda

pocketsnes dont even work on the sda

i hav an sda and certain versions work and others dont. version 1.52 works on the sda. it runs fine without sound but if u enable sound its slower and the sound is laggy. to bad theres not a better version.
