In a matter of no time at all they went from the first “hello world” app to having screen capture software, to a voice recorder, to now having an NES emulator on the iPhone. What’s next? So much for Nintendo making games for the iPhone, they already did, quite a few years ago.
The InfoNES core is what powers this wonderful advancement in iPhone gaming. Apparently all the ROMs work, but they are still pretty slow. I can’t wait to see what type of advancements they make in coming weeks in terms of iPhone functionality.
The downsides are the controls suck and there isn’t any way to save. Still worthy investments of your time though, just remember ROMs are only legal for games that you legally own the actual physical copy of.

hehe, well, it’s nice that smart people are coming up with news ways to use iphones since apparently half the people who bought them aren’t using them to make phone calls.
