In the world of mobile devices there’s always a progression of moving from what it can’t do … to what can I make it emulate. And in near record time the iPhone has gone from “it can’t do anything”, to “it can play Mario”! I mean ultimately that’s the goal isn’t it? We buy multi-hundred dollar devices so we can play games that can be bought on eBay for less than $50 including the console to play it on. I’m sure this is exactly what Steve Jobs had in mind when he was thinking about allowing 3rd party applications to run on the iPhone natively. Emulator fans … go get your ninten-i-phone on!
