Not too many people know of the thriving iPhone application community. The iPhone's 667Mhz processor, 128MB RAM and PowerVR MBX 3D GPU lends itself handily in the running of several console (and computer) emulators. Few of them below. Other thriving emulators on the iPhone include a NES emulator and a SCUMVMM emu (for lucas arts games) To download 'em, simply add http://zodttd.com/repo/ to you installer to get them. Playstation Emulator: psx4all Status: Version 0.10. Decent compatibility, varies with game

Due to the iPhone having little hardware buttons, controls are via onscreen icons. This may make it a bit difficult for fast-paced games (though some people have reportedly completed games like resident Evil 3 on the iphone), but it's perfectly suited for strategy and RPG games like final fantasy, advance wars etc. CHeck out the DKC 3 screenshot for an example of an onscreen, transparent controller. Luckily, a hack is being developed to enable interface between standard controllers and the iphone, so external controllers can be used in he near future. What makes this progress remarkable is Apple hasn't released their SDk yet, so this work is strictly done by people with little familiarity with the hardware. With the SDK release, it is thought that N64 emulation will be a reality. Expect NeoGEo, MAME and other arcade emus to hit the phone soon. |

Mr. Texas Hello, I know you might be suprised to see this thread after all these years. Please I want to know if its possible to get emulators for blackberry storm. Actually any good game will do especially racing games. Anything though. Thanks |

blink182: Surprised? Damn right  I'm sorry but there are no emulators for the BB Storm. It's an ancient, underpowered phone. |
