There are quite a few mobile devices that are able to run SNES emulators:
GP2X
Nintendo DS
Sony PSP
Symbian S60 Smartphones
Windows Mobile Smartphones/PDAs
...others?

I wonder which of those platforms gives the best performance.

The PSP gives the best performance on emulated SNES on a mobile/handheld gaming device

No, PSP is better than smartphones.

Um... any platform running Windows Mobile can run a perfect Snes9x port called PocketSNES.

Afaik, the snes9xtty (or whatever) still has slowdown on games with special chips. PocketSNES does not.

I hate using the stylus on the SNES emu for my PocketPC (which runs Windows Mobile)

PSP, SNES9XTYL is very good. PSPs are very available. You don't need a flashcard like you do with the DS.

Everything is hard to play on PocketPC, I saw some guy playing Quake on one once...

...But could he actually play it, NOPE cause the controls were dodgy (like everything else)

Has anyone actually tried all of these to compare? Or are all the PSP people just saying PSP?

I've only used the PSP but I think it emulates well...
