OT - Alternative Handheld Emulation

http://ngage.dcemu.co.uk/zodiac.GIF

Tonight is the start of a long process to update each site and possibly merge some and sort out forums etc as well as try and direct members towards the forums that are lesser used.

To those of you who dont know Alternative Handheld Emulation is, its an emulation and homebrew site for the Tapwave Zodiac, Nokia N-Gage, Symbian 60 and UIQ phones and tonight we have remerged the Gizmondo section back into the site. AHE is what we call it for short and also covers emulation and homebrew on consoles and devices that arent supported by major scenes or sites.

The site is fully up to date with all releases on those consoles mentioned above.

Check out Alternative Handheld Emulation.

I've got an N-Gage. I only got it for Call of Duty, but it has some other memorable games. That thing is hard to get addicted to with that tiny screen and funky controls...

I dunno'. It'd be hard to want to emulate anything on a vertical screen.

... vertical shooters? 1942, raiden, etc.

Also, you're missing out if you don't have Super Monkey Ball or Puyo Pop for it. (and the gameboy emulator works great, and isn't bothered much by the screen size).

sorry to say this, but what was Nokia thinking when they made the N-Gage, it was the worst system in the world.

I own the N-gage phone for almost 2 1/2 years now and i must say i still use it(at least the web browese(HTML) on the way).
Nokia saw the new market for mobile gaming and that was very clever , they just couldnt realise it very well. Und one thing more - it was like with Sega Dreamcast - it was very easy to download games , put them on the Memorycard and play them (so this killed "maybe" the N-gage)
But the BEST thing is that its open for HOMEBREW , and there are a LOT of EMU's out [Gameboy , Sega Mega Drive(picodrive) , NES , SNES - with bluetooth multiplayer - what do you want more???] . A pull down is the small screen (compared with PSP :( ) But as i said , it had a web browser (Opera) , a LOT of IM-client (ICQ , Irc , MSN..... almost all of them ) and you can code and compile everything you want und your able to :eek: ... so its not that "worse"
