anyone know anything about emulation on the n-gage

deadduck

my mate has an n-gage and i told him about all the emulation you could do on it. so he gave me the phone to do it for him but so far nothin. i got an mp3 player working on it but as for the rest...

goboy(gameboy emulator) installs fine, detects the roms but when i go to play them it just gives an error.

yewnes(nes emulator) installs fine, doesn't detect the roms.

picodrive(megadrive emulator) installs fine, doesn't detect the roms.

i know people have got these working on the n-gage and other symbian 60 based nokias.

any help appreciated. thanks

there is an MP3 player already on the n-gage? Its one of its main features...

i put ultramp3 on it, it's a bit funkier and works well. any idea how to sort the probs i'm having

Jammer

The goboy demo from handango.com works for me, perfecto.

PicoDrive is very new, and still in beta, so check out forums to see if anyone is having similar probs.

Not familiar with the rest.

thanks for those program names deadduck, i'm interested in gettin more out of my n-gage too but didn't know where to start.

OT: actually now that i think of it, i imagine that thanks to the recent price cuts lots of people will be looking for n-gage emulator/utility/compatibility information so my question/suggestion is:

would it be a good idea to make a sticky to put useful information like that into?
