NES App?

[MBX]

hi

is there any chance to install the nes-app (nintendo emulator) on the official iphone firmware? or would you need to use a firmware installer hack?

I'm sure the iPhone SDK doesn't allow emulator programs

No, ROMs are illegal. It won't happen on actual software. You'd have to jailbreak if you're into that sort of thing.

No, ROMs are illegal.

ROMS aren't illegal, mo more illegal than any other file out there.

I have a few public domain ROMs and some homebrew games here.

NES ROMS are definitely not illegal. If this is true then this website is ****ED!

You can download NES emulators on your mac like Stella and play any of these games. If you can use Stella on your mac then having an NES emulator on your iphone should not be any different. It isn't available now, but I wouldn't doubt it someone would release it

The only way to install it is to have a jailbroken phone to have access to the 'sandbox' to install programs.

It's never going to show up officially on the app store. Apple isn't stupid.
