NGage + mame?
Lilwolf:
My wife wants to get a family cell phone plan. And I don't really care to much for them (free long distance at home, at work... so it would be used on the commute only).
But I found that I can get an NGage for free when I start the plan... AND there is a mame port for it. (That and GameBoy/Advance and a few others... plus Java!)
The question is this... Anyone have one? How good is the emulation? Any games worth it?
Stingray:
Whoa, back up! Where can you get free Ngage for signing up?

I've got an NGage and I love it.
I don't play any NGage games on it though. eeMame runs beautifully on it, here's the site:

and here's a list of supported games and how well they play:

Nokia series 60 phones are great, there's a wealth of software out there for them. My wife has a 3650 which is also S60 and will play a handful of Mame games.
The only thing I don't like about my NGage is that the placement of the microphone that makes you look like you're talking into a taco; but I believe the NGageQD doesn't suffer from this.

T-Mobile USA has a free NGageQD with new plan sign-ups.
