Title: Is mame (or another emulator) possible on my blackberry?
Post by: javeryh on November 22, 2004, 06:29:51 pm

I just got a Blackberry 7230 for work and I'm wondering if it is possible to get some games on there - it came loaded with an arkanoid clone and it's great on the train...

Any computer will really do if it runs and has enough disk space.

I seriously doubt Blackberry can run Windows/DOS, or even Linux based programs.  I have heard you can run Palm based apps from the server, but there is no MAME emulator for Palm yet.

Blackberry don't use Palm OS.

I doubt the blackberry has the CPU speed nor graphics processing capability.  Storage space actually isn't the issue.
