A kinda-sorta new version of a
Nintendo Entertaiment Syst
em (NES) emulator for the
iPhone (inexplicably dubbed
the
iPhone NES Emulator) has been released on the heels of th
e previously announced
Doom port.
Dubbed
Version 0.20.1, with the right
ROM fil
es you can get to relive 8-bit gaming glory with titles like the original
Metroid, Super Mario, Megaman 2, Punch Out, Legend of Zelda and a h
ost of other blasts from the past. Unlike Doom, this NES emulator has sound (al
though only through the earphones), and can be controlled with precision throug
h a mock gamepad.
Like the DOOM install, it requires a bit more skill to install. If you must hav
e it, get the NES Emulator and some games directly from here, and have more fun
with it than you can with that Doom thing (proving once and for all that NES i
s more.)
