...and?  Incidentally, that's the guy that (along with myself and others) develops psx4all as well. He just ported a Gp2X emulator The thing is that iPhone homebrew isn't all that popular yet so few people are actually doing stuff for it. |

But it lacks my favorite input mode for playing SNES: a paddle and hard buttons...
Well, I look forward to seeing those Apple/iProducts fanboys getting excited playing on half their screen with their feedbackless controls while I casually enjoy my game on the whole Zodiac screen with all buttons and trigger in the right places.
(Please don't take it personally, I'm just tired of overhyping and fanboys (I'm not saying you're one either)...)

The lack of hard buttons for games is really one of the major factors that would keep me from ever getting something like an iPhone or Touch or anything else along those lines. I love my QWERTY keyboard!

Yeah... you guys are right. I have held an iphone many MANY times, and i felt it to be very weird since I have to keep my eyes on where I am typing or pressing in order to know if I pressed the button or not.
I am not a fanboy myself, but I am sure millions are cheering their heads off in delight to play snes games on an apple hardware.
Eh...I am not really sure what to make of it exactly.

Unless a bluetooth gamepad driver or keyboard driver comes along for the iPhone, the controls don't look so good.
the iPhone can support multi-touch however, which makes things a little better I guess. . . (as opposed say, to a palm without buttons ;D)

I just had a thought- wouldnt they controls be better if it were sideways?

Yes. One of the developers of psx4all.
BTW, there should be psx4palm officially one of these days, as soon as I get LJX better, I think.

All arguments for the huge size of the iPhone's screen become moot and void when the controller/keyboard has to take up more than half of the usable space just to be functional. I'll stick with my hardware buttons and 320x320 screen, thank you.
