I had an idea for Bluetooth multiplayer with two palms -- use one like a bluetooth gamepad. For example, you have two palms-- one person has one that is set to server, and person 2 has it set to client. Person 2's palm acts just like a gamepad for person 1's palm. And if bluetooth is fast enough, you could possibly make it so that you can send the emulated image back to person 2 (probably not)
if you actually get that, what do you think?

Bluetooth isn't fast enough to send the image itself back to person 2, but it could conceivably be used to sync multiplayer emulation between the 2 devices (client/server, both running emulation, displaying on both screens, one player per device), which would probably be much easier and more practical than what you're describing.

I dont think palm's bluetooth is that fast. although there ar many games that say they can do it, like microquad(live bluetooth racing)

I meant like the bluetooth gamepad -- that works... samphex: NesEm can do it -- so i think LJP should be able to (and LJX) |

NesEm and co. send the inputs, not the screen, like all networked emulators do for obvious speed reasons  |

I was trying to make an easier way so metaview might actually implement it :-)

I would only implement a real multi-device multiplayer option, if there is already some working code insight the emu cores. I'm not going to debug mp-code with DebugLogs on a Palm device, no way!

That's why I'm going to implement it in LJX using the PC version to debug  |
