I'm planning on getting the wizard very soon and i was wondering which emulation software you guys have been successful with. i understand that snes is abit sketchy, but has anyone tried the psx FPSEce program? I was looking at the videos and i was pretty impressed, but the only thing was that the program was being runned on hp's ipaq series with 400+mhz. how was this thing par up with the measley 200mhz? has anyone tried it?
i'm pretty hyped.. btw hermes isn't coming for a while so i don't htink i can hold out seeing that i need to switch out of carriers very soon.
I have been using Pocket Nester...it runs old NES Roms...I have loved it...Finally Mario 1, 2 & 3 on my phone where they were meant :D

I've been trying to get FPSEce to run FF7 on my wizard, but haven't had much luck yet. I think it's a problem with my rom (making my own from my playstation discs, so I probably botched it somewhere...) I'm going to keep trying though.. I'm worried about the speed issues too.. not sure how well it will work since it seems everyone else is using axims and ipaqs.. haven't read any reports of people doing it on their HTC devices...

FPSEce most likely won't run well at all on the Wizard. I run it on a Universal and it still has major slow downs at times, and only does a semi-decent job in general.

I've also been using PocketNester and also PocketGnuboy, both of which seem pretty fast and stable as well as free!
Also tried PocketUAE last night just for the hell of it, actually worked first time with a 1.3 rom and happily loaded up the first game I found (1st Div Manager). Too slow to be playable (especially in the match part) so no SWOS soon I'm afraid but did remind me of those happy bygone days! Really ought to dig out my A4000 again (or my CD32, A1200 or even my A500!)

I don't want to hijack the thread, but is anyone else having trouble with not getting sound from PocketNester or PocketNES? Neither one has sounds out of all the ROMs I try.

really, thats pretty impressive, i would think the measley 200 mhz processor isn't enough to even have a start screen. =\ do you guys think the hermes will be able to accomplish task?
