Thumbs up Silverlight SNES Emulator!

Hi guys

Whilst browsing, I came across this page at the microsoft channel 9 forum http://channel9.msdn.com/forums/Coff...SNES-Emulator/

The guy has written a silverlight SNES emulator, how cool!!

There was me thinking without native code emulators wouldn't be possible, but heck just tried a rom and it worked, hopefully this means emulators on WP7 even if it does mean side loading them onto the phone.

here's the link to the emulator webpage http://unlimitedgilgamesh.com/supersharplight.html

Awesome. Hope it grows into something great for WP7. Either way nice to see a simple EMU being built in Silverlight and hopefully XNA in the future.

no really tho can an app open the browser within the app & download things to the isolated storage thats reserved for that app? i think i read somewhere where the iphone emulators did that or something like that

I'm not sure if you can do it through the web browser control (one would think so) but you could code your own thing to download them at least.

I hope someone ports Scumm over. Those old lucas art games are better touch experiences than console emulators. I also hate using the screen for virtual gamepad and buttons. A device really needs a d-pad and buttons to play console emulators well.
