Use the edges for the directional movement, tap screen for a/b. Took me a couple of minutes to figure it out. Also been speaking with the author, should be some performance improvements coming in the next version and improved controls if enough people complain

Improved performance is the most important thing atm ... it says my titan is slow -_-"

On screen controls and performace...

Erm, this emulator includes ROMs... like, a lot of ROMs... and they look like commercial games.

Isn't this a problem?

Probably, but it was under review for quite some time and they passed it with the ROMs included. :s Marketplace certification is still a mystery to me.

What is the copyright on almost 30 year old games anyway (that's scary)?

Nintendo keeps their copyrights current by releasing a mario/zelda game every 2-3 years but, Adventure for the Atari 2600 ?

Atari is no longer a company, it's just a name (the orginal company is long gone, the name was sold to a software company a few years ago). Any title on the 2600/7800 has not been seen in well over 15 years for a name remake or other uses.

I really wonder what is the copyright guidelines are here....

As for the emulator goes, performace is not great on my Trophy with 7800 titles, WHen we can run NES/SMS almost perfect, this should be much better. And we do need some onscren controls, even if they are basic.
