[Q]Nintendo DS Emulator for Android - Galaxy S II Themes and Apps

Is there any other Nintendo DS emulator then nds4droid which is the slowest crap I ever seen?
Any infos or ideas are welcome.
Thanks in advance!

as far as i know NDS4Droid is the only one there is.
Since it is quite new it may get some improvements but since emulating isn`t easy i dont expect a fluid NDS Emu for the next 2 years

Actually there is the Tiger Labs nds emulator as well. But the developer of that, tiger king , hasn't updated it so i guess nds4droid is better. A few people emailed the nds4droid developer and he said that he is working hard on making the app run on dual core phones. Have some patience it'll be ready in about a month. Or you could donate to him and send him an email asking about his progress

I don't know if there's another NDS emulator, but please, respect the work of the devs ! Moreover, it is still in development, so improvements are to come !

NDS4DROID is too slow to be used.
Thanks anyway.

Jeah, on my galaxy s2 you cant play any game normal!!!
I wanted to check whats good and whats bad :-D
The bad:
Dont support dual core
Cant read zipped roms
Xxxxxxxxxtra slow
Controls can be beater
Big price
Almost no updates
And much more .......
The "GOOD" :
That this emu exsists
But realy nothing good
Oh, and the pokemon pearl is working normal, but playing it you can get realy angry

It is slow now, but is likely to be quicker later. I'm also using it so I know what you mean by slow - it's a nightmare, really - but that's only because the application is still using the phone as a single core device. With later updates, it may be able to utilize the SGSII's dual core functions for smoother game play.
For now, we just have to wait - or you could donate to the dev.
Pokemon seems to be the few playable games though - Platinum does lag a bit though, and am going to try Black.

Dreamcast emulator?

So how about a Dreamcast emulator? Will the Galaxy S be able to run it?
Probably, just no more than 1-2fps sadly.
I think it would.
gona be very hard to find someone to develop for anything other than the snapdragon CPU's ie nexus one etc.
its just a bonus for us having a better GPU imo.
Resurrected and yes:

Shenmue in my pocket? *dreams*
Going to check this out tonight, can't see the video's from work...
This emulator + Tv cable + remote controller pad = success!
I am one of the testers for drk|Raziel.. He is "tired" for now. Unfortuantely he doesnt seem to want to work on it further and he hasnt given indication he will release source code made after 2006(the source that is out now). The android port was based off of the psp port. Its sad, but the emu may never be completed :| I have tried to get zotdd and yongzh to start on it perhaps or maybe drk can release the source code of what he has completed as of now. There is however, work on a Gamecube/Wii emu for android right now.
zotdd is the one doing psx4droid isnt him? If he is forget it, he cant not a psx emu to work decently much less a DC one. The one doing FPSE would be my only hope at getting a DC emu...man I just imagine playing Skies of Arcadia in my phone....or Shenmue!

Gamecube ROMs

does anyone know of a working gamecube ROM?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
not unless someone makes a gamecube emulator
someone should get on that, I have no idea where to start.. but if someone can point me in the right direction.. Ill at least give it a try.
Probably not possible for the Epic 4G Touch. Look at Dolphin for example, and the hardware requirements that it needs.
Dolphin barely runs well on PC. I think the best you can hope for is Dreamcast emulation... But that's kind of dead, and has been for like a year.

By next year, cell phones will have the same chipsets as current desktops (probably as fast as the i7 from intel). It's only a matter of time before Android/iPhone gets gamecube emulator.
EDIT: I'm not very knowledgeable about software emulation, but it seems that our current processors, which are hardly half as fast as the average desktop can run N64oid quite well, in some cases, better than Project64 can on Desktop.
I used to be pretty heavily into emulation, and I remember one of the MAME developers (Haze) saying it takes nearly 4x the power of the original game hardware capacity to emulate the old hardware correctly. But MAME does it's emulation without any hacks, or hardware accelleration. It could go the route of ePSXe and use plugins, and it wouldn't require anything more than we currently have. Anyway, just some thoughts, I am by no stretch a programmer. This thread makes me want to update my MAME set, something I haven't done in years. I wonder how big it is now?

[Q] N-Gage Emulator....?

So I found my old N-Gage the other night in a box. A few games and one of them was the awesome game The Elder Scrolls Travels: Shadowkey. Game had potential but was dumbed down by the low power hardware of the N-Gage. Does anyone know if there is a emulator for the N-gage on android? Nice thing about the games is that it is easy to copy the game data off it as there is no encryption.... Could be awesome to play this with an emulator that would allow you to speed up the game a bit... thanks in advance.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWZtErLAtA8
Edit: I am going to venture that no emulator exists..... did some searching around and fond nothing but an emulator for PC.... but then again all the links for that PC emulator for N-gage were dead......hmmmm
I have emailed Bethesda thanking them for making these awesome games.... and asked if there were plans to release either a new game for android/IOS and or a remake of Shadowkey with updated graphics and of course Xperia PLAY support. I seriously doubt anything will from this but still, doesnt hurt to ask.. if others are interested in this idea please email Bethesda at the following link:

Dont even think there is one on PC! Shame really! As a Big 40K Fan! Always wanted to check out Warhammer 40,000: Glory in Death. (Ave Imperator)

oh yeah !!!!1
elder scroll i the best game i've ever checked
High_Seize
Pathway_to_Glory
Pathway_to_Glory:_Ikusa_Islands
Best turn-based strategy games, ever. And only for N-Gage. And my n-gage died sometime ago
PtG was like Jagged Alliance in WW2. I played that game through tens of times.
I think there was a n-gage emulator for PC back in the days. Though I am not so sure anymore.

Love Turn based strategy!!!! Never know about Pathway to Glory but need to check it out! Thats what we need more of on Android! Would love to see a mobile based version of X-Com! (Know somebody did a version for WinMob years ago! Hopefully with the new remake inbound!!!!!) or Jagged Alliance! (there was a Nintendo DS version i think!). Julian Gollop needs to bring some of his Ninja Skills to Android! (Got most of his games on my XPlay with emulation!!!)
I bought a Motorola RAZR instead of that phone.... worst mistake ever :'(
Mile High Pinball was one of my favs
Did anyone ever play the ONE ... ?
lol, you read my thoughts. The only elder scrolls games we could run on our phone are shadowkey and arena (daggerfall is still to laggy i fear); of course an android remake/release of whatever game in the series would be amazing. Anyways, even if there was an n-gage emulator, the screen would be pretty much half black :\
i've never played shadowkey, though. How was it compared to the main series? In terms of world size, things to do etc.
Only 2 games Id want on android tbh.
High Seize and Pocket Kingdom. I could SOOOO see Pocket Kingdom with todays Multiplayer ability.
Also I love my Ngage QD. Sad that Ngage arena is no more. Also The Civ 2 port on ngage was spot on.
I do rem winning 2nd place in the high seize ngage arena tournament. Only cause my FINAL game.. I was a different color and I mis looked at my units lol.. But still won some nice swag.
Btw, a remake "might" be in the works? http://insomniacgamers.net/IGForums/index.php?topic=1467.0
Sorry for bumping this but, someday someone should really release this for android.
There have been a lot games I enjoyed on N-gage:
- High mile pinball (Playable also on the newer Nokia phones but plays best on N-gage)
- Splinter Cell (Maybe not impressive now, but back in the day I played this out over and over.)
- The Elder Scrolls Travels: Shadowkey
- Xanadu Next (Some may dislike this but I love Xanadu!)
- Catan (Is out for Android I think, but I would prefer playing this version once again.)
- Ashen (Great shooter, never finished it would love to some day.)
- High Seize
- System Rush (Nice wipout clone.)
- The Roots: Gates of Chaos (Great RPG!)
- Worms World Party (Remember winning 1rst price in the tournament on N-gage arena.)
- The Sims Bustin' Out (I think someone will shoot me for listing this, but its a fun advanture and I love it.)
- Rifts: Promise of Power (Great RPG!)
So if anyone can, please DO make an N-gage emulator.
There are loads of great games, and I bet there are more people who would like to play these on the go once again.
Kind regards, Stefan.
What? You didn't mention pocket kingdom? Lol

One was not bad, but not really my game.
See people, there is enough reason to make an N-gage emulator...

I loved King of Fighters Extreme and Asphal Urban GT2 from the N-gage
Well pocket kingdom was fun. Play offline then go online vs others. Someone is trying to remake it for android. Also civ 2 port was great on ngage.

N-Gage emulator for pc
There indeed is an emulator available to run N-Gage applications on a PC platform.
It comes with the Nokia SDK for the S60 platform.
It can be downloaded on Nokia official site.
Other cellphones that run N-Gage applications: N73, N78, N81, N82, N93, N95, N96, and the Nokia XpressMusic 5320.
Does any one have experience making emulators?

Emulators

Has anyone tried out a PSOne emulator on the One V?
ahh.. noo.. u give it a try and letme know was curious about it actually :thumbup:
Sent from my One V
yes, same here...
wanna try it too, but since one v ram & screen are a lil bit small, so i'm not very sure it will runs smooth...
In my experience it is a bit cumbersome to use the emulators without a keyboard or more programmable hard keys.Though is should have no problem running the games I was running emulators on my Optimus v with little to no lag

The only one I found cost money and the one I downloaded wont work without a license. I found a free Nintendo 64 Emulator at the Play Store.
Here's an awesome site I found. I have a ton of ROMs downloading. I didn't have to register or anything. I will test them out soon and let you all know if this site is legit.
PS-I saw reports of someone running a PS emu on their phone that only has a 600 processor. So if that's true then our phones shouldn't have an issue.
My SNES and GBA emulators are running my games without problems. Going to test out Nintendo 64 now.
Confirmed. It works quite well actually. The only problem I have is the N64 Emu I'm using. It works great but has WAY too much spam ads that pop up. They will even pop up in your notifications.
EDIT- Do not download the N64 Emulator from the Play Store. That's the one with all of the ads. Use this one instead.

It's important to note here that although console game emulators may be shared on XDA (as long as they're free), the ROMs themselves are considered proprietary software and may not be shared or linked to. For that reason I removed the link to the ROM sharing site in the post above.

Zelda: The Windwaker, Dolphin (Gamecube and Wii) emulator for the Oneplus 5

Hello all,
Have been trying to get this emulator working for some time now with limited to half decent success through the likes of overclocking and reduced thermal throttling, but the experience has never been what I would call satisfactory, which is horrible because the emulator works on the shield and PC...
That being said enter the Oneplus 5
Installed the emulator from here https://dolphin-emu.org/download/?ref=btn (development versions)
Already have the game so i'm legally entitled to the ROM *NOTE* Please do not ask me to list locations where you can obtain the ROM, you should own the original before obtaining a copy
Changed the settings within the emulator and fired up the Windwaker, waited until a part of the game where it would normally lag or at the very least drop some frames and ........... perfection I've been able to play the game up until Dragon Roost Island without a single drop in performance, the HTC failed on the second island (Can't remember it's name but it's in the video) The onplus 5 has some serious power over other devices and this is testament to exactly that, a few more iterations from Qualcomm and i'm confident we'd have the grunt to be able to power some serious PC games, hell that old question of "Can it run Crysis" may be being asked soon Good times.
Anyway.
Below are instructions on how to play this game on your phone, I'm personally using a Moga controller as the experience is just waay better with a pad.
##########################################################################################################################
The Emulator
Download the Emulator from here https://dolphin-emu.org/download/?ref=btn (development versions)
Obtain the ROM (Again I can't provide this)
Copy the ROM in Zip format to your SD card
Fire up the Emulator and then compare your settings to the ones found in the video
Moga
If you are going to use a Moga controller you will need to set this up so it is using HID Bluetooth, for this you would choose B not A
Open Bluetooth and add the controller that is found, should be called Moga Pro if you have a pro, or the other names respectively if you have other variants
*NOTE* the original moga pocket does not seem to want to work on the Oneplus 5, this worked on my HTC 10 but actually kills BT on the oneplus? Weird
Next download the Moga Universal Driver app which can be found from here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.obsidianx.android.mogaime
*NOTE* for some reason i couldn't find it on my play store so use the above link? Again, weird!
Click Manage controllers and you should see your previously added controller, click this and then enable the driver
Click Enable Driver
Click Current mode and select Gamepad, no virtual keyboard
You should now be able to control the cursor on screen
Lastly
For in game settings, please refer to the video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhgNxuu_YlM&t=8s
Apologies in advance, the HTC RE i used for the video does not focus well on screens? (what do you want for £40 ) and my mogas right stick is a bit icky so it doesn't always input up and down, using the Windwaker will be horrible for me i can tell
Anyway, enjoy and feel free to ask questions should you get stuck and I'll help out where I can.
I'm getting my op5 before the month ends and I'm eager to try this out.

Yea I've tried quite a few, even metal gear works well from the psp, a solid 20fps which is basically the same as the psp was. Not many other games which will stress it as much as that does.
Funny thing is the phone doesn't even get warm.. bravo Qualcomm.

PS2 isnt' quite there mate, it's laggy and thats down to the architecture of the PS2 and emulating it is a massive ballache, similarly the PS3 even on a monster PC has a hard time being emulated.
It'll be done over time with optimizations but i fear that our trusty Oneplus devices may never have that ability.
But to be fair, the fact that it can run the windwaker is testament to how rapid this device actually is, PSP too, not as well optimized but it's running perfectly well.

Technically this is still warez. Nintendo explicitly states on their website the falsehood of owning a physical game entitles you to have a rom. They said this is still illegal to own a rom and use it im an emulator.
Dont mean to ruin a good time on here but you can get in trouble. Heres a link since i know it will be asked for https://www.nintendo.com/corp/legal.jsp

If i bought the game, i have the right to use it. Using it on my Wii, on my PC, or on my OP5 is the same IMO.

I haven't stated where to get ROMs from, plus you could dump the ROM yourself, I'm pretty certain you are legally entitled to a copy of a game you already own, I'm also certain you can download a ROM for evaluation purposes, 24 hours is the allowed time.
Obviously people don't listen to this but I have read this many times over the last decade, so unless something has changed I will always stick to what I've learned.
Not completely sure Nintendo can ask that of people? But again not sure.
PS: also as you already own the game there is no harm in obtaining a copy, they have already been paid and you the user haven't gained anything more than what you initially paid for, there is an argument for this so I'd say it's an on the fence rule.
Either way, this thread is a how to and not a break the law thread, I don't supply the locations of ROMs and I don't make anyone download anything illegal, this is simply information.
