I can't find ANY gameplay at all on youtube. Could have quite easily been faked. I can show you Shenmue 'running' on my iPhone 4 if you like. Hell, why not just show 'Modern Warfare 3' on there?
on the XDA Developers forum in the thread for NullDCE/Android as it was called the author has supposedly abandoned development. It's my theory that he (and his supposed tester) that were posting in the thread and providing videos were running a scam trying to stir up donations to the effort. This is why no source or apk have been provided even in an alpha state.

Well, what a surprise... :roll:

Does the PS Vita even have enough muscle to emulate a GC at playable speeds? I can't find any info about the processor speed but they say the ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore CPU is clocked anywhere from 800MHz to 2GHz.

Cycle-by-cycle emulation of the GC on any handheld platform seems impossible to me. I could see a Dreamcast emulator though, since they had it running full-speed on older single-core x86 CPUs.

Emulation on my iPhone would be great, but I am just as content with all my Cave shmups for the iOS. :)

I've got the Dreamcast version of Chu Chu Rocket on my Android phone. Pretty awesome.

What do you mean by 'real'? Mine was officially released by Sega, it cost me a whole $1 :O

Thought you meant it was an emulated version or something. We must have the same game.

They must have increased the price. It's $2.99 and $4.99 for the ipod & ipad versions respectively. I went ahead and got the ipad version.

I didn't even know ChuChu Rocket! was out for the iPhone. Got it now. :) Anything else I should know of? Already have Taiko no Tatsujin from the Japanese iTunes store and all the Cave games from the US store.
