ZodTTD has posted a video demonstration of his progress on the emulator port, n64iphone.

It is a port of mupen64plus along with Ari64’s ARM Dynarec, and Adventus / Orkin’s OpenGLES GPU. Since the graphics processing unit (GPU) code is written with the OpenGL ES 2.0 specification, it limits the devices able to be used to the iPhone 3gs and iPod Touch 3rd Gen as of the current Apple lineup.

Still Needing Implementation:
- Controller plugin (WiiMote / hardware support will come first oddly enough)
- Sound plugin (Can affect performance once enabled)
- Screen scaling & rotation
- ROM selection screen & my usual emulator’s layout
- Improve compatibility a bit as I most likely made a bug or two in the dynarec port

“Note that performance can be improved from what is currently shown here. I am using NO frameskip. I also am not using all the assembly for vector math within the GPU currently. Sound and controlling the emulator aren’t within this video as I still need to implement sound & controller plugins.”

Zodttd has done it once again and this time game emulation on the iphone will never be the same. Nes4iPhone is a new nintendo emulator for the iphone and no it is not just another simple emulator. Check out the video below, yes that is for real you see a wiimote using bluetooth connectivity controlling the emulator on the iphone. Can you really use your wiimote to play games on your iphone, yep “there’s an app for that”. The only tiny flaw with this app is you have to install it through rockapp which a lot of people don’t like as rockapp conflicts with cydia.

Kick it old school playing games like ExciteBike, Super Mario Bros, Zelda, Mike Tysons Punchout, and more! This fully featured emulator comes equipped with save states, battery saves, full sound, zipped rom support, and a fast framerate. It even has custom controller skins!

Note: Trial times out after 2 minutes of gameplay.

Features include:
- WiiMote support via BlueTooth capable devices!
- Fast assembly CPU emulation!
- Download to the ROMs directory within the app!
- Portrait and landscape support.
- Controller overlays are able to be skinned.
- Save states!
- Smoothed scaling options.
- It’s FAST and it works great on both 2.2.1 and 3.x firmwares!
