Nintendo DS Emulator Coming to Android This Year (Maybe)!!




Believe it or not, a Nintendo DS emulator is currently in the works for our Android powered devices. Tiger King recently released his emulator app on the Android Market. It's only a demo and it doesn't work on all phones. Also it runs very slow even with my phone overclocked. As I understand, even the high end phones have difficulty running it. I wasn't able to get past the title screen. Though I was able to watch the intros for the games.There is no sound either.

Nevertheless, this shows the possibility of our phones one day being able to run Nintendo DS games. According to Tiger King, it'll be a while before it's fully optimized. Until then, all we can do is drool over the demo.

BTW: This app will only be on the Android Market for a limited time. 

Here are a few screenshots (lol Professor Layton fan here):
