Indeed. Which is very lame. Cause it was a good video.
I mean, it showed how good n64 does on the xperia play, and convinced me to buy one in the near future..

Eh, the only thing it really brings to the table over other phones is the gamepad, and really, if you're stuck on AT&T, just get an Atrix and use the onscreen controls, or hookup a Wiimote to it. The hardware on the Xperia Play is hardly anything impressive; in fact, the only thing it offers over last year's X10 is a gamepad and an extra 128MB of RAM. The Atrix has a Tegra 2, and some quick tests have already shown it may be more powerful than the new iPad (and assuming it uses roughly the same hardware, the eventual iPhone 4G).

I dont understand the wii remote thing. Im guessing the emulators allow you to connect to them using blue tooth and play the games using them. The problem is how would you hold both the screen in front of you and the wii remote, you would need at least 3 hands and would people seriously carry a wii remote with there phone where ever they go, seems kind of a pain to me. Xperia play does seem very interesting but the problem I see with it is there is no L2 and R2 buttons, just L1 and R1. This would cause problems with some psx games. Similar problem to psp not having L2 and R2 for its psx classics games.

It's real for the reason you yourself just stated. The Xperia can run the N64 emulator and thus can play N64 games, thus it's not fake.

Well, there is an N64 emulator for Android, so I would think it can.

This alone makes this the best phone ever. I wish I could upgrade from my Blackberry...

Yeah, the Wiimote connects to the phone via Bluetooth, and ideally you'd have the phone propped up or set down in a way that you could see the screen clearly without holding the device. For on-the-go gaming, if you don't want to carry some sort of Bluetooth control device, there's still the on-screen controls, or for a racing game, using the tilt function and maybe the onscreen gas/brake buttons. Certainly not as ideal as a setup with integrated physical controls, but then, the only phone like that right now was only released recently, and with hardware that was starting to become outclassed by this time last year.

Lol, not any more.

Edit: Whoops, they yanked the PS emulator not the N64 emu. Sorry. Still newsworthy though. I wonder if Nints will get the N64 emu pulled?
