Go out into the park to do some web surfing while enjoying the weather! Watch a movie in bed! You could do that sitting at your PC but would it be as enjoyable? The Pandora can't really do much my PC can't. However, it can do it everywhere, anytime.

The problem with embedded devices is that the hardware is not modular, you cannot exchange pices. So the drivers are buried somewhere in the system software. This encourages just publishing a big binary pile of shit instead of a well ordered operating system. I think it's a good sign that we are...

The Wiz is the classic gaming and emulator machine, of course. The iPhone is pretty shitty at that because it lacks the controls. However, it has an awesome exclusive library of little indie touchscreen games that you can't get on other devices. There are fresh ideas and gameplay concepts not...

It doesn't for me. With my Swedish IP, I can add that stuff to my shopping basket but I can't buy it because it then realizes that I entered a German address for my Paypal or credit card.

Scaling up 400x240 is not a good idea as the game only becomes really well playable at 640*480. It would make sense to invest some time into developing an alternative UI for high dpi devices, though. This would be useful on Pandora, N900, iPhone 4 etc. and even high res computer screens and HD...

It would be about as playable as on the iphone. So, no.

Of course! The thing has a completely different library of games with a lot of great exclusives! Personally, I hate Apple and their policies too much to get any of their devices but I sure as hell miss some of the great indie games.

That's probably Apple's fault... Damn, I'd love to get this pack but I can't buy it in Germany, probably because Quake is on the official state censorship list of games that are bad for children... Oh well, I got a few other great deals. Introversion collection for 5€! Even though the only...

Yeah, great hardware but I just don't trust those modified Androids...

Did you package it with the free graphics, music and sound effects? It would be very convenient for the average user to have that stuff in the PND already. Also, if you do any UI changes for mobile devices, please try to get them into the official codebase so that we can simply compile future...

Yeah, I remember you... Somewhat... Probably from over at Zodiacgamer, though.

The Homebrew channel does not infringe on any of their rights, so how could they go after it? This clearly does, it uses their trademark and copyrighted assets. Putting this in the official appstore would be rather dangerous, IMO. On the other hand, I love Super Mario War and I feel it should be...

Actually, it is much less dodgy IMO because it's legal in sane countries (which might not include the USA). There is nothing wrong with getting software from other machines to run on yours and you can make profit with that feature, as well. Obtaining the licenses for the software is then a...

If your lenticular lens is diagonally-aligned, you would have to look at the screen diagonally, which wouldn't make much sense, would it?

XBlockOut Not sure this even needs porting: http://www710.univ-lyon1.fr/ftp/xbl/xbl.html

Actually it's a completely different game and it came out in the same year (1989). I haven't played Welltris but from the descriptions I could find, BlockOut is probably much more fun. I loved playing it as a kid. B) We really need a 3DS version. :D

Seperate score categories only make sense if there are separate categories to win in, IMO. I'm all for another coding competition. IMO, it should be split into platforms and a select few categories per platform (original game/software, port of existing game/software, improved game/software)...

How will it accomplish NDS compatibility? Maybe that could be a hint?

Why not? We could ask Sir Clive Sinclair for his amazing technology: http://www.nvg.ntnu.no/sinclair/televisions/tv80.htm Actually, all NEC does is double the physical horizontal resolution. You seem to be right that they are the only ones doing it, though... (The 3DS does it, too. Are they...

But... Where on the touchscreen do you put the buttons? :o
