Apple II emu? Waste of time?

[hiroziro]

Although I've searched the forums, I haven't seen much regarding an emu for the Apple II?

There were some great games for this thing for its time - Aztec, Swashbuckler, etc. does this appeal to anyone at all? or is an Apple II emu a waste of a good coders time?

I think any machine would be very interesting and fun to have emulated on the GP32.

After all, it's not really about high technology here; it's about classic gaming.

Neither the Apple ][, nor the Atari 800, nor even the Amiga represent high technology anymore.

It's about fun!


PS: Personally, I enjoy seeing how different versions of the same game turn out on all the machines. Any word on a more solid 2600 emulator?

I think an Apple II emulator would be an excellent idea

Indeed...a Apple II emulator would be most welcome.

I see theres a open source emulator for PalmOS here. Perhaps if one of the GP32 genius's we know exist is interested they might consider porting this.
Especially as Castaway is proof that porting PalmOS emulators can work wonders.

In my opinion I believe any emulator is a good idea. Not only does it help promote the GP32 more, it may open up technological windows of opportunity not seen before.

That would so cool to code with basic directly on the GP32
