WTF is zodiac wanting peoples to buy their emulators???? how can u ask money for emus??? r there any free ones??
:angry:




thank u
 
Yes, but its clear that he's pointing the blame at the zodiac (or more correctly, tapwave).
 
If the zodiac is as big a name as it seems to be then they likely have no choice because of licencing fees for official emmulations for the games you play. Open source/freeware that people work on for the simple joy of having isn't likely to cost anything.

The trade off is theirs might be a bit more "perfect" while we wait for coders to have enough free time to work on it.
 
Damn, no shut the hell up option. Why would you come here to bitch and moan about retail emulators on another system?

The emu's are not being released by Zodiac, they are emulators that already existed for PalmOS (which is also Zodiac's OS). The reason you have to pay money is simple; PalmOS doesn't have a very big freeware tradition, anything that's halfway decent (one or two exceptions) is shareware on PalmOS.

The emu's are not better either: NesEm (NES) is quite good but only supports about 300 games, Liberty (gameboy) didn't support sound (don't know if that changed) and Jeff (CaSTaway and XCade) gives us XCade for free because he likes us better ;)
