How to install Nintendo and play with tactical feedback on the iPhone

August 23, 2007

jonnkidsUnlike the original version, the NES emulator for the iPhone works great now —except for the sound. There’s still one big problem: the lack of tactile feedback on the buttons. Natetrue, the creator of iBrickr, came up with an ingenious hardware patch: a transparent vinyl layer cut like the gamepad buttons.[...] Thanks to jonnkids for providing this nice story on Digg (more than 25Diggs).

Sevenduolux: Just pay IMMR to do it the correct way! Look at the Chairman of the Board for Immersion Corp. Then Google him. Check out his history. IMMR Should be in the Iphone VERY so. VibeTonz and TouchSense will be felt!!!

zwaldowski: Why is this not in the Apple section? That’s why I blocked it.

theurbaninja: hahahahaha, really… you have got to be kidding me. playing nintendo games on a touchscreen. seriously? good luck with that.

superjamie: Hahaha, all you fanboys went on and on about how good touchscreens are, now you’re going to buy an extension to get your tactile response back?

Maddox was right, iPhones really are lame.

cmysites: I’ll just wait until they make a hack to load Linux on the iphone, until then I’ll stick with a real gameboy.

Max … Out!

famousdave: I will buy a iphone the day they come out with Texas Holdem.

thoughttrain: If i only had an iPhone…..

hcaulfield: oh god, i thought the iphone stories were over for now………….buried for charging 600 bucks for a fucking piece of plastic that isnt even as good as my 100 dollar piece of plastic

dagamer34: Guys, GBA Micro is $60 bucks on eBay. Get that instead. Don’t toy with my precious Nintendo memories with silly hacks like this. Buried.

gamecast: burried until they get a working copy of bioshock on it.

StoneLox: …or you could use a gameboy

MalDON: iBrickr? Sounds safe to use…

purty707: i don’t have an iPhone.

drouk1556: I don’t own an iPhone so I don’t know how/if this would work, but remember those labyrinth mazes you could tilt to avoid holes and reach an “exit”? Can that be done on an iPhone?

Shiftgood: dugg for being the first iPhone story i actually think its pretty cool. good design.


OS X on the iPod in September!

August 23, 2007

obeezyMore CoverFlow, more album art, a better iPhoto ‘08 interface. So far, the same old click wheel seems to be involved (so no phone-less iPhone yet), but in general, a flashier interface than the old scrolling text screens we’re used to.[...] Thanks to obeezy for providing this nice story on Digg (more than 41Diggs).

Apple giving next-gen iPod Touch the OS X, um, touch?

August 23, 2007

obeezySwell, now that your skeptic sensors are functioning, here are the latest whispers surrounding the up and coming iPod(s).[...] Thanks to obeezy for providing this nice story on Digg (more than 1005Diggs).

What other users say about this:

mmilian: This speculation is more than a month old:

http://bigthawt.com/2007/07/24/next-ipod/

And by “more than a month,” I mean it’s probably been predicted time and time again since the only iPhone was a Cisco branded product.

Lavarock: dugg just for title

Waldbaums: Expect to see one of these babies after Apple’s “free ipod back 2 school deal’s” are over. (Sept. 16)

cowboystyle: This is pretty cool, I love OS X…

gjunkie: The only thing that sounds kind of strange is why would Apple give the iPod OS X if all it’s gonna do is play music and videos. If they’re going as far as giving it OS X, I hope it does so much more.

persept: Engadget’s stories always get dugg up, instead of the original article from 9to5mac. Yet nobody complains about blog spam? Sometimes I just don’t understand…

plexxer: I find it hard to believe Apple will be able to shove the touchscreen, battery and hard drive in a package that will be just as thin as the current gen iPods. Would you be willing to give up some pocket real estate for a bigger screen?

griz: Sweet! I’ll cash in on my NEWIPOD PPX shares on Popsci.com.

Loving my AAPL shares too!!!

in2deep: Looks good..interesting!

mywhitenoise: Whoops, didn’t mean to comment on this story.

Graemebru: what do people here think about the Archos 605?

Comes out soon.. Sept 1 :)

rjcarr: The next ipod will have a touch screen and be running a micro version of OSX. Guess what? So does the iPhone. Why would they do anything else? If the iPhone works, don’t break it, just pull out the phone. You don’t have to be a mac insider to know how this story will end.

shad0w: 9to5mac pulled there story about new ipods.

inkhead: Why is anyone doubting this? Steve Jobs said on Stage in front of 10,000+ people that the NEXT iPods WOULD BE OS X based.
Geeze.

MScrip: Can you hold a touch iPod with one hand and navigate with your thumb? I love the click wheel, with a flick of your thumb you can scroll through hundreds of songs.

Every video I see of the iPhone, it looks like it takes 2 hands to scroll through your songs.
