I've been reading a lot of the posts on the net concerning the recently released N-Gage and have noticed a lot of negative feelings towards it.....well, to each his own....

Now for all who are bias and are like me and actually have one and like it....i'm going to ask the question which is probably on lots of ppls minds.....

Does anyone know of there's a MAME emulator for the N-Gage?? I've searched long and hard on the web and still can't find one.....i currently have goboy and think its the best!!! thanks to wildpalm for making a great emulator! but unfortunately, gameboy can never compare to MAME.....

To make life a little easier for those who are in the great quest that i'm in, here's some info i've found to help you on your way:

1) i've heard from various technical sources at Nokia and they inform me that the n-gage is VERY capable of running MAME.

2) i've tried the 2 java mame emulators out there and they don't install on the n-gage.

3) i've tried the 2 symbian operating system emulators for mame (emame) made for the p800 and Nokia communicator....cannot install either. The closest i got was installing emame for the communicator, but i keep getting an error message saying not enough memory to install....i have a 128mb card installed to i'm guessing its trying to install itslelf on the system memory which is definatley not enough. Anyone know how to get past this?

Well thats what i've found out so far....anyone else with any information pls feel free to add it....and if anybody has any info on how to get MAME on the N-Gage, pls share!!!!

-end of line.
