In an interesting development for Emulation Fans, Nintendo have asked Crimson Fire to stop the publication of their Gameboy Emulator for the Tapwave Zodica gaming machine (based around Palm OS). While not directly affecting Symbian OS yet, the fact that Nintendo have a Patent on emulation could have repercussions over the whole principle of emulation. (Thanks to wshwe on the Forum for spotting this one)
Nintendo Patent Gameboy Emulation?
😱 all i can say is...OH CRAP!!😞 😡
I guess after reading the letter, Nintendo have no intention of licensing(sp) emulators.
Suck. Won't be long till WildPalm get the same letter I guess. Can they prosecute those of us who have already purchased an emulator? Surely not?
