So I, being a Poke-geek, decided to find what mobile devices I could run Pokemon on, and found some interesting (and working!) results. Ti-Boy 84 - http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/419/41990.html Yes, a Gameboy Emulator for the Ti-84 (and some 83's, though it has much less memory). Only the TI-84 SE has enough memory to barely fit Pokemon Red (the only Pokemon working so far), and I had to delete all unnecessary apps before installing it. It works well for being on a grayscale calculator, and the fact that the TI-84 and Gameboy share the same processor architecture helps a lot in terms of speed. Of course, the screen has a low resolution, but the emulator has zoom and sprite-following functions to help. It works too well in getting me through algebra.  Here's some pics of it in action:   Rockbox+Rockboy: Recently, I've replaced my iPod Video's default firmware with Rockbox, which is very cool and feature-full. Coincidentially, it came with Rockboy, a Gameboy+Color emulator. I guess I had to do it. It works very well, the sound is very choppy on color games, so I just choose to play with it mute. Along with the sound, the video is a bit choppy, but hey! It's Pokemon on the iPod. A very big battery-hog. It kills my battery even faster than playing videos.

Wow, that is awesome. :D I don't have any games on my calculator, not even "normal" games. |

You know, like Tetris and games that people are usually playing on their calculator. I never bothered to learn how to get them on there. |
