Wing Commander Compatible With PocketPC Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Over at Crius King Graham found a DOS emulator called PocketDos. With mobile computers and PDAs easily surpassing the power of computers from a decade ago, it's no wonder people tried to get the original Wing Commanders to run on these. Their site advertising compatibility with a number of games from Elite to Space Quest to Wing Commander. You can download an evaluation copy or buy the full emulator for $39.95. I wonder about the controls though. I can see it being kind of difficult to move and do other things simultaneously with the on-screen keyboard. You can discuss this program at Crius here.

Official Wireless GBA Link Announced Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Nintendo has announced that they are teaming of with Motorola to produce a five player wireless adapter for the GBA and GBA SP. Right now no game supports more than four players, so perhaps that will change in the future. This'll certainly be big competition for the Triton Labs wireless link that was supposed to be coming out. This also takes away one of the advantages of the upcoming Nokia N-Gage (wireless gameplay). The N-Gage still has a variety of online game arenas however. The GBA could really use that. You can find the Yahoo article on this announcement here.
The 2.4GHz radio frequency (RF) chipset enables up to five players to play each other wirelessly, allowing for flexible, mobile game playing.
