With over 2 million downloads for their hugely popular games iGolf and iBowl, today, SGN has launched iBaseball, the third game in a series of Wii-like games for the iPhone.

Monster iPhone Tutorial (part 3: iPhone Game Emulators)

Categories: Apple, Applications, Games, Hack, internet, iphone, ipod | add this page to Mister Wong

iPhone MAME emulator MAME is strictly a non-profit project. Its main purpose is to be a reference to the inner workings of the emulated arcade machines. This is done both for educational purposes and for preservation purposes, in order to prevent many historical games from disappearing forever once the hardware they run on stops working. Of course, in order to preserve the games and demonstrate that the emulated behavior matches the original, you must also be able to actually play the games. This is considered a nice side effect, and is not MAME's primary focus. It is not our intention to infringe on any copyrights or patents on the original games. All of MAME's source code is either our own or freely available. To operate, the emulator requires images of the original ROMs, CDs, or hard disks from the arcade machines, which must be provided by the user. No portions of the original game code are included in the executable. Project Address: http://code.google.com/p/iphone-sdl-mame/ Roms: Look for Mame roms on the net. Zodttd psx4iphone, gpSPhone, snes4iphone, genesis4iphone, and OpenTTD.app can be found here. snes4iphone has been released to beta testers at ZodTTD.com.

iPod-iPhone Marketing could drive more revenue to Apple

Categories: Ads, Apple, Audio, Battery, Content, Corporate, Design, Games, Mobile Appz, Mobile Phone, Multimedia, Phone, accesories, music | add this page to Mister Wong

The ipod and the iphone have proven to be the most sucessful duo, the ipod has taken the portable music industry by storm and now the iPhone is doing the same thing for the mobile industry, but Apple is not cashing or taking advantages totally in the marketing arena. Here is the point: The marketing behind the ipod was and is still excellent, trendsetting, joyful and has done its job, put the ipod everywhere in an entertainming manner, everybody enjoys those well done ads, the music, the images, the strategy worked for the ipod. With the iphone, Apple has turned to the other side, showing what to do with your newly iphone. While this is a direct to your brain marketing, it is totally different from the ipod one. Good, the ipod and the iphone have received thousand of free TV exposure, people showing their favorite mp3 or smartphone to everybody and this represents a bigger than expected and unpaid marketing campaign. But hey, Where is the Yanqui's based iPod or iPhone? Or the David Ortiz fully loaded iPod? And there is where Apple is still sleeping, there is a bigger and more fanatic audience out there that is willing to have a Baseball ...

New ipod/iphone oriented online store launched

Categories: Apple, Audio, Battery, Business, Charger, Dock, Games, accesories, clothes | add this page to Mister Wong

It seems that each generation is defined in part by the medium through which they listened to their music. From records to tapes to CDs, each new audio source has provided vast improvements in sound quality and portability. Since the advent of the mp3 audio file, music no longer has to exist in the tangible realm. With the ability to transport thousands of songs in a package the size of a matchbook, the Apple iPod has taken the world of portable music by storm. Now that these miniature jukeboxes have become the standard for portable music, www.iPodMiniMall.com has launched to provide all the accessories necessary to make the most of these amazing little devices. The first complaint owners sometimes have of these mini music machines is that they can be fragile and either break or scratch easily. The obvious remedy to this issue is to keep the device securely housed in a form-fitting case. The site carries a host of cases for every model, from the ultra compact iPod shuffle to the formidable and powerful iPod video. These cases not only provide sturdy protection from bumps and scratches, but also allow the mechanism to be clipped or strapped to the body ...

The new ePSXe 1.6.0 version of Sony Playstation emulator for the iphgone was released

Categories: Apple, Application, Applications, Games, Hack | add this page to Mister Wong

ePSXe is a Sony Playstation emulator. It has a good compatibility rate and runs very fast. It is also very flexible as it uses a plugin system for sound and graphics and can also support original playstation controllers (using a special adaptor). I have only recently started to use ePSXe as I normally use Bleem, however I have found out that ePSXe has alot less glitches and is updated far more regularly so I have switched over completely. I thought long and hard over this tutorial as I knew it would be difficult to write as there are alot of options in ePSXe. Because of the amount of options I found that it is sometimes difficult to put the technical jargon into plain english but I think I have. I hope you like the results. Downloading You can find the latest version of ePSXe on it's homepage here. If you want a friendly frontend for ePSXe then get Epsxecutor from the ePSXe homepage as well. IMPORTANT! To get the emulator working you need a copy of the Playstation BIOS which you can get at the following link. There are 2 to look for... 1. SCPH7502.bin 2. SCPH1001.bin You will also need to download some plugins as well to ...

Slashgear.com: ID’s John Carmack considering iPhone games

Categories: Apple, Applications, Games | add this page to Mister Wong

It’s almost amusing how things work out sometimes. People have been trying to get Apple to work with developers to put games on their systems, and to date there is still a huge shortage of available games. However, hope is on the horizon for people wanting to play games on an Apple product, the ironic thing is that the platform isn’t OSX, but rather the iPhone/iPod Touch. John Carmack has added id to the list of companies committing themselves to the platform. I’ve only had my iPod Touch for a week or so (can you say late adopter?) and I can already imagine it as being one kick-ass gaming platform. While there aren’t exactly a lot of buttons to be found, I can still see massive potential for games of all different types. Apple really got things right with their whole iTunes distribution strategy. This was one of the things John Carmack noted when discussing id’s plans to develop games for the iPhone. The ability to distribute larger applications than the over-the-air limits and effectively market your title with more than a dozen character deck name, combined with the reasonable income split make this look like a very interesting market.
