MOOKIE!

Have you finished the quadruple OT Pens win over the Caps in NHL 96 yet?

Thats freakin sweet.

I love RBI baseball, its a part of my childhood, add to it Ice Hockey on Nintendo and you have a great 1-2 punch.

Actually, truth be told, Ice Hockey is still played on my NES Emulator on computer, there i admitted it !!!

My NES Emulator on my Pocket PC allows me to play Blades of Steel, Tecmo Super Bowl, and Baseball Stars on the bus on the way to work while everyone else sits there half dead. Except this morning I played a little Megaman.

In the past few days though I've taken the Bubby Brister led Steelers to a 14-2 record and a 31-10 super bowl win over the Redskins. My super bowl celebration was short lived however, as the fat guy next to me kept putting his elbow in my side everytime he moved.

What emulator are you using that runs on a pocket PC?
What kind of controller can you use with the pocket PC also?

As if I don't waste enough of my life playing Super Tecmo on the computer, if I can go portable it would be very bad.

When's the first annual LGP Super Tecmo Bowl tournament?

I don't think I've ever lost to a human playing Tecmo Super Bowl.

I'm just that damn good.

It's on.

Its called PocketNester. I just use the buttons on the bottom of my handheld.

I have the Dell Axim X30

Excellent, thanks!

Does that run regular roms that work with the other emulators?

I have the dell also. And apparently a lot less free time now that I know about pocketnester.

I have an emulated version of RBI Baseball that somebody went in and updated all of the teams with the current players.

My controller is complete garbage thought and makes it impossible to enjoy because I can't play defense with it. I wish there was a NES controller with a USB connector on it.

They definitely make them.

by **Vanbiesbrouck** on Fri Apr 14, 2006 4:26 pm

I've got one. I tried finding the site I bought it from but it's bookmarked at work, I'll drop it here once I'm back on that computer again.

by **Admin** on Fri Apr 14, 2006 4:32 pm

Was it http://www.retrousb.com/nintendo.html ? Seems a bit pricey.

by **Vanbiesbrouck** on Fri Apr 14, 2006 4:36 pm

Yup, that'd be it.

They're pricy, but for the work that you have to go through to make one that works by serial, it's well worth it. I tried that before I bought this ready made one, and the trouble wasn't worth the payoff. There was great lag time and needed an external power jack.

This one powers through USB and all the electronics to convert the USB signal are internal to the controller. I haven't opened the guy up yet to have a look at how they did it, but I'm guess it's got to be a mess inside.

Thanks for the link. I figured they make them. That price is a little steep, but it would be worth it if you play a lot of games of NES on your PC I think.

I could try to dig up that link to the updated RBI if anyone wants it.

Yep. Regular roms, just like nesticle or any other win32 nes emulator for your pc.

I updated the rosters on Tecmo superbowl with the current players, but it sucked because it limits the name to 8 characters I think and my QB was Ben Rthlsbgr so I went back to the old rosters.

If you open the ROMs in a hex editor you can edit rosters in a few games.

by **Vanbiesbrouck** on Fri Apr 14, 2006 5:18 pm

Rthlsbgr is still a better name than QB Eagles

Have any of you guys tried the online play function of any of the emulators? Forget fantasy football if we could play Tecmo reliably online!
