NES cellphone goes on sale

June 13, 2007 in News comments 14

Who needs the Nintendo Wii's strictly at-home Virtual Console when you can flaunt about publicly with this swanky new mobile that also just so happens to emulate classic NES games? Actually, we like both!

Even if mobile phone gaming has never truly floated your boat, this little gizmo may pique your curiosity. Fresh out of Hong Kong, the Gionee S20 not only performs the usual cellphone duties, but doubles up as an emulator with the ability to play NES ROMs, and even comes with the tried-and-trusted NES button layout to make things as intuitive as possible.

    That cell phone looks pretty tight. I wouldn't mind having one. I could play Super Mario whenever I wanted with that thing.

    I'd totally get this assuming Nintendo doesn't sue and it actually works over here.

    This will be as successful as the NGage. iPhone...damn that looks tempting. I should have waited for it to come out instead of getting the Rizr last month.
