Is it just me, or are these 'phone MAME' builds a complete waste of time? Interesting from a technical standpoint, but totally not worth it from the age of the source code they use, and the platform it's on.
When will people finally outgrow the smartphone fad? Aside from sending/receiving calls (e.g. the actual design principal of a mobile phone), they are just pointless, expensive, poor quality computing devices with no future and are obsolete after 2 weeks. If it wasn't for today's youth continually buying them there would be no mobile telecommunications companies left out there to keep ripping people off with 1995-standard download rates (compared to modern broadband which is generally unlimited or 20GB+). I'm shocked how they still even charge for texts (SMS etc), considering there have been completely free PC messaging programs like MSN for almost 2 decades, then you also have vendor lock-in (e.g. giving free or discounted texts only to people who are using the same company, or the inability to switch companies without a stupid contract or $$$$). The sooner everyone throws them out for good, the better.
Same with the Apple 'i' fads, the iPad is an all-in-one system, yet it completely lacks the most needed item for computing, a decent input device (yet, people insist on putting games on it, then complain that the emulator is uncontrollable so they blame the devs for not making it iPad/iPhone compatible from the beginning).
Now... why can't I run brand new PS3 games at full speed on an iPhone, people? Whilst running them in full 1080p despite having a 3 inch screen with about 20% of the total pixels available.
