iPhone NES Emulator

Even retro gaming pushes the limits of technology. The iPhone isn’t supposed to support third-party client apps, much less third-party games. That’s why this open-source iPhone NES emulator is just so damn cool. It even takes advantage of the iPhone’s large multitouchscreen to include a classic NES joypad. It still has control issues and lacks audio, but it’s a promising little work in progress.

Guild Wars: Eye of the North Trailer

Guild Wars: Eye of North, the expansion that will bridge Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2, arrives August 31. Pre-ordering players can join the preview weekend on August 24-26. Longtime players might recognize the official acronym for this expansion: GW:EN. Gwen, the charming little girl you meet at the start of Guild Wars, returns as a tough teen in Eye of the North.

Needless to say, I will not be available for speaking engagements on preview weekend. While we await that sneak peek, check out this in-game trailer narrated by Gwen herself.
