I have a hp iPAQ 1935, and am debating between Pocket Nester and Pocket NES for my emulator. Which supports most ROMS, plays the best (on my Pocket PC since it's only 203 MHz), and is most stable? Thanks.

Pocket Nester.

Been using it with my 1935 for some time now and have had NO problems. Its great, speedy, and very responsive. (at one point holding down one of the 4-ways on the D-Pad and pushing the furthest left hardware button brought up the align screen app and it was very annoying; I have taught myself to get over that now and still play at top speed with no issues :D )

And I have tried many a rom and enjoy all of them.

Go with whichever one you choose to be the best, but trust me, the 1935 is plenty fast enough.

Which version of Pocket Nester do I get? The ARM version or the second ARM version, or the MIPS version or the second MIPS version.

You want ARM, not MIPS. Which ARM version, though, I don't know.

Get the ARM version. I don't know what the second option was.

What is the site again?

Theres the link to Pocket Nester. There are 2 ARM versions, and I have no clue which to get.

How screwed is that :(

I recommend Morphgear! It's better than the others mentioned and its free for NES, SNES and a whole bunch of others!

Get the ARM 2002 version.

I am a fan of Pocket Nester also :)

Pocket Nester rocks! I've been using v0.7 on my ipaq 1930 for several months, and it's never had a problem with any of the roms I've tried on it.... It's much smoother than NESCE, and I haven't tried morphgear...

Hmmm, the build date for 0.7 is 24th Oct 2003, I should check for a later version, I guess :mrgreen:

Craig.

I recommend Morphgear as well, it's not incredibly fast on my 1935, but it's full-speed playable with NES. However, it is NOT free, only the SNES and TurboGrafix modules run for free. The rest run with a 5-minute time limit, and cost $20 to purchase.

I got Pocket Nester running and it works great. I only have to ROMS, and it's hard a crap finding them (can't post where to get them on forums). Could anyone give me sites via AIM? My SN is Dms061286.
