Epic news indeed for Apple's iPhone, which will use its multitouch and accelerometer technology to support gaming. Companies like EA and Sega are already on board, some of the first titles include Super Monkey Ball (nice) and Spore (HOLY -).

And yet Spore was denied for the Wii because it wasn't a 'serious' console. Right.
Good idea using the accelerometer though.

You can "jailbreak" the iTouch, however, there's also a chance of "bricking" it as well (aka making it unusable ever again.
Also, Apple is going to be releasing a SDK for the iTouch, and then you'll be able to download those apps through iTunes. My bro said it would be a few months, but I'm willing to wait.

So I finally caved and jailbroke my ipod Touch. SO worth it.
www.ipodtouchmaster.com
www.modmyifone.com
www.ipodtouchfans.com
Either one of those will show you how to jailbreak your ipod.
And whaddya know, once you have your ipod jailbroken, you can download a GBA emulator and using cuteFTP (which is actually fairly easy), you can put ROMs on there. I've got both Golden Sun games on there now.
The only complaint I have is that the frame skip and sound is so crappy, I'm wondering if it's worth even bothering. I recently uninstalled the most recent version of the gba emulator upon hearing that the very first version was the best, but I've yet to install the first version. I'll have to do that sometime.
But yep, here we go. Itouch gaming...begin!

How else would you move around? The game doesn't support a touch screen.

yeah, it has a transparent overlay that look just like the GBA buttons, while the game is in the center of the screen. I'll take a screenshot once I get it to work (someday. Hah!)
