There is nothing like actually owning the cart or disk and using the real controller, pad or stick with the proper game.
Sometimes however, this is not possible, either the game is hard to find, or its too much effort to unpack, setup and boot the system the game you want is on. This is when emulation is handy.
if you are Reading this blog then you don't need to be told what this is and how it works, suffice is to say that it allows the playing of retro games without he hardware to play them on (at least not eh original intended hardware).
I am just adding this article to mention a new emulator i have found for android OS ICS and honeycomb. its called SNES Droid and it allows snes and nes Roms to be played on your tablet (in my case a Xoom) or phone.
It could not be simpler, you just install, copy the Roms of games you own (legal reasons) into the ROM folder.
It plays really well at the correct speed, very few dropped frames and with great audio.
I really like this and may write more on it latter, check out the screen shots bellow.
