Playing Galaga on my Motorolla Droid

I was just sitting around trying to decide what to do and decided to fire up Galaga on my Motorola DROID X Android Phone using Nestoid. If you haven't tried out Nestoid on the Droid I highly recommend it. Unfortunately it is not available on the iPhone. If it were available I'd be playing some online NES action with Brian. We'll figure out something one of these days. I'm dying to play Double Dragon with him via the internet. I think I'm going to have to figure out a way to do that.

Use your Wiimote on your Computer and Droid

I was looking for a USB NES controller one day and a Facebook friend recommend I try and use my Wiimote as a controller while I waited to purchase a USB version. I did some Google searching and came across PieGlove. It's a simple program that allows you to use your built bluetooth or a dongled to control your Wiimote. It tooke me a few tries but I got it working. If you have trouble at first, try a different version. In Windows 7 64bit I had to use the older version, which was strange.

After successfully getting PieGlove to work, I had a fantastic idea. If someone made PieGlove, then certainly there must be an NES addict out there who made a driver for my Droid X. And I was right! After a quick search in the apps store, I found a WiiMote controller app (Wiimote controller by C.C.P. Crea@ions). I loaded it up and it worked perfectly with NEStoid (which is a GREAT emulator but the on screen controls can be annoying)
