Its pretty nifty, but there are some changes... First of all, its on my cell (LG 9900 enV, with a QWERTY keypad). This is awesome. It also saves progress, and lets you replay any stages again (complete with boss!). This is a big plus for the whole "game on cell phone" thing, and it beats the fuck out of Snake. The blue bomber moves alot slower than I remember. For instance, in quick mans stage, activating Flash mans power only lasts one freakin screen, due to mega mans new falling speed. Thankfully the lazers move ALOT slower and it can be done easily with no power what-so-ever, provided you never stop falling. No sound effects. This is lame, imo, really really lame. The music is complete though. But still, why no pew pew? No doors. You know the two boss doors? You just pass through them, no clickclickclick SCROLL clickclickclick. There is still a pause and scroll before the real boss room however. Still, I miss the sound. I remember as a kid hearing that sound and feeling like I accomplished something. I really sucked at megaman as a kid >_> Bosses are easier, quick man, for instance, took me one try, and flashman never once froze the screen. There was alot less movement as well, Quickman did alot of sitting in place while chucking boomerangs. Im kind of thankful, playing megaman in real time on a querty keyboard is rough, I cant imagine what i'd be like on the number pad of a regular cell. Ill post more as I progress. So far, 9 bucks well spent.
I think i've watched about 70% of the TAS's on this site... It's become one of the first sites I check daily for updates. I'm going to start posting more.

It is interesting how little things can contribute to the gaming experience.

This is a java game, isn't it? Most java-enabled cell phones can't play both bgm and sfx at the sme time. You can play all the meggerman games on your phone... there are nes emulators written in j2me... without sound, of course

Are there any good emulators for Windows Mobile? Having a whole library of ROMs on my PDA would kick ass.

So ive been messing with the phone... The thing that stinks about most "mainstream" phones is the inability to set your previously-owned content (ie, your own MP3's) as ringtones/alerts. I had to download what is basically a Version emulator, run it from my computer, and install custom ringtones/sounds from there. But, now that its all set up, its all drag and drop. Consequently, my Ringtone is the Megaman 2 Dr. Wily Castle 1/2, incoming text is Super Metroid Item Get. I also have some other ish on there, if I get sick of Megaman I have the Mario 1 "Overworld (Hurry!)" as a ringtone alt, and a bunch of other really really nerdy NES/SNES music. I had my wife call me from her new phone, mega man started playing, I grinned, she sighed.

When I picked up Easy Media Creator 9, it came with a program called Xingtone, that allows you to make your own ringtones, upload them to a server, then download them to your phone. If your phone can get text messages, and download audio files, it can use this program. I am currently using the radio mix from Portal as my ringer.

I started using goldwave on my mp3's and http://www.myxertones.com. I heard from a bunch of people its free, and after checking my bill incessently after the first DL, confirmed it IS free provided you get free picture messages. Its simple, upload MP3, enter phone number, hit send. Set as ringtone.

Are you talking about the Symbian version?

I use PocketNester / PocketNesterPlus for my treo 750 running windows mobile. It runs pretty much full speed and plays music fine (though i turn it off). Worked better on WM5, but it works on WM6 too (the only problem is that some of the setting pages don't scroll). This has basically fulfilled my childhood dream of having a portable NES :)

I have Sonic 1 on my phone. It took a lot of getting used to, but i can play somewhat OK on it. Since I can only have 2 of the down, left, right, and jump buttons ready to hit a at a moment's notice. Also your thumbs hurt after doing the later levels. Cool things are you can continue your game any time and pick from a stage select screen...
