That is one hell of an emulator!
Don't usually use them much but I will check this one out.

Well worth checking out.  If you use this on a tablet (or on OUYA if it becomes available), you can hook it up to the TV and essentially have a bunch of consoles to play on your TV.

This would be perfect for OUYA! Until then I will try it on my tablet.

Seems that is the formula that keeps on getting used again and again nowadays.

Yep, very sad indeed.

There's a new platformer for Android that seems like a pretty good clone of Super Mario Bros.  It is called Awesome Land and you can find it in Google Play.  I understand it is also available on iOS (can someone who uses iTunes verify?).
