It does, actually. It's just both impossibly slow and completely out of the Zune's reach.

I played the first level of Super Mario Brothers 3 all the way through on the Zune. It took a while, but I did it.

It depends on how fast the processor is. The Tegra chip will probably make no difference since emulators are purely software.

"Processors in all versions of the Zune device are similar enough to be considered virtually identical. However, the processor in the Zune 4, 8, and 80 runs at 399 MHz, and the processor in the Zune 30 runs at 524 MHz. This difference gives the new series of Zune devices more battery life."

It sounds like the emulator is not usable for any one, but on the Zune 4, 8 and 80 it has got to be even more impractical.

A new processor would probably do the trick buuuut they might underclock it to save battery life because we all know each new mp3 player has just got to have longer battery life... right?

All the current ZuneHD info is just speculation. Nothings been confirmed at all.

It really is a shame how slowly this runs. It would be very interesting, to say the least.

Maybe someone will figure out how to get a NES emulator to run at decent speeds in the future.

Cool

Then there's the solution. Focus on the 30 gig Zune, let it show the full power of the darkside of emulation! Muhahaha!

Right? Everybody says its impractical, there must be a way. Or maybe a converter, that converts that emulated game into a Zune based game?

Probably not. There can still be some quality games created for the Zune, one just has to think more creatively in pushing the boundaries.

Wow, you seem to know a lot about emulation! You should work on the program.

You know, you're right! I've never worked on a xna program or emulation program in my life, but if I just *believe*... I-CAN-DO-IT.

Ok, my life's ambition is to make that emulator work for the 30 gig zune!
