Fly Mobile can play Nintendo games!!

Fly Mobile’s new MC100 handset – a device supporting not only Java games, but also the NES/SNES/Gameboy Nintendo consoles games!
Disappointingly it doesn’t do the 3D shizzle that we came to love on the various latter consoles (N64 and Wiiiiiiiii obviously not supported), but, there are a TON of good Nintendo classics rendered in just the 2 dimensions.
The handset has keys at the top of the device (see pic), and a wealth of other buttons for button-mashing-fests. Additional features include a sound chip by Yamaha for the audio, and usual variety of expected features (e.g. camera).
There are a couple of downsides though – first is the price – $270 isn’t cheap in anyone’s language – and secondly is the lack of clarity on licensing from Nintendo to play the games – the way the PR reads, it appears to relate to the usage of Nintendo ROMs (which are plentiful on the interweb), rather than any official deal.
That being the case, it could be quite likely that Nintendo will be flexing it’s legal bicep muscle, and cracking Fly Mobile’s sales plan like a walnut. Shame, a good bit of ‘tendo always makes me happy!
