Frodo, C64 emulator for Symbian, updated with accelerometer support

Here’s something for the older folks among our readers, who at the same time own a Symbian S60-powered smartphone. A new version of the Commodore C64 emulator, Frodo, for S60 3rd Edition has been released.

Frodo 1.5 is better than ever, and now includes support for accelerometers in selected phones like the Nokia (NYSE: NOK) N95, N95 8GB, N82, N96 and others. As a result, when playing some C64 classic titles, you can move your phone around to simulate a joystick or steering wheel. In addition, there’s also an on-screen keyboard and vibration support included in the mix.

Aside from the S60 3rd edition, Frodo is also available for other platforms — including S60 1st and 2nd edition, Series 80 and UIQ. A short demo video follows after the jump, and more information is available from the official website.
