This is a Game Boy Advance emulator demoed on the Nokia N8. The game on the screen is Tekken Advance, complete with touch screen mapped buttons. It lags a little but it looks kinda fun. Perhaps it will be faster on the 701/808?

that’s GPSP Symbian. It works perfect on Belle, though i have had save state issues on .904. I’ve played through Castlevania: Area of Sorrow and playing Harmony of Dissonance now.
Just make sure you have a legit gba bios and you’re golden.
Oh ya, you gotta have hacked firmware, too since it’s an unsigned apps.
Extremely recommended emulator.
This is the problem of Symbian… we have no apps. This emulator is almost 1 year old, it’s fun and I played a lot of games with it so far. But on Symbian we are stuck with this, while on Android there are already Nintendo DS emulators.
Eh, i gotta disagree with that. The problem is lack of developers. Qt gives the tools to code any Java based application to run on a Symbian S^3 device. I’d love to to port DoDonpachi from iOS to Belle, but I don’t know how to write in C++, Java or Qt. It takes a long time to learn these languages and use effectively.
We also have a SNES emulator for by summeli written in Qt and tete is a Genesis/Megadrive emulator for S60 just begging to get ported.
That’s not to say EA and Gameloft haven’t done a great job writing/porting for S^3. But if most people are too damn cheap to spend $2 and a damn fine game like Dungeon Hunter 2 HD, they aren’t going to pursue our market any longer.
In summation (not aimed at you, poiman. General exclamation) either find time to learn to program for Symbian or take a chance, loosen up on your pocket and buy some f**kin’ games on Nokia Store!!
oh man ive got to get this!

best emulator i’ve been using this since the first version and it’s solid
Used to play some GBA on my N82… Old times.
it should have been good if someone port the psone emulator of android to symbian.symbian seriously lacks some good games.
can i download this emulator on my n8 using the official belle firmware?
I would like to see an N64 emu for Symbian, too bad all I can do is talk instead of develop….
anyone got any links
Summeli.fi, the blog of the developer.

not to forget psone emulator.if psone emulator is available it should have solved the problem absence of good games for symbian

In my experience….
EmuMaster on Maemo6x murders every other emulator app in existence.
this is really cool, and better than nothing.. but man, most of these GBA games are a pixelly mess.
We should have better than this really.. its 2012! not 2005!
MameXM can also do a lot of games and was proted to symbian.. would love to see a proper NEO-GEO emu with multi touch controls
