Going classic on Android Tablet
« on: May 02, 2013, 04:36:39 PM »
Few months back I've bought myself an Archos gamepad ( http://www.archos.com/products/themed/gamepad/index.html?country=us&lang=en#a ) running Android 4.1. After installing the MAME4droid-app and the adapted romset I was surprised how smooth the tablet was running the games and how easy it was with the analog controls on the tablet to play those classic games.
Today I finaly decided to buy the Dragon's Lair game for Android, just not 5€ in googles App-store. Man, this really rocks, almost original gameplay, very nice graphics and once again, with the analog controls a real pleasure to play. So today, once again, I've got transported back to the 80's and this with a modern high tech machine  ;)
God must love crazy people, he made so many of them!!

Amazing isn't it?   Wouldn't it be great to go back and give one of these to yourself back in 1983?  ;D
