zzt on mobile devices
Is there any way to play zzt on cellphones? If so, which cellphones would you recommend (the cheaper the better). I just want to have zzt on the go!

There's been talk of porting DOSBox to the iPhone. No official announcements, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone ported it, given the number of existing emulators, and the fact that the iPhone is more or less just a small computer (probably easier to port to).
But no port exists yet, and the iPhone is rather pricey once you figure in the required 2-year contract with AT&T. Definitely possible, though.

maybe ask in this thread if such a port is possible: http://zzt.org/fora/viewtopic ... 09&start=0
I think it's set to notify c99koder by email if you respond to it so you may get a reply.

Everything that runs on the iPhone runs on the iPod Touch which is the same thing sans phone.Quantum P. wrote:There's been talk of porting DOSBox to the iPhone.

I run it on an EEEPC via Dosbox. It'd run fine on the early 7" models too. I'd love it on a phone though, even if you could only play games you loaded onto it (IE no editor). It'd be an ideal game for phones' small joysticks given the 4 main direction buttons and clicking the button to shoot (in the last direction moved).
