Those pacman stickers=my new wallpaper

I managed to get a free NES and SNES emulator working on my phone and got another application that allowed me to connect my wiimote and play games with it. I tried mario kart and star fox because they are troublemakers and star fox got hosed as level 1 was starting, but mario kart played fine. the sound was a bit off which can almost be expected but that was overshadowed by the fact I was able to use my wii classic controller! I was playing mario kart and the wife walked in the room and was like "wtf?" she wants a new droid so bad! (she has a droid 1, I THINK you might be able to do this with that phone too, not sure)

I am going out of state for a week or so and I find myself excited to look at thrift stores and flea markets that I don't normally have access to. Does anyone else get excited at the prospect of "untaapped" sources of games? I can't wait!

So, I am wondering if anyone could help me out here. I have finally got smartphone fever, the old flip-up POS I have been toting around just isnt cutting it anymore. My tax return is due today, and I plan on getting myself one of those new fangled droid x's at my local verizon dealer (or wal-mart if the price is better there, supposedly its $148.99 there). Anyways, I have seen ALOT of emulation on these touch screen phones, and in my opinion, its garbage, basically a novelty, and just inadequate for a real gamer in my opinion.
What I want is a way to hook up an actual gamepad (Playstation 2 type, mini usb port) to my phone and play with that. I understand that supposedly I can link a spare PS3 gamepad via bluetooth to my phone, and that sounds awesome, it would really make boring moments fly by. I would still prefer to use a corded gamepad.
Does anyone know if there are stable/working emulators that offer this kind of ability?

well, i only collect loose, but the only reaction I have seen when they see my stuff is interest. Usually puts a smile on their face.

I feel obligated to post these links. This game needs more recognition!
And more entertaining and telling of the games scare factor, this video.
He is playing the game while talking on skype with a couple of friends who are also playing it.

I finally got ahold of a copy of Eternal Darkness a week or so ago, I cannot wait to play it.

UPDATE. I went to a thrift store this morning and whats that in the "showcase" glass case???? A large plastic tub with a piece of tape on the side that says "ATARI 7800 + 19 GAMES $50.00" I tested it on a TV they had in the back and played Berzerk! SOLD. It also came with 6 controllers!
So, now I have 1 complete system, one busted RF system, 4 of the long paddles, 2 of the short fat paddles, and two of the square ones with the longer joysticks! What crazy freakin luck! I am updating my for sale/trade thread with some of this stuff. I think I will hang on to a few paddles but the others are up for trade/sale. Also, if anyone wants my busted one I'll let it go for very cheap or if anyone wants to trade some low $ game for it that would do too.
Games that came with it are:
Berzerk
Pac-man
Bowling
Megamania
Combat
E.T.
Missile Command
Video Olympics
Pole Position 2
Pitfall
Centipede
Haunted House
Defender
Video Pinball
Donkey Kong x 2
Home Run
Carnival
Mrs. Pac-man
Also, thanks for the quick and informative replies to my thread, I am honestly surprised how noobie friendly this forum is.

This sign was made by a buddy of mines' ex-wife. He told me to burn it, but I figure someone else might think it is cool. I don't know what kind of paint was used, but its on some kind of board that looks made just for paintings. A one of a kind item. Very nice.

Do you have a photo of motherboard top with shielding removed?
That way someone should be able to tell you how much trouble fixing the RF will be.
Do I just have to remove the big top shield to get that shot?
-
Crap.
Well, what is it worth for sale as a parts or future modded system??? Think anyone would buy or trade for this stuff??
I HAD been thinking of getting that longhorn mod and a power cord, and mailing it back to my dad with a copy of Galaga (his favorite old atari game) and some other carts..... Hrrrm....

sure thing! I will post it as soon as I get home.

Hello all, I am kinda new to the site. (mostly lurked, but my faith in the DigitalPress forums has been eroding....)
Anyways, I have a 7800 that was originally my fathers' but he mailed it along with a handful of games and two 7800 paddles to me after I got into video game collecting. It is in great shape, looks fantastic for its age. My dad either lost or just forgot to send the power/av cables with it, and it really would not have mattered since the RF thingy got ripped out or broken off the back of the console. I have looked into getting it repaired or modded (longhorn mod looks awesome!) but the price is just prohibitive for a part of my collection that I really would not play very much and is more of a sentimental piece to me. So, I am asking for a bit of advice from the community as far as what I should do with this puppy.
It means alot to me, but as it is now its a pretty paper weight and not much use for gaming.
I am very much an amateur with electronics and not confident at all in my skills past very basic soldering.
What are my options for getting this thing playable again? What would you guys/gals do?
Are there replacement RF connectors that I could solder back to the board so I could play again once I got a power adapter for it?
I would like to either sell it for what I could get for it, sell the paddles or trade this stuff, or find a busted up 7800 I could use for parts. I feel bad for the poor thing. It just wants to be played!

I once made the mistake of having a weekend ruined with Bayou Billy.
I really like both Double Dragon and Super Dodgeball on the NES.
