Game Console Emulators
With support for DVI video out over HDMI, USB game controller hosting, SD card "cartridge" storage, and built-in speaker or external audio, Fruit Jam is a terrific little video game console emulation machine. Here are some guides to get you going with Famicom/Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, Game Boy, Sega Master System, Game Gear and others.
A Note on Emulators:
The emulators noted are ports of existing open source projects to the Fruit Jam hardware.
Sometimes emulators may not run a classic game well or refuse entirely. This may be due to the program using non-standard methods or the emulator author perhaps did not have their code emulate the platform 100%. It's a part of the emulator community to know that there could be issues with a particular emulator or rom.
If you find an issue, consider submitting an issue or even a pull request to the emulator author.
It is hoped that as more Fruit Jam boards get out into the wild that authors can have "hardware in hand" and test their emulators for compatibility.
