The iPad. Oh, the iPad. Recently launched and already hacked but what do you show off first? Emulation.

The video above is showing off a jailbroken iPad playing two N64 games, Super Smash Bros. and Super Mario 64. It looks good. Great, almost, if the sound wasn’t so, well, emulated. Sound has always been a problem for emulators. and then there’s the control issue which just looks painful, but who cares? You can play N64 games on your brand new iPad! Now, when your friends laugh at you for having one, you can show them that.

I still wish I had one.

Of course I am referring to Windows 7 which was released this last Thursday much to my glee and satisfaction. And to help celebrate, Apple released a new ad attacking it, which is kinda funny, but you may want to cover your ears when it comes to Windows ME. God I hated ME. Well not me ME, but Windows ME. Anyway…

Apple has to spend their money on something, I guess.

Multi-touch surfaces have been around for a little while, and still has a way to go before being used by everyone for everyday needs, but already I can see no other greater use for such a device other than to play DnD on it.

Obviously still a work in progress, this demo comes to us courtesy of the team Surfacescapes at the Entertainment Technology Center at Carnegie Mellon University, and it shows off a lot the potential fun that could be had by anyone interested enough. Of course you’d have to get pass the price of such a table, but it’d be totally worth it. Totally.
