| I got the gameboy emulator installed and it runs the game (for 2 mins), but i cant get the controls set. I try to assign them and it doesnt do anything. Gnuboy CE.
Id like to buy the full version of this but i want to make sure ill be able to get the controls setup. I emailed the person who created this but have not heard back about purchasing a key. If anyone knows how i can go about getting this unlocked with a key, let me know. I dont mind paying for it, but if i cant get ahold of the person, how can i unlock it ? Id love to have this out of the demo mode so i can play games for more than 2 mins.
I also installed nesCE and it opens, i select a rom and i get a error 99 message. DOH!
I swear NOTHING i am trying to install and whatnot onto my 680e seems to be working right. Anyone else have experience with nesCE ? Why am i getting this error ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated :-)
Fingers crossed i start getting stuff to work on this palmtop, feel like im taking crazy pills here.

The controls for DarcNES are:
quit ... ESC
start ... return
select ... tab
up ... cursor up
down ... cursor down
left ... cursor left
right ... cursor right
B ... x
A ... z
Honestly, if you want something quick and easy to sink your teeth into, I'd give ScummVM a try and try out the free game downloads on their page
^That will be the quickest/easiest way to start enjoying the palmtop
Maybe also Nethack |

| It'll work with the following games:
https://www.scummvm.org/en/compatibility/0.7.1/
but try and only find ones that are green colored - so good or excellent
Basically, it Quote ScummVM allows you to play classic graphic point-and-click adventure games, text adventure games, and RPGs, as long as you already have the game data files.
It'll even run Kings quest, but only on versions 0.10.x or 1.2 and higher.
0.7.1 is the highest version for your Windows CE device |

| Correct.
Here's the "manual"

But I mean, I wasn't trying to get you to spend even more money [on another CF card], just was trying to find ideas for you to be able to enjoy these devices. |

| ^ I havnt even tried loading a game. It loads up the screen where you can pick the game/file and it gets all glitchy and eventually locks up the unit. :-( |

| You can’t use those versions for Kings Quest.
You can play it on your phone with ScummVM (it’s in Android PlayStore or Apple App Store)
Or on your Mac
But your jornada runs only with an older version of ScummVM which does not support kings quest |

| ^ ahh gotcha. I downloaded a few games and when i get the 512mb CF card for the 690 im gonna try them on that unit. I appreciate your help.
Im hoping i can get Kings Quest to run thru the PocketDOS, i saw screen shots of someone playing it on there 680 thru DOS. So fingers crossed.

| Yes the older version works ;-) that later one as i said just locked up the 680e.
I did find an email for the guy who made the Gnuboy emulator, so i emailed him. Hoping i can get a unlock key for it. Fingers crossed, but its been so long since he made this so im not holding my breath. Im hoping someone may have a code on here if the guy isnt supporting it anymore. It runs great... for 2 mins haha.
