Continuing on with Google’s somewhat constant pulling of emulators off the Android Market, another one has just been yanked the other day which some people will arguably say was the best SNES emulator out for Android, Snes9X. All is not lost though.
Earlier in September you may remember Engadget and other sites, such as ourselves, reporting on a DIY project that had someone streaming Wii games to their Android tablet, an Asus Transformer to be exact.
