Nostredamus, eat your maggot-filled desiccating heart out. A week ago we foretold that emulation on the PS3 was not only going to be a cakewalk, but the system's raw power and massive storage space would allow it to run Mame, NES (FCEUltra) and any host of ready-made Linux emulators. Not to my surprise at all, here are videos of Mame and Nintendo running on the PlayStation 3. Want to try this at home? The gory details are posted up and down this forum .
In this stage, the software can only be enjoyed by hardcore tinkerers and l33t hax0rz. But nobody wants to hit the command line to run their games, not even hackers. My next prediction is this: in six months or less you'll see a very polished distro floating around that even your grandmother can install. Perhaps more than a handful of investors will also have PS3's by then.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Screw 'em. I guess I figured out why the PS3 was delayed so often. They couldn't think of enough ways to screw their customer base over, so they spent all that time thinking up more things.
Linux guys, do your worst.
Oh well, back to the Wii.
and they (gamespot)are complaining about the sound that you get when moving your pointer in TP.
