MS-Dos emulator for Android

[Silverwing]

Is there an MS-DOS emulator for android 2.0? If not, will there ever be? I pretty much want to play old dos shareware games, etc. I know the hardware is good enough, but can it be done programming-wise?

It will be portet soon i think.

Ahh - what exactly does that emulator do? Does it emulate DOS or certain game engines, or both?

Thanks for the reply =)

Take That ^^

"ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!"

I was looking more in the line of Commander Keen, Doom, Wolfenstein, Prince of Persia, Lost Vikings...heck the original Diablo, too. You know, old games that ran on Dos. (Did the original Diablo run on Dos?)

Yea i know what you want,
but ScummVM is the only thing i can remember!

The original Diablo was a windows game.

You are right, 1996. That's not even that long ago.

Here's link for the Android port of ScummVM and it states in the FAQ link that Droid 2.0 is not supported, but 1.6 is (I believe that would mean Eris is in but MotoDroid need to wait a bit)
