Maybe its a dumb question, but i see a lot of emulators apps in java out there...is there no way of using that in our phones?

I have a N-Gage and made some tests with a GBA emulator in java...nothing, of course...

But i dont get it...it was made in java....shouldnt it work in our java phones?
I know i was aiming too high with gba, but what about genesis, game gear or so?

Do you mean a java emulator for computer?

1) a computer has much higher solution than your phone
2) Your phone run Java, but MIDP, which is a cut-downed version of Java
3) Your phone doesn't have enought power to run that Java

On the phone, it uses j2me (java 2 mobile edition). A different version altogether and as such, it would not work.
