Anyway to get Mario Kart n64 on my Q9c? - Motorola Q Forum

I would kill for this game. I LOVE Mario Kart.

I doubt the Q would be powerful enough to emulate the N64.

Hmm... it seems like a simple enough racing game? Maybe the graphics are too intense...?

That would be nuts. I don't think it would be fast enough to support even the old n64 graphics but I could definitely be wrong. Keep us updated if you find a way!

its not possible. the processor and gpu on the phone is not powerful enough to run n64 games.. I mean q9c barely handles sega genesis games so to jump from 16bit to 64bit gaming is crazy lol

are you kidding? the screen is refreshed constantly because everything on the screen is changing as the kart moves. We're lucky we can get Doom running on Q's, and even that runs slow as hell from what I've read, and remember that came out in 1993:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doom_%28video_game%29

So our Q's can't even keep up with PCs from 1993. It'll never run a game from a console that came out in 1996.

Our Q's are equivalent to late 80's PCs.

Unfortunately, the link to the instructions was a page at qusers, which I guess has gone the way of the dodo . . . I'll try to post instructions later, or maybe you can find that page if you plug in that url in the Wayback Machine.

Edit: Speaking of the Wayback Machine, it worked:
