[QUOTE="DestinyWells, post: 10284114, member: 643777"] Can I put this game on another device? Yeah, you can try to copy it or use an emulator. But wait, do you have the original game's secret recipe (source code)? No? Well, that's a problem. The real answer is, it depends. Emulation can work, but it might be slow or buggy. It's not as awesome as playing it on the original. Here are the main things to think about: [I]how powerful is the other device? it's not just about speed, but also how it's built. do you have the game's secret recipe (source code) to make it work on the new device? if not, you'll have to do some fancy stuff. what can the new device do? Can you run your own stuff on it? does it have any helpful tools or libraries to make the game work? games are pretty picky about how they work in 3D. if the game and the new device don't speak the same 3D language, it's trouble. floating point what now? games like big numbers, but they use special math that's not just about adding. some old devices couldn't handle this math.[/I] Long story short, it's a bit like trying to fit a round peg into a square hole. You might need to get creative to make it work on a different system, and sometimes, it's just not worth the effort. [/QUOTE]
