DraStic

I found this cool video of this guy who got a DS emulator (NdsForDroid, so you know it sucks) to run on an Android Wear watch. Here's the link to an article about it- http://phandroid.com/2015/09/21/you-can ... tch-video/
Pretty cool, huh? I wonder if you could do this with DraStic...

Someone needs to make an Android Wear device with a bunch of tiny physical gamepad buttons. Something that resembles one of those old 80s calculator watches.

I wonder how much work has to be done to allow apps to work on Android Wear. I don't think we're going to do it for DraStic any time soon even if it is easy, because I don't think people would be very happy with that purchase.

I'm pretty sure you'd have to do a little hacking wizardry in order to get an app like that running.
Apparently the guy's really good at it, cause he's also successfully ran Minecraft PE, Doom, and Windows 95 on Android Watch. If you ever add Android Watch support to DraStic, you'll definitely want to recruit him

Are you sure there's much to it? In what way is Android Wear really different from any other Android device with a low resolution screen?

its basically just for bragging rights at this point until you get to go holowatch

Hey you know what would be cool? An app for Android Wear that emulated those old Nelsonic Game Watches. Anyone remember those?

Or for those Dick Tracy wannabes for that matter.

Neptune Pine

Its a full android phone in a watch... add a BT controller and there you go.
Tombe fair though they are $313.00 to $450.00 to buy and they only have a SD S4 A5 dual core chipset so expensive and not great for drastic but for a nes emulator it is a fine watch....... if you really really want to do that.

Their next device looks much much more promising though. A wearable phone with screens that can connect to it to show content.
