    I tried some isos but only the ones mentioned worked, metal slug 2 opens to the controls screen but the background is black and buttons you touch or move get stuck for a while, does this means anything? like slow loading or it just won't run?
    Won't run. If it's going to work, it'll do it pretty much straight away as I understand. If it can't even get through the intro without slowing down/crashing, there is next to no chance of the actual game (which is naturally far more complex than the intro) being playable. As it stands, the compatibility is very low, but it's a very new project. The developers estimate it'll be a few years before there is decent compatibility, possibly shorter if lots of people are able to chip in.

    No. No one has even starting working on ARM for PS2 whatsoever.
    It has higher requirements than a Wii emulator (and yes, Wii for ARM is being worked on).

    Right now, on ARM devices, the cutting edge is: Dreamcast, Nintendo DS and Playstation Portable. These will be playable on current devices.

    The next emulator that will be available after those is Wii (Dolphin). Needs better chips though. Currently testing is being done on Exynos5.

    Can I ran the images of UMD-Video (.iso) ?
    Yes.

    Just compiled latest from git and it will appear on the website shortly.

    A lot more games should be compatible now. Pacman World Championship is working fine here.

    I'm also making a special one for BB10 devices.

    So when you bold "current" does that mean the Playbook also? Or would PB fall out of current range because of its age and specs (I dont really pay much attention to what the current "latest and greatest" is in tablet tech)? Been hoping for DC and DS on my PB

    I believe PB falls within "current" in terms of ARM processors, it's still reasonably decent compared to other tablets. (It was pretty high spec when it launched I believe).

    Yes, when I bold 'current' I mean Playbook as well. Dreamcast, DS and PSP will be perfectly playable on the Playbook and Dev Alpha. It could take up to 2 years for the emulators to be developed to a high enough standard though.
    Dual-core 1GHz A9 is fine for that generation of consoles.

    For DS you'll want to port this project: http://sourceforge.net/p/nds4droid/c...cb7f40ba/tree/
    For DC, most of the development is behind closed doors for now. This one will take the longest.

    I was gonna try to convert the nds4android .apk but the BB compatibility check said there are some serious incompatibilities and I am kinda lost, considering I know nothing about developing or porting. But at least I tried.

    Don't bother converting any Android emulators -- they all use native code.
    Porting involves recompiling

    Yes, updates are still being built for PB and are available on the PPSSPP website, and it can also be built manually from the git, for the absolute latest changes.

    It would be nice if we could make a list of the psp games that work fine enough on a playbook.
