:One of the older emulators. Fixed low resolution (176x220) and compatibility, no handler app support.
;J2ME-Loader
:This is currently the highest-compatibility J2ME emulator available. Converts *.jar files offline using its own resources, easily . Easily launches both 2D & 3D apps. Samsung & Nokia Api implemented. Supports different keyboard layouts and customization. It is highly accurate, with the right frame rate for each game, as well as vibration. Has slightly improved performance through hardware acceleration, but games won't run too fast. Runs almost every Nokia game, even ones that don't work with KEmulator or FreeJ2ME, but fails with Sony Ericsson 3D engine (mascot capsule), due to the fact that the mascot capsule is almost impossible to port. This is common with most of other emulators as well.
;Java J2ME Runner
:Old tool, launches Java Applications on Android using native library. Apps have to be converted first, using [http://www.netmite.com/android/srv/2.0/getapk.php Netmite Website]. Overall 2D stability is acceptable, but 3D support almost does not work. Different types of keyboard & screen stics are included. Unfortunately, often experiences troubles with *jar conversion.
==N-Gage <small>(Nokia)</small>==
Originally a joint Nintendo-Nokia cellphone handheld hybrid project slated for 2005, Nintendo backed away from the project (and its plans for NES/Game Boy ports for mobile were repurposed for their Virtual Engine project). Nokia continued the project on their own anyways and released it on October 7, 2005, for <abbr title="$377.10 in 2018 money">$299</abbr> as the most powerful handheld of its time, that is up until the DS and PSP came along and ended Nokia's hopes at dominating the handheld gaming market. It had an ARM920T CPU at 104 MHz.
However, while gaining support through GBA/PS1 ports (including the only English version of the JP-only Xanadu series until 2016) and a few original exclusives, the thing suffered from huge design flaws, from the button layout to the display and cell phone functionality.
Has a revision called the QDwhich was unveiled on April 14, 2004, with an ARM9E CPU. ROM dumps of N-Gage games are available.
