Jonathan Zdziarski, author of iPhone Forensics, has released a Nintendo emulator for the iPhone and iPod touch.

Kick it old school with games for the original Nintendo Entertainment System. Nescaline allows you to play games made for NES, including home brew games, five of which are included, or use Nescaline's download feature to add games to your library from any remote URL. Nescaline is not crippled and will play many games from various developers and manufacturers, but it is the responsibility of the user to determine whether they are licensed to play a particular game. Many games have been released as freeware, while some manufacturers have since released copyright for their games.

Features:
- Multitouch support; use the directional pad and A+B or many other combinations together.
- Works with many zapper-enabled games. Simply touch the screen where you want to shoot.
- Save-state allows you to save games in progress and later restore them to the state they were in when you left the game.
- Supports both landscape and portrait mode, in both full screen or original resolution
- Enter Game Genie codes to enable cheats for your favorite games.
- Alternate frame skip, palette, and advanced settings.

You can purchase Nescaline from the App Store for $6.99.
