We reported about the GameBoy emulator, which will be released in couple of days, a few days back. Now we came accross this XDA thread, where Silverlight dev. Nudua is building a NES emulator called VNesLight for Windows Phone 7. He has already ported popular Java NES emulator VNes to Silverlight 4 and is taking it a step further to make it work on Windows phone as well.
The developer has managed to run NES games at around 27-29 FPS which is pretty good since there is an enforced 30 FPS limit. The UI stuff is still to be done. Public beta is expected to be available this week. We'll keep you posted on this.
Nostalgia, again. I can't wait to get my hands on Super mario. Angry Birds? Get off my lawn, kids!

Known bugs:*Does not run at full speed, but getting near, results may vary on different devices. (kinda feels like running on PAL)*The virtual controller can be terrible, there is no strafeing etc., will be fixed.*Sound has been disabled for now, because of the speed issue.*Things like savestates are not done yet, but it does work well with the Mango multitasking.*Other random bugs may occur.
