Lenovo i909: includes NES emulator and snap-on controller

If you thought that playing NES games on your iPhone was impressive, wait until you get a load at what Lenovo's latest mobile phone model has to offer. The Lenovo i909 cellphone includes an on board NES emulator, complete with its own snap on controller.

Taking a look at the image we have, the phone really looks like a modified version of a classic GameBoy handheld. While Sony Ericsson released similar models with built-in emulators, this setup looks quite compact enough to fit easily into your pocket.

Don't worry if you think this is just another novelty phone, however. The i909 comes with the standard features of today's cellphones, which include a 2.4-inch TFT display, 2-megapixel camera, microSD memory card slot, as well as an mp3 and video player.

Now here's the catch: it will only be available in China. So people who are interested in getting their hands on one will probably have to import one through eBay or a similar online purchasing system. Hopefully, local phone manufacturers can take a page out of this model and deliver something similar for us.
