[ALL DAY]

I would love for nothing more than the iPhone to be the controller and be able to play NES on the TV. That would be amazing!

as the awesomeness continues

Meh, seems kinda pointless to me...

This is a great find.

What I'm after is the full iPhone output through a video cable so I can see what I'm listening to in the car on the in-dash screen. ATM it only plays videos so its really lame.

I would like the video out to be more like the PSP and output everything not just videos.

Is there is an plugin or whatever to do this? If so, where is it?, or do I have to wait for these devs to make it?

This Looks Fake-

1. Why is he pushing the gas opposite side?
2. the gas pedal also Lights up with ur fingerprint when PUSHED. wheres that? Since its just a video out it should show everything, no?
and most importantly...
3. The game doesnt even start on a ROLL.. its starts at a dead stop.


In fact theres no loading of anything related to the game,no menu, levelbike selections-

looks like he's watching a video not actually playing.

Actually, here ya go.

I would have a hard time believing anything Erica does in the iPhone scene would be faked. "He" has been messing with this stuff since pretty much the beginning of the iPhone.

Considering that, I'd find it hard to believe if it really WAS fake, and the video would was released with the intention of being a hoax and knowing such, would have the gas on the wrong side, and other simple things people have pointed out.

^ Erica's a woman, lol.

[jabregousmc]

so if the gas is hardwired down...what about the punch? he never once tried punchin the guy on the other motorcycle (even though his thumb was on the screen the whole time?) weird.

[helitx]

so, what equipment (cables, etc.) do you need to do this? or for that matter to play any videos from an iphone on a tv?

Just the regular A/V cables. iPhones already can output to TV music and videos, they just made it so their app can also output to TV. Like these (I'm sure you can find cheaper generic kind elsewhere, I just went quickly to the apple store)

I'm sorry. This looks fake to me too.

We'll tell you as soon as you grow up and stop putting "First" in threads like a Sophomore in highschool.

Nice edit. Stop putting "First" in threads.

Oh, I was wondering why he wasn't hitting the guy, they're just focusing on driveability for now. Pretty cool tho, I need to get me one of those video cables.

Yes, a well-known developer for the iPhone with a number of top-seller apps made a fake video of him working with Erika (one of the most influential people in the iPhone modding community) showing a test application he compiled to see if the TV-out function which only worked with the ipod.app works on apps of his own creation JUST to get a rise out of people.

You and everyone else calling this a fake is an idiot. Developers like him shouldn't even need to prove themselves to skeptics like you, he's awesome enough just getting the thing running.

Here's a quote from him on another forum he posts in (SomethingAwful if anyone cares):

Here's a video of it.

We get about 20 frames a sec, give or take. Right now, no touch events are registering, so we hard wired the game to have the gas down. But the tilt is 1 to 1. Makes the iPhone a hell of a game controller.
