Is using an emulator on an Android device really newsworthy?
Android has emulators? Big whoop. The only "runs" on wear thing that was really that newsworthy was minecraft. [video=youtube;-Jd3bVSPJok]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Jd3bVSPJok[/video]
this is dumb
[quote=article]may very well sell some people to buying a watch that runs Android Wear[/quote] it's possible to get an android tablet for like the same price if somebody's looking for games android wear basically is a hands-free version of google now and an extension of the notifications system anybody getting it with expectations for much more is going to be disappointed
Just as surprising as a "[Device] can run DooM! Wow!"
So you cant actually wear it at the same time as playing it? Whats the point? Why not get a controller with buttons that cant hold the smartphone and plug it into the USB port? You got a bigger screen, and it is probably cheaper too if you get a Moto G for about 170 dollars? You can probably even run an SNES emulator on it

Android Wear essentially is android with a pretty UI, you can install any APK and it'll work like it's an android phone so really anything you throw at it will "work"
