The Super Mario Bros. drag and drop LUA hack
With LUA scripting included in the latest version of NES emulator FCEUX, Rusted Logic blogger Xkeeper has woven some black magic into Super Mario that gives you full keyboard/mouse control over your surroundings.
No word on when they'll let loose the scripts to the rest of us, but Xkeeper's got more LUA hacks hanging out around YouTube.

That's pretty intense... Perhaps the script will be available by the time I figure out how to build FCEUX on OS X.

I hope someone ports this to iPhone. Touch screen NES games! Of course, people would have to script specific games, but still. iPhone is terrrrible in the virtual d-pad department. Touch screen additions would be fantastic.

You could try asking some of the devs for help. Worst case scenario, maybe something like WINE?
But wow, I can't believe this got onto BB. That's pretty crazy... just means I have to put more work into polishing this and making it the best it can be.
(And yeah, seeing it on other platforms would be really neat; somebody mentioned the Wii, and that would most definitely be very, very cool)
