Android’s Most Popular Game Emulators Pulled From Market

If you’ve got any of the popular “oid” game emulators, like Nesoid, Snesoid, N64oid or Gensoid, then you may want to make backups of them now and take care not to delete them.Image via Android-Apps.com

Google has removed them all from the Market, as well as revoking all developer rights from their creator, Yong Zhang. Since this isn’t the first time an emulator’s been pulled from the Android Market, it’s probably safe to say that anybody who has any game emulator already installed on their device should keep it there, or they may not be able to replace it later.

Yong’s now listed his entire *oid line of emulator apps, completely free, at SlideME for a two-week period to allow current users who’ve already purchased them to get a copy before it’s too late. If you were thinking of getting one of them and just hadn’t gotten around to it, now’s the time — they may not be there much longer.
