We now learn there's a project underway that has developed a console emulator for... er... digital cameras. The motivation is clear: why use your LCD viewfinder for taking holiday snaps when you can take on a host of virtual villains instead?

Two emulators are currently available: Mamed (based on the well-established Mame (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) and Messd (derived from Multi Emulator Super System). Both applications run under cameras' Digita OS, which is built into a wide range of cameras and runs either on a PowerPC processor or a MIPS chip. Cameras using Digita include models from Kodak and Minolta, and HP's C500 Photosmart.
