I just tried this app and while it worked great on a couple of games that I tried, not having hardware buttons royally sucks. I was hell bent on getting a phone WITH a keyboard, but good luck finding a good (fast) phone with a good (non-flat) keyboard. (And no, the Droid and even the Droid 2's keyboard is atrocious).
I have been doing much better than expected with typing on my Droid X's touchscreen, and usually navigating is not that big of a deal... until it comes to stuff like gaming... this is where buttons are king.
When the hell is a phone-maker going to realize how many of us want a fast Android phone with a good hardware keyboard... AND good buttons for gaming. I see this as a HUGE untapped market. A modern N-Gage type of phone would be a big hit in my opinion.
Oh, and that Wiimote trick is rather pointless in my opinion... if you are somewhere where you can actually have a Wiimote handy, then chances are you could just play the game on either a Wii or a PC. I want these ROM games for when I am no where near a computer and the only thing I have with me is my phone. I am not going to be packing a Wiimote into my pocket just for this.

Hehe, very good point, re: Wiimote. You're hardly going to carry it with you... well, maybe some people would do that... but not many :)
I don't know why there's such aversion to hardware buttons! Damn Apple...
