I'm guessing the refresh rate would be too slow to be playable. The closest thing I saw was someone running SMB1 NES on a Kindle emulator on their PC. The games that are already out there for the Kindle are sluggish anyway, so I cringe to think of Zelda: Link's Awakening running on it.

I think you're better off running it on a smart phone.

Here's the story on that NES emulator:

I think it's entirely possible with the refreshrate hacked down (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=142848). Plus, there's already Java-based gameboy emulators ready to be ported into a Kindlet. However, using the kindle as a portable gaming system is extremely awkward, even with a keyboard.
