It’s Friday, so let’s look at something fun and kind of useless.

YouTube user Hacking Jules has Nintendo 64 and PlayStation Portable emulators running on an Android Wear smartwatch — specifically the original LG G-Watch, as originally reported by Android Police via Toy Box. Of course, it’s super-hard to play any of those complicated games on the watch’s tiny screen and simple interface, but it certainly looks cool.

Here’s Nintendo 64 classics Super Mario 64 and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

And now here’s the PSP’s Monster Hunter Freedom.

Really, it’s impressive he can control these games at all. Maybe some day we really can play our favorite games on our wrist.
