Did the rules change to allow running code not bundled with the application or did this slip through Apple's review process?

- wmf 17y agoSounds like Apple made an exception since NES games probably aren't much of a threat to the App Store or iPhone security.
- thristian 17y agoOne of the first iPhone jail-break systems depended on a vulnerability in Safari's TIFF loader, and TIFF files aren't supposed to contain any executable code at all. Why would NES games be any different?
- stcredzero 17y agoUgh. Why would any software be different? Please Google "buffer overflow."
- windsurfer 17y agoI certainly think NES games are a threat. Think of all the successful games on the iphone. A huge percentage of those could run on a NES, or at least dumbed down to run on one.
- aaronbrethorst 17y agoSounds like this slipped through the cracks. The SDK ToS are very explicit about executable code, and very strictly prohibit anything along those lines. On that note, I'm buying it now while I can.
