Because it has to emulate the hardware...

I tried it, slow to death. Emulator is not efficency

The hardware in the N800 could do it. There are two problems, though. The emulator needs optimization, and we still don't have a proper driver for the video hardware.

Some guys implemented the NES hardware on a single chip, built a little handheld and licensed 99 NES games

Looks like this cute little thing can be had for about $30-$40.
