There isn't one. There are arrow keys included in the hardware keyboard instead.

And thats good how it is The dpad would not be compareable with a gba dpad, so arrow keys are the better solution.

but aren't the arrow keys placed on the wrong side of the keyboard (compared to gaming portables/controllers)?

but, as already said by joppu, mapping some of the keys on the left side as d-pad would work just as good

Close your eyes. Take the n900 in your hands and put the thumbs on the keyboard. Open your eyes and map the keys under your thumbs to the actions you need. That should do the trick.

Are you the developer of VGBA? That would be good news, especially a N900 version that works 100%. Are you including Scaling / Smoothing with OpenGL ES2 ? Thanks!

Edit: Yes, its him. Thanks for your great engagement, Marat!

I still do not know how to do hardware scaling on these new devices, but you are at least going to get accelerometer-based controls.

Who can help fms to find out how to scale (pixel doubling at least) for full screen gaming?
