Does anyone here own a Palm device? If so, does anyone play games on it? If so, what games do you play on it?

You're actually asking us what games we play in our palms? LOL

There is a very nice Coleco Emu for Palm OS 5.0 that I was pointed to a couple of weeks ago, as well as an NES Emu (but you have to pay for it). Also, you can download Sega games straight from Palm's website--you have to pay for these as well, but the demos are free. In order to play the games and install the software, you have to have a memory card expansion.

What kind of Palm do you have?

I just play the games that came with my Pocket PC, Jawbreaker (like Sega Swirl) and Solitaire. But I've been meaning to look for emus and stuff.

I have a Palm IIIxe using Palm OS 4.1. I mainly got this one because of the memory capacity (8MB), and price (I got it on closeout for $69). Color seemed to be an expensive luxury, and gaming is pretty much a bonus. I have some shareware versions of Blockout, Asteroids, Tetris, breakout, Galaxian, Bejeweled and Lemmings, which keeps me busy...
