Clearly the 770 is not designed to be a gaming device; the hardware buttons are just not made for it.

The 770 is a physically small computer; an experiment to discover what we do with it, and how with learn to live with the limitations and how to stretch beyond those limitations.

With respect to gaming - because the 770 is a linux PC, whatever games you can run on a 200MHz desktop PC you may have a stab at running on the 770.

Geekdoc and Tak have made good progress with getting MAME onto 770 - see the Gaming forum. Seems like the 770 MAME is restricted to the simpler games (graphics < DS)

There is an emulator for the Atari ST by fpp; graphics for Atari games... probably are equivalent to DS. Maybe. But the DS is dedicated to games; probably a good idea to have a DS if you want to play lots of games.

I'm considering thinking about porting VICE (commodore 64 emulator) - but I haven't thought of a single really really good game I'd want to play... Obviously I love paradroid, uridium etc but can't see a real reason.

I'm also considering porting UltraFCE NES - purely for the Elite port for that box.

I ported the linux version of the windows remake of Dungeon Master/Chaos Strikes back to the 770; this is a fantastic (98% in the magazines of the time) old Atari game that plays beautifully on the 770.

I would suggest that the Nokia 770 is great for casual gaming... but it is not a gaming device.
