How about C Dogs, OpenLieroX and OpenBor.
OpenBor would be alot of fun since there are a ton of games created for it. These games were ported to n900-like devices (dingo, pandora etc...) so it shouldn't be too hard.
Heck, most games from here could be ported without too much work...

Anybody up for organizing a "sprint" of porting games? make a vote on relevant games based on ease of port and relevance to device (f.e., FPS is not really possible on the n900). And setup a week or two per game to port.

Not really a game as such, but I would like to see the Platinum Arts Sandbox Gamemaker Cube2 engine running on the N900.
Sandbox Game maker
I have been playing with this games creator recently and it is sooooo simple yet can push some very nice graphics too.
The engine is aimed as an educational tool for both kids and adults alike and is so very easy to pick up that it could spawn a whole bunch of user created games for Maemo.
If anyone can get the games maker to run even if there are performance issues, I would like to see it.

Did Secret Maryo Chronicles ever get ported? It looks like a great game. Open Sonic the Hedgehog would be another good game. Would anyone consider porting these games?

Not interested in games that are half story... if I want to watch a story, I'll put in a movie. I'm in it for gameplay. Long plotline breaks make me want to scream.
My list, from the top of my head (I'm sure I'll think of more when I'm awake):
> Paradroid
> Boulderdash
> Descent D2X
Yeah, the last one would definitely require a bluetooth double-analog-stick to play properly... but the first two could be made to play well with a stylus. All of 'em should be quite playable on the N900's hardware.
Oh - an implementation of Robotron would be cool to play with a stylus (yeah, I now there isn't an open-source one, yet).
Happy New Year!

This seems to mean that the ARM9 processor's around 1/3 as "powerful" as an equivalent x86 processor - it may differ depending on compiled options etc. however.
This could mean that games like nexuiz, even if ported, wouldn't work very well even OC'd.
My projects: BackupMenu - OS Backup & restore | Video: Flashing your n900(LiveCD)
My devices: N770 + 8GB SD card soldered internally, N900 with 8GB SD card + Custom OC(125-950 typically).
