I'm really a newbie when it comes to the N900 and maemo 5. I saw a video of a N900 playing mario. How do I do that? What apps should I place in my N900 and how do I get them?

those games use emulators to play the ROMS. You have to install some of the emulators from the extras, testing or devs repositories. a quick search of the threads will give you the info you need.

emulators = software that plays roms (what you install)
ROMs = the games
you can use google to find ROMs for specific games (that you own already, ofc)

I installed the vgba, tried the pokemon, and it works. Is there a snes emulator or just the NES?
