Hi All,
I Just got a 2210 and Im looking for some old school games like double dragon and some good command and conquer style games that allow multi player with other PPCs

Any suggestions

Age of Empires sounds like a game you would be interested in.

I have just installed pocket nester but I tell you trying to find roms for this is near impossible

Pocketnester is a very good NES emulator that works well on the 2215. If you are into the Atari 2600 (very old school), PocketVCS is also a good emulator. But you are on you own to try to find ROMs for these emulators. It is against forum rules to discuss where to download ROMs.

Old school, huh? Like Lode Runner?

If you like Age of Empires, you might also enjoy
Warfare, Inc. and BugLord.

I love PocketNester (which is a NES emulator) with all of the games I got with it. I just recently downloaded CeGG (Sega Master System Emulator) and used it to play Hang On (which is a old school motor cycle game). Man I'm loving this. I also installed PocketVCS (an Atari 2600 emulator). Between all of the emulators that I have, my favorite games are:

Hang On (SMS)
Asteroids (Atari)
Defender (Atari)
Mike Tyson's Punch Out (NES)
Mario Brothers (NES)

Not sure about multiplayer, but have you tried Argentum, from Ionside?

Warlords II is out for now for pocketPCs as well.. Its not exactly C&C style, but it is a strategy game and a blast to play.

Though its turn-based instead of real time, check out Pocket War at Handango. Just like the old mainframe game, Empire.

Well he did say "old school"

imported_Magicmonger · 12-03-03, 11:34 PM

Man I loved asteroids, I grew up on this game at the local stop-n-go when it was in the arcade style machines.

Loved Tyson's Punch Out and Defender also.

Those were the days...

Well I have been playing alot of games with Pocket NES , Its very cool , alot of old school games to choose from.
Hey I didnt know there was an emu for atari 2600 I had one of those when I was a kid .
I got myself a 1GB CF card to store all these games on as the 2210 was a little stretched for free space after a few games and apps were loaded

whitelyt · 12-04-03, 08:41 AM

There are several good emulators out there. The trick is finding games for them.

You could try MorphGear it emulates NES, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, SNES, Genesis, Game Gear, Master System, and Turbo Grafix 16. I used PocketSNES for awhile but Morphgear is just as good. You have to pay $20 each for Game Gear and both of the Gameboys but the others work for free. I can tell you the Game Gear emu is worth the money. Sonic rocks with full speed and sound on my 2215.
