Question Emulation Games that control easy w/ x50v?

Out of the current emulators that run (well) on the x50v, I was just curious as to which games you all run on yours that aren't too difficult to play? The buttons on my x50 are just a tad small for my big hands so I know there will be many emulated games that aren't very playable.

I would assume more rpg games would be playable than say shooters or racers (or even some platformers). Also, are there any emulators that make use of the touchpad (other than for virtual buttons)?

Thanks for the input.

most emulators come with onscreen buttons as an option. The only problem is you dont get feedback from pushing it, and you can only poke one at a time. Not fun.

Thats the main reason I've stayed away from emulation thus far. I'm just getting tired of playing the few good games there are for our axims over and over and want something new. Figured emulation would be good since I have a bunch of gba games that I enjoy playing in addition to many psx games.

ScummVM was MADE for the pocketPC as far as I'm concerned.

Nothing controls better in emulation than the monkey island games. end of story .

Now if only someone could get the VGA mouse parser sierra games emulated, I would be in heaven. Completely.

I play mostly SNES puzzle games, and some shooters with Tala's PocketSNES build.. Puzzlers are easy to play, since it's usually the directional buttons plus usually one other button.. try Bust-A-Move.. also shooters are easy to play since there is an auto-fire option, and all you need to do is move the ship around..

CastCE is another option.

It emulates an Atari ST very well (I have like 100+ games, so far they all worked perfectly). Remind me some fond memories You'll need the ROM of the system, and some games to run it. Both can be found on the www if you search well.

And it uses the touchscreen to emulate the mouse, of course.
