It would not play those games, but a ton of others. Some played fine, but ironically, the older games that are smooth in Jarcade were slooow on the N900 (even overclocked). The reason that Neo Geo and even older games were slow is due to the lack of proper video ram on the N900. Shame

Not sure if the dev works on anything now, but he is was over at the Maemo Talk forums. The emulator literally had all the functionality of a full MAME (because it was a full MAME and rom set for early 2010), but worked on the N900. Amazing app, but bogged down by a frumpy OS and odd video ram decisions by Nokia.

I still use my N900, but mainly for MAME and the games that work well. Was my last device with Tmo.

As can be appreciated, some games were not practical (cd games, HD games, and proprietary chipped 3D games).
