Java Games On PPC

Is there any possibility of playing java games made for nokia on ppc?
I've tried with Esmertec Jbed and intent java on my htc touch but to no avail.
It either fails to install or it installs and fail to load.
Was wondering if it's possible to change or alter some parameters in the manifest to enable it to be played on ppc?
Can any expert please advice?
I've attached the game with which i've been trying.

good read

Read. And tried all the java midlet managers there but unable to play this game. Understand that it may not be possible to play every game available.
However, I thought there may be other ways around it so i posted.
Thx anyway..

Windows Mobile Games

The Only Good Racing Graphics Wise Games are Raging Thunder and PGR with devices like i900 Diamond Toshiba G900 LG KS20 you would expect to have Games that have good graphics and sfx the only games are java graphics are okay but sfx crap are there no game developers that want to make games for windows mobile ?
RPG Game Number 1 hands put down is ASPyre Call of Duty but thats pretty old and most Windows mobile dont have multiplayer either via bt or wifi expect for mophun emulated games i Tried it on HTC Gene vs HP Ipaq on Carmegeddon that was pretty cool Graphics are a bit rough so are the details but hay its fun and isnt that the point of playing a game ?

Hi

wm 6.5 games are dead?

what is wrong with windows mobile, nobody is porting new games or what??
example:
-Asphalt 5
-Rally Master Pro
-rancing thunder
this games are for symbian/android why windows mobile doenst have??? is dead?

no they are not dead... for my opinion there is much more software for business available on WM 6.5 than for android, but maybe there are less new games on WM.
and i think you only have to get to cool sites then you can get lots of games
cheers, stephan1

yes i know they are lots of games, but low quality 2d, bad graphics, like java game...

There are significantly less "good" games (good meaning modern looking) for Windows Mobile than there is for Android and iPhone, but there are reasons for it. Windows 6.5 still runs on the Windows CE platform and as such most games developed for Windows Mobile must also be developed for legacy Windows CE devices (to keep a broad market and reduce complaints). Windows Phone 7 would fix that problem by changing the framework and forcing the higher requirements to run the software. The second problem is that currently (and possibly never again) Windows Mobile does not have the market share that iPhone and Andorid have. As such, when EA want to make mobile games, they will make their own version for the iPhone and then hire a third-party to make a smaller, vastly inferior version for Windows Mobile simply because it's not cost-effective to dedicate their own resources towards a product that won't sell much. This is compounded by the fact that Windows Mobile is an easier platform to pirate on.
That said, there are tons of great games for Windows Mobile if graphics are not what you're looking for. Would I love to see the REAL Sims 3 on my Windows Mobile phone? Yes... but I do love making all of my iPhone weilding friends jealous when I whip out Smartgear and play any Genesis, NES, Gameboy, etc game that I want.

Games try these
Tower Defense : Review
Flight Commander : Review
Xtrakt Download --- Review
Experiment 13 Download --- Review
Electopia Download ( Only Demo is available )
and yes there are significantly less games for WM compared to the iPhone.. Game developers like Gameloft , Glu Mobile and EA Mobile are making a killing on the iPhone App Store.. why would they spend more on a platform that is hard to build on ( blame WM fragmentation for that )

Moved as not software release.

Porting iphone monopoly on HD2?

Hi and sorry for my english,
Can we port the iphone monopoly on windows mobile HD2? because i saw on the internet this article of microsoft:
Porting the Amplitude Application from the iPhone to a Windows Mobile Device – a Case Study
Did any xdadevelopers have already port iphone apps on windows mobile?

not that i know of.
probably not.

If you mean EA Games Monopoly Here & Now, it's already been done, had it on my phone for a while.

but it's not a direct port, i've played some WM games also available on iphone, and the WM versions are always different in some way.
