FOR ALL PALMONE USERS...not clie...
Has anyone purchased one of these game cards from Palmone???

They look kinda cool, and it seems like you get more games for the price you pay. If anyone has purchased these cards, please share any info, and your thoughts, on them. I am considering the Sega Classics Card, and the Rayman Game Card. The only downside i see is having a pocket full of cards...unless you get one of those Palm Cases that have at least 2 memory card slots to store them in. I have no problem paying the price for the game cards, but i would like to get some opinions first before i dive into it. If you've purchased any of them, please include the card you have, and a little review/info on it. THANKS!

My NX80v has no sd expansion, only MS and CF. Is there a way to get the SD games onto MS?

I have four different ones... Just beware if you have a CLIE, you can't use them... I HAD a Tungsten E, but due to hardware failures, I returned it and got a CLIE TJ27 (which I am loving), but Secure Digital doesn't work with Memory Stick... The games can't be copied as far as I am aware...
As for a review, here are the cards that I have:
1. Games Essential - Sim City, Ricochet, Chess/Checkers/Backgammon, Atum, Billiards... This is a very good card for $30... I loved the fact that Sim City could be played in Hi-Res on my Tungsten E (the reason that I bought the card, the other games are nice though). Each of these games are available to purchase except for the OS 5 compatible version of Sim City... tried contacting the developers and the manufacturer of the card but received no response from them...
2. PalmPak Game Card - Sim City (non OS 5 version), Zap 2016, Chess/Checkers/backgammon, pool, etc... - This is a very good card, not sure if you can buy it anymore... Had bought when I used my m500...
3. PopCap Games - Bejeweled, Mummy Maze, Atomica, Seven Seas, can't remember the other one - This is a great pack... The price is fair as this is what the set costs from AstraWare...
4. Sega Classics... Sonic The HedgeHog, Colums, etc. This is a fair game card, just never played it much...
Hope this helps...

...the SD card with the games on it is for PALMONE pdas ONLY...I am sure you can find the games on the card at palmgear.com, and put those on your MS or CF...good luck. (as bh77a said though, you can only get the OS5 SimCity on that card...)

Yes it helps. I do have a clie right now, but I am getting a Palm T3 in a couple weeks...so I might get a game card from PalmOne. I never got into SIM CITY...i guess it's pretty popular...Thanks for the info bh77a!
