There are games available for download for the N900 in the Maemo 5 garage.

Most of the games that have been put up for OS2008 should be portable to the N900. The OS2008 games are listed here. There are about 100 games on this list.

Flash Games

As the N900 supports Flash 9 and has a hardware keyboard, many flash games should just work
