This isn’t exactly the “pure mobile news,” but it’s interesting nevertheless. The reason is that we’re not seeing that many companies switching from mobile to desktop — usually it’s the other way round.
Anyway, Handcase — the Brazilian company behind quite a few applications and games for various platforms, most notably Palm OS — has launched its games for PC.
However, they haven’t developed games from the scratch. Rather they decided to turn their Palm OS titles into ROM files that will run on the Palm emulator, which is free to download. So in order to play Handcase’s games and/or use their apps, you’ll need to run the emulator first and then start the game/app you want.
It may sound complicated, but honestly it isn’t. There’s a special page on Handcase’s website with more information you should visit to get additional details and start enjoying the “good ol'” Palm OS titles on your desktop/laptop computer. 😉
