I have some unique resources, I'm not saying that they are bad, but I wonder if anyone would be interested in old mobile games? Like for the Nokia S60 era (Ericsson, LG, Motorola, etc etc).

Edit: some 60-70 games, with source code, for around 30-50 versions per game. It was a wild time where compatibility was usually just a word:-)

Thanks!

Old Symbian Engine games? Please. Honestly, any mobile game you can. People are quite interested, but it's a very niche area with large gaps in resources.

Hah no sorry, it's j2me. But it was the smoothest games around at that time 😎

Symbian, that was the c-like stuff for the S60 right? There was an unplayable (IIRC) 3D Lara Croft game right?

Edit: we used the S60 for gold (e.g the first full version after alpha, beta. Then declined them, so it was usually the best) so if you're into the S60 then it might be interesting.
