Chinese Chess
If you’re a fan of Chinese Chess, head on over to iPhone Cake and check out some of their offerings. Their Installer source is: http://iphonecake.com/src/all
Just to let you know, i’ve had to SSH into my iPhone as the permissions weren’t set right after downloading from Installer. One game in particular that is offered on this site, is probably the most polished game i’ve seen for the iPhone yet but due to a cease and desist letter I received about a month back, I can’t post about it. Happy hunting and let me know if you find the game i’m talking about. I can probably delete my copy of iZoo now.

SNES Emulation Goes Public
The emulator guru’s over at ZodTTD.com have released snes4iphone v1.0.0 on Installer. Download it by adding: http://zodttd.com/repo/ as a source. Games for the most part are playable with the only major caveat being the lack of sound. iPhoneskinning does not condone the piracy of Super Nintendo games, however fair use may legally entitle you to download the ROMs for games which you already own.
From the readme.txt:
Firmwares before 1.1.3 SNES ROMs must go in /var/root/Media/ROMs/SNES/
Firmwares at or above 1.1.3 SNES ROMs must go in /var/mobile/Media/ROMs/SNES/
