    So I recently bought a Asus EEE 1005HA and so far I have been pretty happy with it. I am not using it for anything important, just using it as a computer that I travel with.

    I started thinking it would be nice to have some games on it too. So I did a google search and the best suggestion that I found was to put some emulators on it. I put an N64 emulator on it which honestly hasn't been working too well, as well a Super Nintendo Emulator, Game Boy Advanced, etc.

    Keeping in mind the limitations of a netbook (the biggest one being the graphics card), are there any games you all would suggest putting on the Netbook?

    Does it have an Ion GPU?

    No, I think the new ASUS Netbooks do, but mine is an older model.

    Torchlight

    Heroes of Might & Magic 3.

    Check out GOG.com for a lot of great older games.

    Why not download some NES Emulator and emulate the old times.

    Contra, Castlevania, NBA Jam, all that goodness.
