Games for the Nano?

I cant find games that will work for the nano on itunes. what BS are they trying to pull with only games for the touch and iphone?

I've read a lot of the posts on this forum, but I don't seem to see a real answer to this question. Most responses just seem to point to where the clickwheel games are listed. However, as some others have said on other posts, although the top of that page states that these games are compatible with 3rd, 4th, and 5th generation iPod nano (and a few other iPod models), if you look at the individual game descriptions, not a single one lists 5th generation nano. One (I forget which) only lists 3rd gen, and all the others list 3rd and 4th. So, it is not at all clear if any of these will work on the 5th generation nano. So just saying where the clickwheel games are doesn't really help.
I don't have time to read every comment on every game (especially when most of them are like, "Hey Apple - we want free games!" or "Make Guitar Hero!"), so I am hoping that someone here will have some answers. I have managed to glean that the .99 games of Chinese Checkers and Reversi don't work on 5th generation because parts, but not all, of the images are reversed so things don't line up. I did find one post on this forum that said that Monopoly does work. Can anybody say from their own experience which games they have tried on 5th gen, and which ones worked or didn't work? If you have any opinions on the games themselves, that would be great, too - for example, when I was reading about Yahtzee, apparently the computer plays like a moron so it's not worth playing the computer on that one.
I won a 5th gen nano at my office Christmas party, and am a complete novice at this, so any help is appreciated! I am really enjoying the games that came loaded on it, and would like to add some more, but I am not sure there are any on iTunes that actually work with this specific model.
TIA!!!!!!

  • Games for the nano 6th generation

    Question for Apple:
    Are the any plans for additional updates. For example it would be good if there were a few basic apps/games for the nano considering the price associated with it.
    Please note I understand that there is limitation to what can be added due to the size, however I do believe that adding simple card games such as solitaire, hearts, black-jack would really enhance the product and increase customer satisfaction of the product.
    I brought this Ipod to replace my classic version with probably the same size screen(but not touch) and that came with games.

    Are you referring to the iPod Classic that you can currently buy? If yes, that screen is quite a bit larger but more importantly you use the click wheel as control for any games, such as solitaire, black jack, etc.
    With the current touch screen you would have to have awfully small hands and very good eyes to use the screen to control the game plus see what was happening at the same time. But it really doesn't matter as there is no Software Development Kit (SDK) available to developers for the Nano OS, so there is no possible way for them to develop games.
    If with all these limitations you would still pay for games on the Nano (not sure what the price has to do with it), you need to send your request to Apple, they are not here.

  • Making Games For iPod Nano's?

    Does Anyone Know If They Will Make New Games For The iPod Nano Because That Would Be Big Business. It Seems Like Everybody Wants New Games For Their iPod
      Windows 2000  

    THere are text based games you can get for the nano. but there is no graphicss games you can get for your nano. If you want more games you can sell your nano and get the 5th gen ipod and buy games for the larger ipod off of itunes music store BUT these games are NOT for the nano. If you wnat more games did you ever consider the sony psp. THe psp plays games movies and alot more or even the gameboy.

  • Buying games for ipod nano

    Where/how can I buy games for my nano?

    Hello Mitsubishi,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    To locate the iPod games, you will have to hover your mouse over the App button at the top of the iTunes store window until a small arrow appears on the right side. From there, you can click on that to open a drop down menu that has an option for "iPod Click Wheel Games" That should be what you are looking for.

  • How do I find games for ipod nano 3rd generation

    I cannot find games for iPod nano in iTunes even though all the support keeps telling me to select iPod nano from the Source list. There is no source list, no games tab, nothing that leads me to the iPod nano games. When I click on apps, and just go to a game, they are all just for iphones, ipads or ipod touches. This is frustrating. Any help would be appreciated!

    I believe that a few really low quality iPod games were distributed as freeware a long time ago, however you're much more likely to find malware infested web sites than any genuine source if you go hunting for them, and you'll still be disapointed with what you find. If you want games get an iPod touch.

    iTunes never displays the iPod in the left pane?
    iTunes is shipped with a "helper application" called the "iPod Service" that runs and is used by iTunes to communicate with the iPod device. This service may be disabled.
    If your system is Microsoft Windows XP and you are logged in as an Administrator:
    1. Quit iTunes and, if your iPod is currently connected to your computer, safely remove it using the system tray application to manage removable devices.
    2. Right click on "My Computer"
    3. Select "Manage"
    4. In the "Computer Management" window, left pane (tree view), follow this path:
    +Computer Management (local) > Services and Applications > Services+.
    5. In the right pane, scroll down to "iPod Service" and double click it.
    6. If the service is listed as "Disabled" and "Stopped," change to "Manual" and "Start" it. ("Manual" will cause it to start when iTunes starts and "Start" starts the service right now.)
    7. Close "Computer Management"
    8. Restart iTunes and wait for it to completely come up.
    9. Reconnect your iPod.

  • Will games for the iPhone ever be able to play on the iTouch?

    I have some games I bought for my old iPod which don't work on my iTouch, but will the new iPhone games ever work on the Touch?

    Your old iPod games will not work on the iPod Touch (unless they are ported over by the developer). However, new games for the iPhone/iPod Touch will be available through the App Store, starting next month. You'll need to buy the $10 v2.0 Upgrade for your IPT to access the App Store, and then you can download the games (some will likely be free, some paid, some with a free 'light' version and a paid 'full' version).
    Hope this helps...

  • What's a good forge game for the iPad?

    I was wondering if there was a game for the iPad kind of like Gary's Mod or the forge on Halo Reach.

    There isn't one, and there won't be one. Apple and Adobe could never get a flash player that worked. And now since Adobe has ceased all production on mobile flash, there won't ever be one.
    Your best alternative is to explore the app store for browsers that support flash and see if one of them will do what you want.
