This may just be me dreaming out loud, but is it possible to emulate Age of Empires on the Pandora. I would love to be able to play Age of Conquerors. I'm not sure though if the Pandora could handle processing the game though (especially since it is designed for windows, not linux). If you have any idea, please let me know, i've been wondering about this for about a year now.
Age Of Empires?

Microsoft published game - fat chance at getting the source to port.
system reqs
* Pentium 90 processor or faster (P-133+ for 1024 x 768 resolution)
* Win 95 or Win NT 4.0 with Service Pack 3
No chance on Dos Box either.
No one has written an interpreter that we can use. Zio (old article) has a java version... FWIW.

no, but 0 A.D. will http://wildfiregames.com/0ad/
however they are not done because they need coders!

How will 0 A.D. compare with the likes of Age of Empires, gameplay wise?

IIRC it's very similar, but since it's open source you could change gameplay.SONY said:

It is very sad that although the OS community has made very good games in fields of FPS, MMORPG and turn-based strategic games, the results in the RTS are not comparable to the rest.
I look at AoK and its expansion as the best game ever in its kind because the it's, you know, perfect in its kind. It's circular, every civ has its flaws and strongholds. To this day it's THE game of my lan partys and a single play can take up to 5 hours. I enjoy others RTS, and I love the story behind some of them, but when it comes to multiplayer, then Age of Empires II rocks and it's the way to go.
I've tried some free (as in Freedom) RTS but they are just not finished, with not enough manpower and without a very strong idea behind them. (also they tend to be futuristic whereas I think this is just a possible scenario and also our past is free to use, no royalty in greek and roman civilizations .-P)
I REALLY would like to have the expertise to enhance this situation... But I just don't have the skills and the time to learn them, I hope I could become a good beta-tester for this things. In the meanwhile I can just hope a change in this situation and that a least somehow one day the Pandora could run a AoE game. Or some engines running AoE graphics like happened to something else.

I think AoE is probably coming to Pandora2. The Pandora most certainly has the power to run AoE, the trouble is that it won't unless you recompile AoE and those pesky Windows libraries, DirectX, etc. for ARM. Emulation would, unfortunately, be unplayable/impossible.
The problem is if you do recompile and edit the game, you're violating a bunch of stuff... Need I go into detail?
