SheepShaver:
http://sheepshaver.cebix.net
SheepShaver is basically a PPC Mac OS emulator, and it has not been ported to a mobile device yet. But there maybe a chance for the Pandora to be the first mobile device to use SheepShaver. Although it maybe slow on some non-PPC Linux devices, Pandora can probably run SheepShaver well. If I'm wrong just leave me a reply right here.

Aleph One:
http://source.bungie.org
We have Doom, Doom II, Quake, Quake II, and Quake III Arena, but we don't have Marathon. If you run it off SheepShaver on Pandora (which might exist or not), it'll go slow. The solution to that is Aleph One, formerly known as Open Source Marathon. This game is (I guess) based on Marathon 2, but you can use different game content for it. It can even run the data of Marathon 2 and Marathon Infinity.
 
Aleph One: Looks possible
SheepShaver: Doesn't look possible. Assembly appears to be used in this, and the only ISAs that seem to be used are i386 or PPC, of which the Pandora is neither.

Regarding Aleph One, Pickle had it up and running in late May, if that's of any help. :)

I requested Pickle to make SheepShaver for Pandora, but he didn't respond yet.

Forgot to tell him that SheepShaver needs other libraries like SDL. :S

nvm, he responded back to me and told me that he has nothing related to Mac OS to create a ROM. He also asked me if SheepShaver uses C.
