    Hey everyone, just wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of some really good 8-Bit, 16-Bit or PixelArt games for iPod Touch/iPhone?

    I love oldschool looking games and I'm trying to build up a collection of the best ones that have been released. Thanks so much for any suggestions!

    Everything by Poppy. The games vary in fun factor (Brave Man and Hot Dog Panic are my favs) but I bought all of them because their pixel art rules. :cool:

    Ditto to Hook Champ. One of the best games AND art.

    Wait a bit for the new Bulkypix game coming out. I think it's called Pix 'n Rush or something. It looks pretty good and has cool graphics

    theres a cool little game thats kinda slipped under the radar called...

    8Bit Race 3D.

    takes the old le mans game and sticks it in a 3d / psuedo 8bit environment. its really cool tho needs slide controls imho.

    why has no one mentioned eboy fixpix?
    that art is my favorite on the iphone.

    additionally, beat it has the same feel to it.

    Yeah Pocket Boxing... game's a blast! Also, votes for Hook Champ and FixPix. Oh, and Pew!, though the games a little too short its a fun space shooter.
