compatability issues

I have noticed that the sx1 can play some games for the n-gage, 7650 etc. but not others. Does anyone know why? Is it a software or hardware problem for the phone, or is it the developers not wanting the games to be used on any phone other than that which they were made? Can software patches be obtained (such as the x-force 3d engine that geopod uses) that would let the games work?

Thanks.

The main issues seem to be that games designed for 4096 colour screens will not display properly on 65k screens, and lack of memory.
