Sega exploits classic games

Its really cool to see Sega digging into their past and pulling out some really great games. Pengo was a blast, a surprisingly deep game of pushing ice blocks around. You had both an action aspect (crushing your persuers using sliding blocks) and strategy (getting the three diamond blocks to line up for bonus points).

Other Sega titles that could work well: Hang-on, Outrun, Zaxxon, Alien Syndrome, Bank Panic, and Columns. Frogger, while distributed by Sega in the US, was a Konami game, so no luck there (although Froggy is a really good recreation that already exists for Palm OS).
