Meteos Mobile is a mobile port of Q Entertainment's block-launching puzzler. Each of the 32 planets from the original game were available, and players could battle via a Bluetooth connection.
While the game has remained lost media for a long time, as of December 22, 2024 a Trial version for the Vodafone live! J2ME platform, which came pre-installed on the Sharp 905SH, has been preserved; the unused material documented in this article takes in consideration that version of the game.

Unused Graphics
The 15th and 16th images extracted from png_menu.bin consist of the unused Soul and Time Meteo designs from Geolyte and Yooj's tilesets in the original DS game, which also go unused here.
Furthermore, the 161st, 162nd, 165th, and 166th images extracted from the same file consist of meter graphics for those same types. They were meant to be displayed in the planet selection screen, but never do so, likely due to their Rare Metal status.
Version Differences

Demo Versions
Two different demo versions of the original release are known to exist: one was pre-installed in the Sharp 904SH,[1] and another in the 905SH, though only this second demo is currently preserved.
- The first demo features Geolyte as the default planet, with Firim being unlockable via Fusion. The second demo, however, features Stadium as the default planet, with Geolyte being unlockable. Firim and Stadium play exactly the same, having the same Meteo fall rates and physics, though the latter planet would gain proper parameters in the full game.
Exclusive Planets
In February 2007, Sony Ericsson launched the W51S phone in Japan, which had the BREW/EZ-appli version of Meteos Mobile as one of its pre-installed games. Three additional planets were available for each of the three available colors for the phone, though they consist of asset flips of already-existing planets, with all of them having unique background and alien designs, as noted below. These planets were not available in the J2ME and DoJa versions of the game.
| Planet | Reskin of | Notes | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lattice Black | Lattice (ラティス) | Firim | Has a different planet image (darker) and playfield border. |
| Floret Pink | Floret (フローレット) | Florias | Block design is recycled from Geolyte/Yooj. |
| Luster Beige | Luster (ラスター) | Lastar | Has a different playfield border and a unique block design. |
Meteos Online Mobile
On December 3, 2007, SoftBank launched Kousoku Online Game, an online service which used TCP/IP connectivity for multiplayer connections for their S! Appli applications, instead of HTTP.[5] Among the launch titles for this service was Meteos Online Mobile, an updated version of Meteos Mobile which adds support for it, but that doesn't appear to be any different otherwise. A demo of this version, which came pre-installed on the Sharp 934SH and that only features the planet Geolyte, has since been dumped.
