You'll need to run games programmed using a special API for mobile applications. The extension for these is usually .jad. JAR files are usually executable files using J2SE, which is unsupported on mobiles.

The 6230 takes .jar files... Get the Nokia OC Suite for it off www.nokia.com

You'll need IRDA or BLUETOOTH or USB CABLE to install them though :P
