I bought "Mini Golf" from iTunes when it was new, now i have found where it goes, besides in the "ipod_control" (http://www.wikihow.com/Copy-Music-from-Your-iPod-to-Your-Computer) folder it also goes to where ever your iTunes folder is, once you compile all the fragments (it should be 4 or 5 folders) you can copy it to a friends computer (free)
right now i am making an extremely helpful guide on all info of putting ANY (like doom for example) game on any ipod if someone could enlighten me on how to upload .txt documents to gamespot i could just post it somewhere
ill just post some of it in here, if u dont understand then contact me.

-----IPOD_CONTROL-----
So you can't find "ipod_control" well you shouldn't be able to, it's hidden. To make this folder unhidden you need to open up "My Computer".
Then select "Tools" then "folder Options" and click "View" and look for"Show Hidden Files and Folders", select it then "ok".
This is how you see the stuff you add to the iPod with iTunes (it's also the way you copy music from a friends computer, the music may look like it's all codes and you have no chance of decodeing them but iTunes will understand it.)
The "ipod_control" will be inside of the drive that names your iPod (for example, you're looking at "My Computer" click on "Your name's iPod"
-----MINI GOLF-----
These files must be switched to a Hidden format and pasted into "ipod_control"
The only files that should be coppied are:
Games_RO
GameStats_WO
GameData_RW
The files:
iPod Games
iPod Games Library.itl
must be placed into the iTunes folder and no further.
As for those last few documents, they are meant for "Mini Golf" I don't know yet how the file change in between games. I am currently working on getting more.
I have also heard that once you've downloaded each individual game your account info is tied in to the coding and the game must be authorized to that computer. This may only be a rumor but it is a potential problem.
*Any games you download from iTunes only work on 5G iPods (Video) but Note Games will work on almost any.
-----NOTE GAMES-----
GTA San Andreas is a note game (you choose what you do by answering questions) and you only add it the same as you would and other note, the entire "GTA San Andreas" folder goes into the notes, do not empty the contents (for your own mental safety).
GTA Mini has the exact same info, the only difference is the questions/paths to choose.
