Nokia N-Gage w/110 Games + 620 Ringtones !!!!

Now, this would belong in the ebay forum, but I have a question, are these emulated games for the nokia transferable from PC CD to the N-gage, or is this just some cheap stupid gimmick the seller is trying to pull?
I didn't think emulation would start up this quick on the n-gage since, well, it sucks so bad.

Most expensive? It's at $260 right now with 2 bids LOL
I thought for a second you were gonna show us an auction for a proto N-Gage. Now that would be interesting to see. Probably they're scared to let us see them (we didn't really just clone the GBA and add a bunch of clutter, no, really!)

Well, notice it just says 110 games, it doesn't say what they are for. I'm guessing PC demos/shareware that have nothing to do with the N-Gag.

OK, just checked, apparently people ARE buying N-gages more expensive than this on ebay. Considering how bad it is, how doomed it is, and how you can get it for $200 practically anywhere else, I REALLY didn't think anyone would actually PAY MORE than $200.
But, I guess ebay showed me once again.

Oh, I forgot about the current price of the thing, sorry. eBay...like you said, people look at those little pictures and buy things they wouldn't have bought offline. :/

I read on ZD that the Game Boy emulator for Nokia cellphones will run on the NGAGE, although I have no idea how you'd get it onto an NGAGE.

I still wouldn't buy it though even though it has almost 600 tones and etc.

Well, it does use carts, so a flash-cart can't be far behind for emulatory purposes (that's my fav. new word, I've used it twice today now, emulatory, that makes 3)
I'm still waiting for a backlit GP32 to go down in price.... Unfortunately, I'm waiting for like $100 :)

Bah, just say "for purposes of emulation." "Emulation purposes."
:>
Anyhow, another mark against the N-Gage! It might be open source but it's not terribly easy to get files to (or actual GAMES, for that matter).
