onikage over at CAG found that these had been marked down to $20 and the games to $2.99. That is if you can still find an EB or Gamestop with these. Thought some of you guys might be interested.

I couldn't find any local ebs or gamestops with them still in stock, so I ended up buying my friend's for $90 with 15 games (complete / barely used).
He may wind up giving me a few more games as well, which would be cool.

Hmmm, I know a local GameStop that still has them. Thanks for the tip, I've been thinking about getting one.

Aren't Software Etc.'s connected with Babbages?.. who are also connected with EB? We have a SE.. I'll have to go check them tomorrow. Thanks for the tip!

Oh wow, great catch, I still really want to get an N-Gage...I really hope I can find one at this price...
Thanks for the heads up.

For that price I think I'll pick one up now, if any of my local stores have them.

None of the stores near me have them. If someone wants to sell one for a decent price, let me know.

I would like one too at that price, if anyone can pick up an extra one, I am willing to buy it.

Somehow I doubt they would be that low..I'll have to ask.

I have not seen an N-gage at any local stores in a long time. If this is true, I am willing to pick one up from somebody.

This morning, I called most of the EBgames and Gamestops near me, and no luck. All sort of laughed when I asked about it saying that they have not stocked them in ages.
Damn...

Doesn't surprise me. Most gamestore employees are retards when it comes to people asking about platforms that are not very popular.

No systems anywhere near me, but that wasn't such a surprise. I did pick up 10 games at $3 each though. Now to find an N-Gage to play them on.

Likewise...guess I'll scout out the local stores and see what's around.

I haven't found anything around here - but I'll keep looking.
I found a local guy selling a QD and 3 games for $40, but it got snatched up :(

So after reading about this, and knowing I need a new contract I decided to go hunting for a phone. I still have no phone, but instead I decided to collect every n-gage game. I now have 33 n-gage games and a car adapter but no n-gage. The n-gage probably will be either found in a cingular store, or just online at n-gage.com (still sells em even though they don't make them) I still don't know what I'm doing when I have a large EB bag FILLED with n-gage games.
I have a local store with a bunch of games. If anyone finds a system for $20 and wants to trade for games let me know. Here's what they have:
Pocket Kingdom
Bomberman
Operation Shadow
Worms World Party
Virtua Tennis
Requiem of Hell
Rayman 3
Pathway to Glory
Pandemonium
Colin McRae Rally 5
Elder Scrolls
Tiger Woods PGA Tour
Fifa Soccer
Fifa Soccer 2005
Marcel Desailly Pro...
Moto GP
BTW, does anyone know if it's possible to unlock a Cingular prepaid N-Gage so I can use it with T-Mobile?

Uggh I can't find n-gage systems or games here - the only thing I can find is a QD case for $30!!! :eek 2:
I just went into the local eb games
They didn't have any systems for sale
but he had a demo model in the back
He gave it to me for free!!@_@
I then bought 14 games and a car charger for $49
cheapest deal i ever got :D

How much are they selling those games for? I'm interested in a lot of them.
And I'm fairly sure Cingular can be unlocked to anything, when I bought my second QD that was for Cingular I unlocked it to accept AT&T and if I recall correctly T-Mobile was allowed as well.

All games should be $2.99 @ EB. Some have reported finding them for $1.50 @ GS.

Yep, they're all $2.99 each. I believe that Pocket Kingdom is the only game I got the last copy of.
Do you have N-Gage games to trade? If so, post a list and maybe we can work something out.
I was able to get the phone unlocked thanks to some links found in the CAG thread, so I'm a happy guy. I ended up getting a $50 Cingular Prepaid unit from GameStop.

My EB is the same way man. :(
Sucks to miss out on this, cause this is a great time to see what the Ngage is really like.

My god man why jump on the bandwagon now folks.I have had mine for 2 years and still use it to this day.It in its time it gave more funtions for the buck than any other phone.
$20 thats a steal even if its a stripped down version.I

Went to Software Etc, EB, and GameStop today looking for one.
GameStop said they destroyed them...literally.....
That GameStop used to be so cool, now they don't even have PS1 games, it stinks :(

04-22-2006, 06:11 PM
I called all the EBs and Gamestops in my area, none have any N-Gages left. Too bad. I always said I'd get one once it went bargain bin. Guess I'll just have to hope I get lucky and find one somewhere now.

Three bux a POP? Wow. I'd pay $3 each for many of those games. Will be checking out some reviews here.

I scored over 12 titles for $3 each at an EB in the mall. I'll have to keep an eye out at EBs when I'm out and about.

04-24-2006, 09:35 PM
No luck on any I have called. It looks like I may have to Ebay one if I decide to get one. I don't want to pay current retail price for them, since I would rather get a DS for that kind of money.
