    Default The Beginning Of The N'd - N-Gage's Demise...

    As long as I have been on eBay, new games usually sell for somewhere around the store price if there sealed. But while browsing today on eBay I happened to come across this new/sealed Tomb Raider for N-Gage...

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=49232

    Check out that BIN price...and dare tell me that even resellers on eBay know that N-Gage stuff just. isn't. selling.

    why would you ever buy a game w/o the system!?

    Anyways, I'm sure the GBA version is much better...

    Maybe for the same reason that I would. Usually, if I have a game that I don't have a system for, the system shows up within a year or two. (The only exception in my collection so far is the Neo Geo.)

    Well...the gba game is just an average 2d game, whereas the ngage game is full 3d, very close to the first tomb raider game on psx...

    Yay! The N'd is getting closer! Can't wait to walk into EB or GS and see them marked down so low.

    Heh. They're all gone now.

    Still, I wonder where he got them to make them so cheap.

    Wow.. that was fast.

    I just received my copy of TR for the NG.

    And, well, it IS what it is. It is complete, brand new, still sealed. If only all the games were this cheap. And the system.

    It came with a note from the seller:

    Thank you
    If you want more of these Tomb Raider games, let me know @ soccermanbg@aol.com
    I will leave you good feedback
    Please do the same. THANKS AGAIN
    <Signature>
    Well, I'm off to leave feedback. This was quite a fun little experiment.

    Curious, though. How many does the guy have? He said "If you want more..." Too bad it's just TOmb Raider games. If he had one of each game, I'd take them all. Especially Pandemonium! and Taito Memories and Puzzle Bobble. In hopes that one day I will have an N-Gage to use them on.

    I believe Taito Memories got pushed back until May ( ) I asked him if he had any others after I paid, he said he didn't but if I had a list of the ones I wanted, he would see what he could do.

    Man!

    I would like to ask him and see if he may be getting it though. That and whatever else fun I might actually want to play one day.

    Edit: The seller now has three more and the BIN price is now $7. First it was $10, then $6, now Supply and Demand has pushed it up to $7. You think we had something to do with it?

    Edit Again: After a search on eBay, there are a small amount of brand new N-Gage games going really cheaply. Maybe this really IS the N'd...

    ...Yay!

    Where can I get a list of every N-Gage game released so far and ones coming out soon?

    I'm just curious. And would like to know.
