so i got an n-gage!

[unbroken]

yea the n-gage is my new favorite system! i seriously dont understand why this thing never got big. True, the ngage games suck, but its got fantastic emulation capabilties. its just beyond me why anyone who uses a cellphone wouldnt get this thing. i just wish there was a way to convice people why this thing is so awesome, in turn maybe sell some more n-gage's and maybe nokia would keep making games.

welcome to the club friend, the Ngage is in my top 3 favorites systems of all time, and for the last time dammit, the games are fucking good. try ashen, super monkey ball, pandemonium, and pathway to glory.

[Xexyz]

Pathway to Glory really does have a wow factor for me everytime I see the commercial. Wish something like that would come to the GBA.

Still, I'm never going to own a Nokia N-gage though.

[Lemmy Kilmister]

So did you buy it straight up, or with one of those phone company deals? I'm also interested in getting one myself, but i'm looking for the cheapest opition.

[yoursisterspretty]

Glad you enjoy it. Most people are impressed once they find out all it can do. I've had my QD for around 3 months and finally people have calmed down and stopped asking me, "What is that/Is that really a cell phone?" i'd also like to recommend Tomb Raider. The screens a little small but I think the game works extremely well for the system.

I still need to get one.. I have 11 games for it and no system

i have pandemonium. It's teh suck. No really, i didn't liked it, it's kinda lame, and kinda boring. Also it's a 3 or 4 year remake (not that i don't like remakes) but i didn't liked it.

Be sure to pick up the promo editions of Asphalt and Pathway to Glory. These games rock!

[qbertandernie]

satac! whered those things come from? are they included? id pay full price to have all that crap with the games!

I tried to convice people it was good at the time, but nobody listened..

This "special editions" are promotion for the games - the Asphalt one was given out to german magazines and Pathway to Glory was given out to managers of some electronic stores. You'll find Pathway to Glory on the german ebay:

They are even cheaper on ebay than the normal version in stores...

congrats on finally getting one! i might get one myself one day, but no time soon :P

It did not do well because of the price and because all-in-one products are not yet fully accepted by the consumers. Give them (us) some time.



My N-gage is coming in the mail as we speak.. I can't wait

[slip81]

I think I'm going to get one of the QD's in May. The phone I have right now is shit and I hate it everyday, but I can't get another one untill May under my contract unless I want to pay full price for it (which I don't have the money for).

I'm glad the QD is cheap as well, it's only $99.99 after a rebate, which is good for a cell phone.

Anyone know how good the reception is on them?

Dun dun duuun...most people don't know how or have the equipment to put emulators on their NGage.

I think, from the shots I've seen, that the FPS Ashen is alright, and here's some other titles that should raise eyebrows among classic gamers:

The King of Fighters Extreme (Never mind the Extreme bit, mind )

Xanadu Next (listed on Nokia's release page as March 2005, but it doesn't have a page of its own)! Hmm, I can just imagine what this might be!

[yuppicide]

I think the games look horrible. I don't know if it's the processor inside that makes them run kind of slow, but I just wasn't impressed at all with the system.

Personal preference. But I've never seen the GBA do some of the stuff the 'Gage does.

And I think the reception is really good. Better than my Nokia 3590, 3100b or my LG G4015. Though my old brick Nokia 5190 beats them all.

[maxlords]

Anyone in Germany willing to buy one of those neat Pathway to Glory packages for me?

[classicb]

well I've wanted one of these for the longest time but it being a phone and all has stopped me from getting it because like most of us who have cell phones I was tied into a contract that prevented me from getting the big discounts. well my conract was finally up and I jumped at the chance to get an N-gage. I got mine on Amazon for $75 with a $200 rebate so I got a N-gage and a check for $125 Mine should be here in a few days. I already have 7 games for it. I'm mostly looking forward to playing Tecmo Super Bowl on it though.

[drwily008]

I dont know if it is allowed, but could someone post the best link to check out emulators for the QD? BTW Ive had a QD for close to 6 months and I had the original since before it's launch (bonus for managing an EB at the time). Some of the games are ok, I like Ashen, Bomberman, Puyo Pop, and Sonic. Thinking about pocket kingdom, any feedback?
