    other than the fact that the game.com sucked, and ngage actually has good games and fair graphics....

    it wont be as main stream as most of the other systems, but i think will end up with more of a cult following than the game.com.

    so have any of you guys who pre ordered the newer games recieved them yet? People over on the N-Gage board are also trying to figure out how to get games in the US and so far only one kid has recieved anything. He said he ordered System Rush and Catan from letstalk.com and recieved System Rush and a note that Catan was back ordered.

    what was the word on System Rush? Is it really shipping or is the kid on the N-Gage board just making stuff up.

    I am now up to 23 myself. I really want the new tony hawk, but I will probably wait for the price to drop.

    I usually go out and buy 5 games a week. That means that this week is my sports games week, which will take me up to 28 after tomorrow.

    As long as I can find a cheap splinter cell: stealth team action, I will be able to find many of the other games out there.

    Have any of you checked ebay for catan or system rush?

    system rush is on the hook for an october 31st acquisition at letstalk, to be shipped along with catan(according to the warehouse supervisor). the girl i talked to(who checked on the games) said all of those on my list with the exception of mile high pinball were to be shipped then....meaning high seize and the others mentioned below.

    interesting news though, the official n-gage site has high seize, one, atari vol 1, catan and system rush listed as released, but letstalk has them all backordered. nokia has screwed up several times with posting as released when they arent, but lets hope theyve all been released and will ship on the 31st.

    I wonder why the LetsTalk site lists Atari 2, but not the first one...

    they are all released in the UK. Plenty of kids from the UK are talking about these games over at the n-gage.com boards and the UK site allack.com has been shipping these games since their official release dates. I don't know what letstalk.com's delay is in getting these games.

    The Rifts demo is out. I downloaded it and tried to play it via my MMC card, but it crashed upon starting. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

    System Rush is out in the U.S. this kid over on N-Gage.com managed to get one from letstalk.com

    man these late releases are going to be hard to get. apparently the letstalk.com website doesn't work as well as it should. since some kids had System Rush pre ordered for quite some time and didn't get it when this kid just calls in and they send him a copy. my suggestion would be to do all orders by phone so you can find out if they have the game or not.

    he took a picture to show he actually got it.

    Looks like I'm one of you now...Started my N-Gage collection just under 3 hours ago, and I'm at 33 games. Heard that new N-Gage games were going for 50% off of $6.99 at Gamestop, and I went to town:



    Here's a list of what I picked up (for just under $120):

    Asphalt Urban GT
    Bomberman
    Call of Duty
    Colin McRae Rally 2005
    Crash Nitro Kart
    FIFA Soccer 2004
    FIFA Soccer 2005
    Glimmerati
    King of Fighters Extreme
    Marcel Desailly Pro Soccer
    Moto GP
    Operation Shadow
    Pathway to Glory
    Pocket Kingdom
    Puyo Pop
    Puzzle Bobble
    Rayman 3
    Red Faction
    Requiem of Hell
    Roots: Gates of Chaos
    Shadowkey: The Elder Scrolls
    SonicN
    Spiderman 2
    Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory
    SSX: Out of Bounds
    Super Monkey Ball
    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 20041
    Tomb Raider
    Virtua Tennis
    Worms: World Party
    WWE Aftershock
    Xanadu Next
    X-Men Legends

    Don't know if the one's I don't have are the HTFs, but I'll be on the lookout....for them, and an actual N-Gage so I can try these things out!

    so it looks like letstalk.com is getting ready to do something with the n-gage. I saw this on the front of the n-gage.com website today. this is the first time I've seen it.



    I like how it says limited edition games. the free games are probably when you buy a new n-gage.

    I also joined the N-gage collectors today. Went looking for an N-gage today. At the first Funcoland (Game Stop) they did not have any games on display so I ask and the sales guy said he would look to see if they had all been sent back yet. He found a box and I got 5 games that were priced at $6.99 but no 50% off. .

    Since they did not have any systems I went to the Funcoland accross the street and they still had games on display with a sign saying all games $6.99. It did not say anything about 50% off. Anyway I picked up 7 more games and when he rang it up it came to $124 for an N-gage and 7 games. He took 50% off of the games. . The guys in this Funcoland also said they were sending all N-gage stuff back next week.

    So, Your price may vary depending on the store you go to.

    Also, N-Gage is going, going, gone in Funcoland/Game Stop. They should all be gone by the end of next week. However you may still be able to find them if your local store is a top 200 store. The guy in the first store said they go to one of the top 200 stores when the send the back.

    Well, come Halloween, you'll be short approximately six new US releases and of course there is always Sega Rally which is starting to show up on Ebay. Glad to see all the renewed interest in the NGage though.

    Damn, you Americans have it sweet over there. To actually have a shop stocking them is amazing, but those prices are unbelievable in the literal sense!

    I on the other hand had to earn my games the hard way, by sitting and waiting and snapping them up whenever they came on eBay. I also had to pay a lot more for them too!


    Question: Those of yo now with "Complete" collections... When you say *Complete*, are you also considering Sega Rally too? To me, the collection would only be complete when I have the entire set of released games for my region (UK) as well as Sega Rally...

    I'd have to have my entire main set all the same regional designation though. I wouldn't be able to mix and match UK / US / Australian ones as it would look wrong (With the exception of Sega Rally that is)
