The Nokia N-Gage is a mobile telephone and handheld game system based on the Nokia Series 60 platform. It was launched on October 7, 2003.
History
In the early 2000s, gamers were increasingly carrying around both a mobile phone and a Game Boy, the most popular handheld game system. Nokia spotted an opportunity to combine these devices into a more handy unit. They developed and created the N-Gage, a device that included both. Instead of using cables, multiplayer was done with Bluetooth or the Internet (via the N-Gage Arena service). The N-Gage also included MP3 and Real Audio/Video playback and PDA-like features into the system.
The N-Gage has not been as commercially popular as Nokia estimated. The poor sales performance can be attributed to the poor selection of games compared to its competitors and its cost at launch; it was more than twice as expensive as a Game Boy Advance SP on release day. Poor sales were also amplified by game media being standard MMC memory cards without any hardware mechanisms to prevent piracy, indeed rival firms boasted that the N-Gage's games could be played just as easily on their phones.
