Dare I ask if anyone here on the TFP has the Nokia N-Gage?

hulk · 03-04-2005, 04:08 PM

Heh heh heh. Silly old Nokia, they still think it's going to be a big success.

That' still around? Jeez, does that mean I can pick up a VisualBoy as well?

EDIT: Or perhaps a Virtual Boy...

Visual Boy is a GBA emulator.

Virtual Boy, on the other hand, was a failed endeavor by Nintendo into the "3d" world. Oops.

In regards to the N-Gage, I'm gonna have to go ahead and say no. Anybody who actually has one here would be too ashamed to show their pathetic face, as it would immediately be placed upon a pike to be ridiculed by all and eaten by crows. And rightly so, because the N-Gage was a foul spawn of hell, created by a company that wouldn't know a gaming system if one kicked it in the balls.

Why, you don't have one, do you?

Whoops. Typo'd. I just remember that the stores had Virtual Boys set up so that you could try them. And next to them were signs that warned about seizures and headaches, and said that you had to be at least ten years old to use it.

Not seen anyone in the UK with one

hulk · 03-05-2005, 09:41 PM

I've seen a total of 1 'one'. He was side-talkin'. I laughed.

I love how they showed the "real game play" on a commercial for it, the framerate was so damn slow during a football game I just laughed.

Haha, no. I just wanted to see who has/had one and what the general opinion on it is.

I've seen two N-Gages since they came out. One belongs to a mallrat who hangs out at my work all the time. His NG is somewhat modded/hacked so it plays NES/SNES emulators. He also says he wants to ditch it

The 2nd NG I've seen belongs to a friend of mine.... who is convinced that the NG is the greatest handheld "hybrid" device ever. The only thing I can tell him is that there is a reason that MP3 players, cell phones, and portable game devices are all separate.

I sold two of them in one day last fall.

They were the only two that I or anyone else that worked in the store I worked at for half a year had ever moved from the shelf. And they both happened in one 5-hour shift.

It was bizarre.

Xeno, I take it you work at a video game shop?
