Less than 500 N-Gages sold in game retailers during launch week. Don't know how many sold in phone retailers.

Still, that is abysmal. And it's been advertised.

Saw the Edge special in Smiths but no way is it worth paying £5 for a few interviews, previews and a brief history type thing.

And I wouldn't mind one of those greeny black lumps too, let's just hope it comes down even more by Xmas.

But the cover is like, all green with bits of white. Seriously, next time you go down the newsagents, don't bother scanning, you can't fail to notice it.

Don't be so harsh. Some of us love those big greeny black lumps.

Haven't bought it yet, sorry. Just saw a splurge of green on the stand. Really spoilt the decor of the news stand.

A price cut would help, if it was big enough. £300 is way too much. £100 and it would do much better. Look what a price cut did for the Gamecube (sure it is a decent system, but the point is that it was doing poorly until the price cut).

Maybe if a few decent exclusive games came out it might help. Maybe.

At first I thought Edge's pessimism was just them being moody...but they were right. And the skater girl thing was really really really badly done and thought out. Edge put the pics in the magazine...oh dear.
