"So, anyone bothered to buy an N-Gage yet?"

Just wondering if anyone has actually bothered to fork out for this yet?
Despite it being a brand new console launched, I haven't heard anyone singing it's praises which is a bit odd.

I would have expected a slight murmur, but so far all is quiet on the N-Gage front.

It's an expensive mobile phone you can play 4 year old games on

Exactly.

To think the people at Nokia actually think it will compete with the GameBoy. Ho ho.

Snuggers conned me into buying his GBA about a year ago and I played it once then forgot about it. "You can play it on the train to Uni, it'll be fun! Look, Tony Hawks!". Balls, it's crap.

GBplayer all the way. :D

I'll be interested to know how many are sold in the UK in it's first few weeks on sale.

my guess: 23.

Little kids'll get one and those that want to one-up their friends mobiles. The only hardcore gamers I can see getting it are those who want to own everything ever made to play games on.

The games themselves are not bad quality. I had a reasonable amount of control over the games and the graphics are fine but perhaps Nokia could of got hold of some original titles?!?.

I played Sonic on one for 5 minutes. That was long enough.

I saw a pretty good advert for it the other day though.

Not getting one though.
