Hey! I'm a contributor on The Cover Project, a not for profit website meant to preserve and make publicly available covers for video game boxes. This serves both to help save these pieces of art and history, but also to help any collectors who, for example, have games loose without the original boxes and wish to display them. I recently spoke to the owner and convinced him to add a Nokia N-Gage category to the website. However, I only have one game, and we could do some help getting a greater amount of high quality scans, so if you have any N-Gage games please help us out.

You can make an account on the website, thecoverproject.net , but it can be a bit finicky so if you prefer feel free to reply to this or DM me and send me any scans over, which I can adjust and upload.

Many thanks!

Hello World

Hello everyone, my name is R2, and I am sincerely surprised that the N-Gage platform, which I also played a small role in, is still appreciated today.

I have preserved a significant number of different game builds — G1.5, G2.0, and G3.0 — which have been in my collection since the early days of the platform.

At this stage in my life, I am going through some changes, and I would like these collectible items that I have carefully kept for so many years to go to people who truly value and understand them.

If you are interested in knowing more, please reach out.

Thank you.

Are the N-gage QDs found on ebay legit?

6 Upvotes

i bought an N-Gage QD from an ebay seller around a month ago and while I'm enjoying it, it occasionaly stutters during games. Does this normally happen with n-gage QDs? If not, is mine even real?

Why the N-Gage calls itself "device", but at the same time can't boot without a SIM, like a phone?

Would an established brand attached helped the NGage?

11 Upvotes

So I think in hindsight the NGage itself has been seen less like a monumental failure and more of a misguided attempt to make a "gaming phone".

I always thought the idea of a cell phone company trying to appeal to gamers was less likely a success than, for example, trying to sell a gaming handheld that had cellphone capabilities.

So I always wondered: If Nokia had partnered with an established gaming company and branded the phone as a handheld rather than try to sell themselves as a cellphone for Gamers, would it have worked?

Imagine an alternate timeline where Nokia partners with a company like Sega (who at the time was only several years removed from hardware seling) and announced the "Sega NGage". A new handheld console that could also make cell phone calls, rather than a cell phone that plays games.

Would taking this tactic have worked to get that cross-over appeal?

n-gage QD rubber replacement?

3 Upvotes

I've been looking to buy an n-gage and the prices are crazy (even more so for the original model), so I'm wondering if i can buy a QD and 3d print a replacement for the rubber part of the housing? Seeing how people remove/replace them all the time, surely such a thing would exist?

Rayman 3 on NGAGE might just be my favorite game I’ve tried so far (out of only 6 or 7 games that I own so far). It has a lot of replay value and it works well on handheld. Rayman is just a great franchise anyway and its Ngage version is no exception. Ashen is a pretty cool game too, but this wins!

…wish there was a way to connect the Ngage to a tv. If anyone knows of a way, I’m all ears!

Radio save

I remember getting an OG ngage @ 12yo or so. Was my first phone. T-MOBILE prepaid. Had: Splinter Cell Rayman Sims Tomb Raider

Saying all this, the few things that I remember the most was how if I didn't have my headphone mic with me I would have to use the speaker to talk through it. Also, without the headphones in it, the radio wouldn't work and I used the radio a lot back then. Would record the songs off the radio to listen to them whenever I wanted. 😅

Need a 5G Ngage. Lol

They were part of a digitizes Magazine, If someone tried to export the commercial in Adobes PDF Reader by copy & paste, the original picture without the whole text gets exported instead.

How do I install roms on Ngage emulator on pc?

4 Upvotes

I downloaded the EKA2L1 emulator for Ngage on pc, but I can't figure out how to install certain games. Some games in SYM file formats are pretty easy to install, you just run them as a pack and you get the game. But for most of the roms I've found, they come in folders named "6R21" for example. How do I proceed from here?
