"Nokia has announced that they will not be developing updated versions of the N-Gage. This funky cell phone/portable gaming machine was released in October 2003 after a massive marketing campaign to promote the N-Gage as the "new" and "extreme" cell phone that is also a gaming machine. Antti Vasara, Nokia’s vice president for corporate strategy admits, " N-Gage is still being sold but it was not a success in the sense of developing a new category. We learned that people want to play games an all devices. As such we are integrating the gaming software into Series 60 phones."
Mobile phone gaming has just taken a turn for the worst, or has it? Did the nGage fail because it was a poorly designed gaming device/phone? Or did it fail because people want their phones to be phones first, and gaming devices second - or third/fourth/fifth? You decide.
