Title: Remember the N-Gage?

Even before these things came out, they were a joke. It only had two games that were actually exclusive: Pathway to Glory and Pocket Kingdom: 0wn the W0rld. Plus, you looked like an idiot while using it as a phone.

I still remember all the Babbage's employees that tried to sell me one. And the Nokia employees who begged me to buy one when it started to fail.

I said no, walked out of the mall, and laughed really hard. :D

I feel sorry if any of you own one.

If you're gonna own the N-Gage, you gotta own the side-talkin', take-out-the-battery-to-change-the-game original.

Man, I laughed so hard when someone came up to me and offered my parents a 1 year contract and a bundle of games.

My parents were already skeptical, but then I whispered in their ears that the phone was terrible.

lol, yeah. I remember seeing them in the store, and laughing at how overpriced and terrible it looked. Good times.

It's a rip-off of my Banana phone. >:|


That console looks like it would go good with salsa.

They were that desperate? What retards.

Hey, at least it's better than the Gizmondo. No, seriously. What the crap is it supposed to be!? A phone? A camera!? A gaming device!? A Portable Computer!? WHAT!?

This is why phone companies should not try to make a video game system, even if it's part of a phone.

There actually is an N-Gage 2, it's just a download service for Nokia phones.

Yes I remember that. It was a fad that died out WAY too fast. It only lived for like, 3 months, and then they quit making games for it. Plus, most of the games could be found on other consoles, like Sonic N (which was really Sonic Advance on the GBA, but why would you get it for N-Gage if you could get it on GBA instead) and Rayman 3.

There was one game that almost made me get it...

It might have been Sonic N, but it was most likely Super Monkey Ball.
