The thing is, the N-Gage phones from yesteryear are nothing to do with the current business.

The current Ngage platform is a kind of XboxLive type client that allows you to play games on the better nokia phones (mainly N-series stuff)

I installed a hack that allowed me to play the demo titles on my N93 and some of them were quite good IMO but it always seamed like the N-Gage platform was not getting leadership and everything was half arsed.

The N93 phone was promoted with Ngage, yet the phone was never given official support, which pissed a lot of users off.
