Nokia hoopte met de N-Gage een nieuwe generatie handhelds te kunnen introduceren die tegelijkertijd ook konden bellen. Er zijn heel wat games uitgekomen voor de mobiele telefoon maar nu heeft Nokia toch besloten te stoppen met de N-Gage en geen nieuwe versie te zullen produceren.
“Nokia’s VP of corporate strategy, Antii Vasara, has confirmed that there are no plans to develop future versions of the N-Gage as the company turns its focus towards other mobile entertainment media.
Speaking to Vnunet, Vasara admitted that the N-Gage did not achieve projected targets, stating: “N-Gage is still being sold but it was not a success in the sense of developing a new category.
“We learnt that people want to play games on all devices. As such we are integrating the gaming software into Series 60 phones.”
