N-Gage

Post by Mr_Beardsly on Sept 20, 2003 20:07:37 GMT -5
Anyone know when the PSP and new GB (GBX I heard) are coming out? Chances are they'll totally anhilliate the N-Gage. I belive the n-gage is also:
An mp3 player
Wireless ineternet
Other Gimmicky cell phone crap
So it does have some stuff GBA doesn't. But I wouldn't buy one for gaming, nor would I spend 400 on a cell phone, so theres pretty much no chance of me getting one. Maybe if they release Mother 3 or an OB game exclusivly on it, but I don't see that happening.

I can't remember when the PSP is coming out, but the GBX is supposed to come out in under a year after that... I don't know which one I want, I'll have to wait and see, since we know next to nothing about the next GB... and very little about the PSP...

wow, always a shock to come back after a 24 hour blackout to see that a thread you intended to be deleted has 16 posts. Oh well...
Sounds like an interesting contraption to me, but
1) Serious Gamers won't bother
2) Anyone who's not a serious gamer shouldn't be interested in paying extra

Agreed, N-Gage is stupid... I mean, how dumb would you look if you're playing the thing and you get a phone call and you put the thing against your head? Not only that, but you hold the phone with the thin side to your head! So it's like holding the original GBA to your head with the power switch at your mouth and the volume dial at your ear. How awkward, and yes, you would indeed look like a horse's ass. |

The N-Gage will be the stupidest thing ever. People who buy portable gaming are serious about gaming, so implementing a cell phone, calender, address book, etc. into a portable game system and thus jacking the price up is bullshit. Not to mention that the N-Gage only has a 4-hour battery life and you need to remove the battery before inserting a new game. It's $400!!  F**k the N-Gage. This new upcoming Tapwave looks more promising, but again, it implements PDA features into it, which increases the price.   |

Yeah, if only your facts were right. You may want to check the specs again on the N Gage before bashing it. Its 20 hour life battery for radio, 8 for mp3's, and 3 - 6 for games if im not mistaken. And also its $299.99...a whole 1 and 1/2 weeks of work...big whoop I could probably buy it if I didn't spend my money on other things but I have no reason to. I don't really need wireless internet and if I did I would put it on my relatively new laptop, I have a cell phone and CD Player(for music), most of the games probably arn't the type of games I usually play, and finally I don't care much to waste 300 dollors. |

(PSP has 3-6 hours of battery life, according to current specs) WHOA, only 3-6? the next-gen GB is gonna open up a can o' whoop a$$  unless playstation can do a little better. Maybe it can make 3-d holograms and only needs 1 AAA battery  . Sony has got to have something really good if it wants to compete with and crush nintendo on handhelds. Are you sure those specs are right? |
