Another review from Pocket-Lint, this one of the new Nokia N-Gage called the N-Gage QD. Despite some much needed improvements, like the ability to swap games without removing the battery, the verdict from Pocket-Lint isn’t pretty.
“Both the PSP from Sony, and the DS from Nintendo boasts specs that far outshine those on the N-Gage we just don’t think this will have enough capabilities to fend off the new challengers as of 2005.”
But the N-Gage has a phone you say? Doesn’t really matter according to Pocket-Lint. They’ve predicted the death of the N-Gage within a year.
“Unfortunately the writing is likely to be already on the wall for the N-Gage in our opinion. It’s a shame, so if you are going to opt for the phone-cum-games console then we suggest you enjoy it while you can, you’ve got nine months at the most before Nokia may be forced to pull the plug.”
Nokia are you listening? We’d love to hear what you have to say about that. Why will this handheld survive?
