N-gage is NOT A BAD PHONE!

[spider486]

It's an okay phone!! just a bad fucking console! lol

[g0sub]

best phone i ever had.

[VVWEtitantrons]

Hey, do you still use your ngage today? I do, just wanted to know if other still do as well.

[dogeymon83]

@VVWEtitantrons - No, I kicked the N-gage habit in 2010. I simply could not ignore the iPhone any longer. It's a phenomenally superior device in so many ways, it's unreal. The N-gage is woefully (and I mean woefully) outdated.

[jheffasian]

@VVWEtitantrons me.. i still have n gage qd and classic ... i got 150 games in n gage ... so many great apps .. wanna share something about ur n gage? so i can learn

[VVWEtitantrons]

@jheffasian Yeah, try getting emulators on your n-gage, that will make it more enjoyable if you love the old classic games.

[jheffasian]

@VVWEtitantrons do you have links where i can download full emulators and roms for it?

[woweixiaomiandui]

i really liked my n-gage as well, still have it :D

[mohabiraq1]

It's a good phone , who said it's bad.

It was my phone for about 4 years.

[allen0088]

doesn't the ngage has a dail up modem built in so you can connect your pc to the internet?

[dogeymon83]

God no! N-gage wouldn't have any modem in it. It just has a very primitive XHTML browser that's virtually useless today. Some websites like ebay and gmail have mobile versions that you can access on the N-gage. But you wouldn't want to.

[allen0088]

@dogeymon83 does it use a standard 3.5mm headphone jack commonly used in most electronic devices such as psp, ipod, PCs, etc? or the smaller 2.5 mm headphone jack?

[dogeymon83]

@ allen0088 - Actually, no it does not have a standard headphones jack. The original N-gage came with an adapter, as a matter of fact. Google N-gage Cable Kit.

And by the way, the N-gage has bluetooth and I did in fact dial up my internet and use the net on my Tapwave Zodiac back in the day. But it was way slow. I don't think that's the same as having a modem, but close enough I guess.

[allen0088]

@dogeymon83 I just got my ngage original and i love it but i cant seem to get the memory card and game to fit in at the same time

[dogeymon83]

@allen0088 - You bought one??? Heh. Congratulations. Hope you like it. I really want an iPhone because I love the iPod Touch so much and have been thinking of getting a new phone. But I'm still thinking about it.

N-gage is a fun collector's item. It's like a real handheld system. And I love the games. Durable hard cases and little game cards.

Uhhh, why would you be trying to put two memory cards into the N-gage???? ....that doesn't make any sense. It only takes one card.

[allen0088]

the games have memory on them?

[dogeymon83]

Uhhh, the games themselves are just MMC cards. Those ARE memory cards. But no, the commercially released games do not really come with extra memory included. Might be a MB or two free but they're copyright protected I think.

It's either a blank MMC card, or a game card. There is only one game slot.

Maybe I misunderstood you. What do you mean you can't get the memory card and game to fit in at the same time?

[allen0088]

do i have to switch out the game and memory card to play them only one at a time or can i listen to mp3s and play commercially released games simultaneously? like for example with the PSPs 1000-3000 series you can put movies,photos and music on the memory stick then put the game in the umd drive. are there 2 separate slots on the n-gage for commerically released games and the memory card n-gage?

[ieddieable]

sorry but it is sooooooo ugly please reply

[dogeymon83]

@ ieddieable N-gage is spiffy looking. I love how it looks.

[lookatcha]

i used to have one of these, just a distant memory now :(,, its all about the iphone 3gs now

[delta1029]

your video totally persuaded me to buy one.. lol

[dogeymon83]

Haha, well I'm glad you like the N-gage. But if I could take back the time, I'd be trying to persuade you to get a GP2X Wiz.

Search for it on youtube.

[catastrophy10]

HOW DO U GET SOFTWARE

[BulletToTheBrain01]

Do you know if it is easy to put downloadable games onto the N Gage? Can you tell me how?

Thanks in advance. Good review. 5/5 and subscribed... I think i subscribed the other day...

[imsuxppl]

ya N-gage better then N-gage QD. My N-gae QD oredy use 5 year wat olso don have olso got MP3 and some song. 1 Game olso don have Wan install it say memory low. Can give me Vboy to play can ?

[dogeymon83]

I don't think you're speaking English. It's like some kind of alien language. :)

[mmatt830]

In the manual it says that the music player only works with 128mb mmcs and i notice you have a 1gb. I have a 2gb mmc and i get an error when trying to use the music player have you had this problem?

[dogeymon83]

I don't know what manual you're reading. When the Nokia N-gage was going strong, NOKIA was putting its 256MB and 512MB cards in EBGames stores to buy.

The 1GB card works fine. I've used a few brands and they've all worked fine. It's 1GB so the phone takes a second or so (or several) to start up the mp3's.

I've never used more than 1GB. I would imagine it wouldn't work. Don't use those MMC+ cards. Just the regular ones.

I've heard of people's 2GB ones working.

[mmatt830]

I guess im out of luck with the music player but games still work on the mmc.

[mmatt830]

This is the page from my manual

[mmatt830]

media fire. com/imageview. php?quickkey=om4ewmdciiz&thumb =4

Thats the page from my manual.

[dogeymon83]

Well I'm pretty sure they were still developing cards at the time that that manual had been printed. I'm sure there were new sizes available afterwards. :) And in fact, there were. And they were sold for N-gage.

[kungullipafara]

hey do you now how is the original ngage

[farcry2ffan]

LOL i had this phone, i was gonna sell it but i left it on the bus with a charger... lol and it still had the sim card in it... but the sim card doesnt work... they lost the number lol

[austin1776]

Oh ok. Thank you. I found that out right after I commented on this video. Haha.

[austin1776]

Does the N-Gage QD have a mini/micro SD card slot?

[dogeymon83]

No, definitely not. A multimedia card slot only. And SD-CARDS will NOT work with this. Only MMC's.

[f99506]

yeah,ngage qd and classic ngage rocks!i have the 2 of dis...

[satejunk]

N-Gage is almost become a perfect phone at that time, only need a camera.

[tolstoydreamcastfan]

i have an n-gage and i love it!!! :D

[PwningSheep]

The classic N-Gage phones can still compete with 70% of the new "advanced" phones available on the market. That's really amazing if you ask me. I've been an N-Gage user and I always will be.

Good review.

[davecarldude]

glad you feel the same way as i do. i've had the qd for 3 years and loved it.
