N-Gage available for the Nokia N97

N-Gage is finally available for Nokia’s flagship device – N97. In order to try it out, you’ll need to start “Software Update” and download the N-Gage client from there.

After the installation process is over, navigate to “Games” and… you’ll figure out what to do next. Unfortunately, not all N-Gage titles can sing along the N97, but you’ll certainly find few interesting ones. The second thing that bothers me is that games do not run in the full screen mode, even though this was somehow expected. The problem is that the games were developed for QVGA screens, most N-Gage devices sport. Hopefully, in the near future we’ll see few titles that take advantage of N97′s nHD screen…

Dusan Belic

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
