The Seven Deadly Sins Of The N-Gage

Posted by simoniker on from the still-talking-about-it dept.

Decaffeinated Jedi writes "GameSpy has posted an interesting article examining the so-called Seven Deadly Sins of the N-Gage. The 'sins' of Nokia's mobile phone/portable gaming unit cited in the article include problems with inserting and removing games, the less-than-intuitive interface, and the relatively high price. In all fairness, however, GameSpy also looked at the Seven Virtues of the N-Gage in an editorial from December 2003."

    "... and for ladies that want to keep it in their purse, be prepared to keep some of your makeup or other essentials at home, since there won't be room for them."

    Exactly what is that demographic like? The one that includes early-adopting, high disposable income, avid gaming women?

    I suppose that's like 4 people, including those in American Samoa. I tried to find some girl gamers but Yahoo won't let me talk to them without verifying my age. Damn you Ashcroft.
