Is it true?

Lets hope so. They seem to be distributed evenly throughout the year.

I hope the games are cracked (no offense Nokia).

If they aren't cracked, it is still possible to buy the games eg. Sega Rally and copy those system files to my 256MB MMC Card (under E:/system/apps)?

It is for my convenience ... so that all my games are in one multimedia card.

Is it possible?

PS: Anyone in Australia know a place where we can buy 512 or 1024 MB MMC Cards?

[gophermaster]

No. It won't work, otherwise there would be no protection at all, and there would be no need to crack the games.

Yeah, I also live in Australia. It seems as though MMC cards are pretty scarce, I couldn't even find a 256MMC at my local shops.

[nk_au]

Good point. So I still have to wait for people to crack the new games. I don't want to buy them because:
1. They cost money from my pocket
2. I have to swap MMC Cards constantly because I don't play the same game everyday, which means I have to turn on and off

So when the games are cracked, I can store all the N-Gage games on one 256mb MMC Card ...

@Gophermaster, you can try buying one off Ebay AU. I'm bidding on another 256MB MMC Card ... preparing myself for the new N-Gage games of 2004. My current MultiMedia Card has only 29MB left. I think I will fill it with my mp3s ...

[gophermaster]

Ok cool, I might end up doing that.

Yeah, I agree with you about the swapping of the N-Gage games, taking the battery out and then swapping them, its way too much hassle.

[nk_au]

I think Nokia made it so that it is not hot-swappable so that people won't be able to take out the MMC while files are transferring etc.

Otherwise people might make a hassle and damage either the phone or MMC card. If you turn it off then take out the card, everything is ok. I think that's why Nokia made all phones with MMC slots BEHIND the battery. But still, I want to change them easily

How many phones have they made consecutively which don't have hot-swappable MMC slots?

oh man, all the games are delayed... earliest the nxt game is out is march 13th.

but i bet it has to do wif the cracks. since they cant prevent ppl from cracking their games, they decided to delay it.

I know. I hope the popularity of the N-Gage won't drop because of the empty February.

Nokia should at least release a dodgy/crappy N-Gage game in February to fill in the gaps. Maybe many people won't buy the N-Gage because:

1. No new games since December 2003
2. No special games for N-Gage. All the games released so far have been released on other consoles eg XBox
3. Many people think that if you want a gaming machine, just get a Gameboy or something rather than the N-Gage. Why the hell would they do that? :-x

It's only 8 February, and we still have 34 days to go for a new release (that isn't cracked!). Damnit, why does 2004 have to be a leap year? :-x
