'''N-Gage''' is a a handheld game console and mobile phone developed and designed by Nokia Corporation,
announced on 4 November 2002 and released on 7 October 2003.<br>
N-Gage QD introduced in 2004 as a redesign of the original "N-Gage Classic", fixing widely criticized issues and design problems. 'N-Gage' was discontinued in February 2006, with Nokia moving its gaming capabilities onto selected Series 60 smartphones.<br>
[[N-Gage 2.0]] was announced in 2007.
 
Originally a joint Nintendo-Nokia cellphone handheld hybrid project slated for 2005, Nintendo backed away from the project (and its plans for NES/Game Boy ports for mobile were repurposed for their Virtual Engine project). Nokia continued the project on their own anyways and released N-Gage on October 7, 2003, for {{Inflation|USD|299|2006}} as the most powerful handheld of its time, that is up until the DS and PSP came along and ended Nokia's hopes at dominating the handheld gaming market. It had an ARM920T CPU at 104 MHz.
 
However, while gaining support through GBA/PS1 ports (including the only English version of the JP-only Xanadu series until 2016) and a few original exclusives, the thing suffered from huge design flaws, from the button layout to the display and cell phone functionality. Furthermore, as a derivative of business-oriented devices, it didn't even have any dedicated video or sound hardware, so not unlike many of the PC MS-DOS games, the main CPU had to take care of it, severely limiting its full potential.
 
Has a revision called the ''QD'' which was unveiled on April 14, 2004, with an ARM9E CPU. ROM dumps of Symbian and N-Gage games are available.
