N-Gage Stand’s Day Out

Many gamers considered (and still considers) N-Gage as a sorry excuse for a game console, as proven by major drop in sales worldwide. The N-Gage is also not getting any breaks from the arrival of such handhelds like the PSP and GBA. In November 2005, Antti Vasara, Nokia’s vice president for corporate strategy, stated that the N-Gage will be discontinued until at least 2007.

“N-Gage is still being sold but it was not a success in the sense of developing a new category,” he said. With the N-Gage in hiatus until 2007, what’s an N-Gage stand to do? What else but take in the sights and sounds of New York City. What?!

Well, no matter how bad some things are, there’s bound to be someone out there who can appreciate it. So when a lot of gamers proclaimed that N-Gage is dead, here come’s an N-Gage fanboy who provided us pictures of the said game’s stand prowling Manhattan – alive.

Lovely Lady: Are you a game console or a phone?
N-Gage Stand: I’m whatever you want me to be.

N-Gage Stand: If you see a PSP, pounce on it.
Dog: Bark!

N-Gage Stand: Why’d they kick me out of E3? It’s so cold out here. Hmm, that looks delicious…
