- I finally tracked down the last game I needed for my full set of Nokia N-Gage games! I now have every retail boxed hardware release that was ever available for the system worldwide. It has taken me several years to find them all but I got there in the end xD. 55 games in total, all fully complete in box and most (33) still factory sealed. The last game I needed was the uber rare, Australia only release, SEGA Rally.
In this video I quickly go over all the games and talk a little about N-Gage collecting. I'm hoping to start doing some gameplay videos for these games so if you have any requests please let me know. :)
Thanks for watching - Hry
If I was an N-Gage owner I'd be spoiled by the packaging! A freaking game cart holder included with a game! Now we're lucky if we get a manual at all!
Thanks! And thanks for supporting my channel for so long! lol
Good to see you finally completed the collection.
I remember when it first launch my mate Brian, who was always ahead of the technology curve, got the N-Gage. I remember it looked awesome, but I was shocked when he told me how you had to remove the battery to swap games, crazy design oversight. At least they fixed that in the revised hardware model.
Please, make some gameplay videos of the games. Show us what they look like in action. Maybe review some of them.
Congratulations, I'm really happy for you. Been watching your channel for 2 years now.
A completed collection truly is a beautiful sight... congrats :)
Congratulations Martin! Must feel great to finally track down that final game, well done! :D
Awesome collection man, congratz!
Thanks. It's nice not to have to worry about trying to find those obscure games :)
Awesome collection, it's funny seeing a completed collection for a system I know barely anything about. I look forward to seeing any game play videos you post, even the bad ones.
Congrats man! I am still tackling my complete North American Dreamcast Collection!
I love your explanation at the end, there. People ask me why I collect games and keep some of them sealed and they can't understand it. I'm trying to achieve a full Sonic PAL CiB collection which is starting to take up a lot of room, but I think it'll be worth it in the end. Love your collection and pickup videos; reminds me I'm not the only one. Haha
awsome collection. I know it would of been tedious but a little gameplay footage of each game as you pan over it would of been cool. Nice one fella!
Nice one martin thats a good collection u got there mate.
Congrats on completing your collection. It would be cool to see gameplay of the bad games you mentioned.
I want Superman and Metalhammer! Nice collection man, congratulations.
Awesome collection really glad you finally got all the games for the system the look great all together. i would be interested to see Pocket kingdom. Keep up the great vids
Well done on the complete set. Makes my few look rather lack lustre. But then I only pick them up in the wild! I'm not really jealous. :-)
Thank you, it's good to finally have them all :)
what an achievement man, well done!
Wow, I haven't seen this video before, and I am impressed.
I believe Ngage died unjustly and was great little game console, I owned QD one, but could never get more games for it.
I am so jelly about your collection :)
I am glad that someone else also have interest in it.
TheKsax you can pirate them
+David Piçarra The Android, Windows mobile, Blackberry and Ios platforms don't have any working Nokia N-Gage emulator's; please tell me again how I am supposed to emulate a Nokia N-Gage videogame cartridge ?! On a final note: Sony PSVITA and the Nokia N-Gage video game cartridges look eeriely similiar...an homage or a complete rip-off !?
congrats mate, your vids are great :)
lol yeah, but tired or not you finished the vid and showcased an awesome collection. + the N-Gage count-down clock which is well epic.
Thanks. I've not seen an N-Gage game in the wild for years!
Okay now I want one. Been thinking about it for a while but now I definitely have to get one for my collection.
A couple of these games actually look really good, not sure if I'm willing to buy an N-Gage to play them though. Good to hear you finally finished the collection though, congratulations.
Congrats!!
Congrats man. I didn't know there were that many games on the system.
Thanks. I think I'm done collecting full sets :P . I mostly only buy games I like and will actually play nowadays. The N-Gage was the exception :)
A complete N-Gage collection!!!
It's awesome!!! Congratulations! Now you can start reviewing some of this games, maybe foucusing on the exclusives. I played some of the early games like Tomb Raider (great port), Sonic N (an poor port of Sonic Advance) and Super Monkey Ball (another poor port from the GBA) but I never manage to play the exclusives :(
Thanks for the suggestion :) . I'm probably going to do something along those lines.
Awsome...love the collection.
Well played! I see ngages quite often at car boot sales. never occurred to me to pick one up. after seeing this maybe i will.
Throughout the whole video I couldn't take my eyes of that timer. XD
Well done sir!
Thanks for sharing, great collection we will be doing a video soon of our collection. Nice NGAGE clock display shame you didn't discuss what it was
This is insane 😍
I wasn't really interested in the N-Gage but I think the BT Multiplayer and some of the games (Most of your recommendations plus Puzzle Bubble and Xanadu Next are looking at me quite hard...) so I think I will start to search at garage sells to see if I can see N-Gage games and hardware!!... Nope, I don't think I'm going to buy a complete collection but at very least get some of my/your top picks.
Thanks for making me intrigued on this tiny console! Regards from Mexico! :)
Awesome
great collection
That's a pretty big task! Good luck! :)
Now we all know that the NGage was a garbage phone and gaming system but that is an absolutely incredible collection. Hats off to you, sir. Congratulations
Please show the top5 of the ngage :) luv ur videos, like them all. :D
Thanks. Out of all the original N-gage games, only 55 were ever released as hardware copies that you could buy in stores. The rest were either download only or unreleased/unfinished betas. That's why it might appear I'm missing some titles. But the download only games can still be obtained and played if you search the internet ;-) .
wow awesome video👏👏👏👏
Thanks. Yeah it can be difficult explaining the logic (or lack there of!) behind owning/collecting sealed games :P
Good luck with the Sonic collection. You should do a video on it!
I would like to see Call of Duty gameplay, but I just wanted to say that your videos inspired me to start collecting! I currently have 3 original xboxs, a playstation 1, an xbox 360, gameboy sp, gameboy color, and my favorite my Nintendo Entertainment System. Thanks so Much!!!!
Nice vid.
great work on collecting them all, could you maybe do a vid with your top 5 best games & top 5 worst games??? - i love to see sega rally! love that game & would also love to see it shat out the arse of the ngage ;P
amazing!amazing!
Great now I want an N-Gage!
Congratulations! Very cool collection. I had no idea N-Gage had so terrible (non-existant) copy protection. Maybe reason enough to pickup one oneday and just play games off the memorycard if its so easy.
I agree with what others have said, something like a 10 worst and 10 best games on the console video would be very neat.
Thanks. I think some people might be genuinely surprised at what the system is capable of :) . There's several exclusives on the console that definitely make it worth checking out.
Never realised there were so many games released for the N-Gage.
Definitely an interesting collection! I am impressed with your gaming collection! Let me know if you ever need help finding games here in the United States.
That times, when phone was game console - its so damn priceless.
Even N-Gage was screwed because of GBA and technical issues, its still looks more solid than whole IOS and Google Play Market.
i loved you videos so much i bought an n-gage qd on ebay. now im waiting for it to arrive, can you please do a top 10 or top 5 (whatever you like) games so i know what to get in time for the consoles arrival. also, is there any accesories you have that would go with it well.
Have you thought about doing another video about insane ebay prices for retro games.I watched your video and I enjoyed it a lot.
Well done on finishing the set, any chance you want do a GP of Bomberman ;)
Sounds like a good idea! :)
Would love to see some gameplay on what you would consider the best game graphically, really interested in what the N-Gage could do!
Hopefully I can get a few more people interested in the system :) . It'll be a good laugh replaying some of the old games for gameplay vids.
Same here, charged up the QD and started playing some of my old games :) . Dual MMC slot? That sounds interesting! I've never seen one of those.
It depends what type of games you're into but there's at least one good title in each genre.
It's one of my favourites so I'll try and do a vid some time soon :)
grats man I'm inspired , maybe I'll try to get full collection of Virtual Boy
Thanks! :) And I appreciate the offer. Might hold you to that :P
Wow, talk about playing on the go now haha.
Thanks. Yeah there's definitely some stinkers in there. It should be fun to do a few vids on them :)
Was it from a store called Myer in Melbourne by any chance? I'm really intrigued by this game's history. It seems genuinely rare. There was even a point when people questioned the games existence, haha. It's starting to look as if only one chain in Australia stocked the game and in very limited quantities.
Thanks dude, really glad I've finally completed the set! I'm hoping to do some gameplays and vids on the console over the next few months. Maybe try and show people how good the system is! :)
That's a very impressive collection! I have always been a big fan of my QD. What would you say is your most favorite of them all? Funny thing you didn't say much about Shadowkey; that to me is such a rare and unique game.
Well done! What's next?
Thanks! :)
Yes, you can still use an N-Gage as a phone today if you want :) . I was using my original taco model until quite recently.
I'm not bothered about sealed games tbh. Some of the rarer games would be extremely difficult to find sealed and likely cost a fortune.
I'll try and get some SonicN footage into one of my vids for you :)
Thanks :) . Apart from Civilization and Sega Rally, the games you mentioned can usually be found on ebay Germany. Ebay France and Spain sometimes have the rarer games, too ;-) . Sega Rally is really hard to find nowadays :/
I remember when i was a kid i wanted one of these so bad
could you tell us how much you gave for civilization and sega rally and maybe tell us a bit about how you got them, maybe some in the past that you almost got or were outbid? the part of collecting that i like is the stories that go along with it. the stories are quite possibly as good as the item itself! thanks for posting. i'm pleased to see that you found all of them. when you made the video looking for civilization, i looked on the web periodically to help but no avail.
Thanks and yes they copy protection is basically non-existent! Just load up the files onto any MMC memory card and off you go! :) . Although I'm sure that really didn't help Nokia back in the day :/ .
I recommend picking one up if you can. I still have some tutorials and guides I wrote a couple of years ago on how to install the various softwares. It even emulates Mega Drive, GBC and SNES! I'll try and do some videos about it in the next few weeks :)
I've never played an NGage but to see a complete collection is really cool. A few questions: could you still get an NGage activated on a wireless plan and use it as a phone? Are you planning on getting all the games sealed too? Can you do some gameplay footage of Sonic N? I love Sonic games but I've never seen that one...
Great collection, well done mate. I'm a fellow collector, who has begun collecting 5 years after selling on an almost entire collection of games, prerelease demos and other swag. Finding it incredibly different now to collect again. One question, where did you get the black QD fascia? I'd love one of those.
great video! would be great to see some gameplay of that Tony Hawk game, all the footage on here is blurry as heck and i was wondering if it's worth the purchase.
i have a ngage bag that i got in 2005 :D, i still got my ngage i love that phone its a beast!
I also have a complete N-Gage collection including the full download of Payload, a d/l only game which cost, I think, GBP14 to get the serial number to unlock the game fully.
Haha, could you guess I was kinda tired when I recorded that segment :P
The price of the system seems to fluctuate quite a bit. between £15-£50 depending on model/condition etc. The most expensive I've seen a game sell for was a factory sealed copy of SEGA Rally. It went for $400 USD back in 2012. Crazy!
55 wow.
I no longer have mine, but I did enjoy Worms, Monkey ball and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.
Cheers!
gameplay of civilization would be awesome
I remember going to gamestop just to play the ngage cause i never could afford one. I remember thinking " a phone that could play games!? the future is here!"
Thanks, Ed. A few people have asked for a top 5/10 of the best and worst so I suppose you can request both :P
Hows your Sega collecting going btw? I've not seen many vids from you recently.
Well thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :)
that one missing game is payload...it was the last released game and it was sold as a online download on the n-gage arena website, although there were a few "not or sale" labeled hard copies
best part about n-gage was that you could ran the games on any symbian phone without jailbreaking/rooting/whatever your phone :)
Not for the original N-Gage gamephone. Nokia kept and continued to use the N-Gage brand for it's mobile games long after the Taco and QD were discontinued. It would most likely be a download only game released for one of their later smartphones.
Thanks for watching! :)
It was a perfect time killer. I used to play mine in work without anyone ever knowing :P. Any games you recommend?
wow never knew xanadu next was released, from what it looked like it felt like a beta version
Whats your favourite, Ashen will always have a place in my heart. I loved it back in 2003/4 on my long trips to school, classic style fps.
Hi, I think it is very rare, It took almost two years of ebay watching to get a copy, that's the UK version, I think you can still pick up the USA version as they are (were) easier to get hold of, also check the Spanish ebay site as I have seen a copy on there before - but it was expensive. Good luck in your search.
wow i didnt even know it had so many games
That's a big misconception I really want prove wrong :P . It was a commercial failure yes, but a bad system? hell no! It was way ahead of it's time and had loads of exclusive and very good games. The hardware was feature packed and far ahead of the competition for several years. It's only nowadays that people accept smartphones, iphones and 'all in one' mobile gaming devices as the norm. The N-gage was doing all of this a decade ago! :)
