Nokia to close N-Gage platform Monday 2 November 2009 | 09:43 AM CET
 
Nokia plans to close its N-Gage mobile gaming platform, in favour of selling games on its Ovi Store. In a posting on the N-Gage blog, the company said it will stop selling games on N-Gage at the end of September 2010. While the N-Gage.com site together with the N-Gage Arena and other community features will remain in operation throughout 2010, the Ovi Store will be the new central place for all the mobile games that Nokia and other publishers offer from this point forward. Nokia will no longer publish new games for the N-Gage platform, and will not ship any more handsets with the N-Gage application pre-installed. The Ovi Store already offers over 1,000 games and is accessible from 100 Nokia handset models in over 180 countries. Ovi offers the possibility of posting reviews of games, and Nokia plans to add more community elements to the site for gamers.
