New N-Gage software runs on several Nokia phones [Thu Dec 7, 11:33PM]

Just over a year ago Nokia announced that they would put development of the N-Gage on hold until 2007. This week, a month before that 'deadline' passes Nokia broke the silence regarding the N-Gage.

In a press conference at Nokia World, last week in Amsterdam, the Finnish cell phone maker announced the next generation N-Gage gaming software platform. Yep, a platform, not a device.

When Nokia launches its new mobile gaming platform next year, it won't just be available on a couple of handsets, and you might not even need to change phone to get it.

"We are planning to support something like 5-7 devices when we launch," he says. "Some of them are already being sold today, in fact. So if you have one of those devices, you'll just have to go to our website, download the application to your phone. It's like any Series 60 application, and it works."

Nokia isn't announcing which mobiles will run the new N-Gage app yet, as they're still being tested. However, seeing as Kaidesoja was demoing it on an N93, it's safe to assume it's one of them.
