"Sega, Capcom and Taito N-Gage Nokia's Handheld

By: Ravi Hiranand January 31, 2003 12:01 PM PST
With only two months before the device sees a European release, software support for Nokia's N-Gage, a "game-optimised" cellphone, is rapidly ramping up. Saturday's Nihon Keizai Shimbun reveals that Sega, Capcom and Taito are set to provide titles for the device, which promises to provide wireless multiplayer gaming over Bluetooth and will also play MP3s (for more details, see our story here).
According to the newspaper, among Sega's first games for the device are a Sonic title, while Taito will provide Space Invaders and Capcom some, er, "popular games" (so Street Fighter and Resident Evil, then?). Nikkei also states that the number of Japanese firms supporting the device is likely to increase, with Namco considering adding its considerable weight to Nokia's camp. The first wave of titles will be sold both on memory cards and downloadable from cellular providers, according to the article.

Nokia is set to hold a press event next week to show off the phone and the software lineup, so expect news and impressions then."

Games from the biggest third party companies upon launch. Sounds good... just wait and see.
