Abstract:

In 2004 the global mobile game market was valued at about $450 million. Mobile games are different from typical console games such as PlayStation and Xbox. Nokia is making an ambitious foray into games with its N-Gage game deck. N-Gage uses an innovative wireless multiplayer platform to provide both local and remote interactive gaming. Rivals contended that N-Gage had serious flaws. When N-Gage failed in the market, Nokia revamped and relaunched the product as N-Gage QD in April 2004, just six months after the original N-Gage was released. Only time would tell how QD would fare in the intensely competitive gaming industry.
