Nokia N-Gage Cracked
The Register reports that the security system built into Nokia’s N-Gage has been cracked, allowing other Symbian-based mobile handsets to play games designed for the Finnish handheld console-cum-phone.
So claims gaming web site Spong, without explaining how the crack works. But work it does. Siemens phone fan-site ClubSiemens has a series of pictures of the handset running the N-Gage title SonicN.
“The Ngage games runs very well on the SX1,” the site reports. “[You] just need to transfer the game file to the MMC and use a specific application to install the game. There is no lag at all and the sound is nice, especially when using the stereo headset. Graphics are perfect, just have to remember to press the hash key to get the game in fullscreen.”
This seems an interesting idea though stuff like this might lead to cracking and game piracy. I don’t know where this will lead to with respect to Nokia and what measures the company might take to prevent such a thing from happening.
