Nokia N-Gage Service Too Popular?
First, the good news: Nokia’s N-Gage gaming service is now widely available. I just got their email announcement today, as many other Nokia owners probably did.
Now, the bad news: The site is down. Seems the service is too popular for its own good. Makes you wonder just how big the market really is for high-end mobile phone gaming.
Google is Light Yagami
What does Google have in common with Death Note’s Light Yagami, besides being God of the New World and deciding who lives or dies based on keywords? Answer: they both like playing Xanatos Roulettes. That’s exactly what Google did with Firefox, and they’re doing it again with the Gphones. Find out how at Emerging Earth.
If Google is Light Yagami, then sign me up as Teru Mikami. Sakujo, sakujo, sakujo, SAKUJOOO!!!

Even retro gaming pushes the limits of technology. The iPhone isn’t supposed to support third-party client apps, much less third-party games. That’s why this open-source iPhone NES emulator is just so damn cool. It even takes advantage of the iPhone’s large multitouchscreen to include a classic NES joypad. It still has control issues and lacks audio, but it’s a promising little work in progress.
