Nokia N81 mobile phone showing Nokia N-Gage gaming platform

Nokia have relaunched the N-Gage, but this time, instead of a dedicated mobile gaming phone, it’s now a gaming platform, from which you can download games, set up high score contests, etc. You can even rent games for 1Euro a pop, then buy the full game if you like it.

N-Gage games will work on a variety of Nokia phones, including the Nokia N95 and new Nokia N81, which is featured prominently in the video of the new N-Gage platform, showing off its nifty mobile gaming prowess.
