Full details on Nokia's successor to its N-Gage mobile gaming device have been revealed today, ahead of tomorrow's full global press briefing.
As has been widely expected, the key design faults of the original model have been drastically overhauled: the 'deck no longer requires the user to remove the battery to insert games; instead, you insert and remove game cards via a slot at the bottom of the phone, protected with a rubber guard.
The new gamedeck will be sold alongside the existing model; while the new design looks rather more chic than its predeccessor, this revamped version of the N-Gage has sacrificed some of the functionality of the original deck. The MP3 player and radio have been removed from this latest version.
The new N-Gage is smaller but less slender than last year's model, while the rubber casing should make the deck both more comfortable to hold and also more durable.
From a technological standpoint, N-Gage's vertical screen remains, though this screen can display 65,000 colours - the original N-Gage could only manage 4096. All games will be compatible with both versions of the N-Gage, however.
The keyboard layout remains similar to the first unit, though there's now a separate 'select' button to the side of the D-pad.
Crucially, where the original unit required mortified users to clamp the phone to their ear at a side-on angle - a phenomenon dubbed "Sidetalking" and universally derided - the new model handles like a regular mobile.
Whilst it's geniunely incredible certain aspects of the original model made it out of R&D at all, Nokia must be applauded for creating the device N-Gage really should have been like in the first place. And if there were any lingering doubts over the Finnish company's long-term commitment to its phone/games console hybrid, they have been dashed by this important strategic repositioning.
Aside from removing the needless problems stemming from game card swapping and phone utilisation, Nokia's major leap forward with the remodelled N-Gage is to tighten the focus of what the device actually is.
Gone, Nokia hopes, is the confusion over its phone/mp3 player/radio/games console/vacuum cleaner/whatever; the new N-Gage brings with it a sharp focus on gaming, illustrated by the scrapping of mp3 and radio functionality.
What now remains to be seen is how much damage the problems associated with the current model have done to consumer perception and the N-Gage brand as a whole. The new model is a positive, sensible step forward and Nokia has certainly been able to bring big-name franchise onto the unit, but until now sales have been dismal to say the least. With Nokia now insisting it really is all about the games after all, the time has come for N-Gage to deliver with triple-A, exclusive software.
Nokia will make the full announcement about the new N-Gage tomorrow; we'll bring you a full report and first official images then.

N-Gage QD aka N-Gage 2 launched on www.N-Gage.com, quote below:
'Meet the newest member of the N-Gage family! The N-Gage QD game deck has all the gaming features of the original game deck, plus a few welcome adjustments - like hot swap for your game cards. We trimmed off the MP3 player (and some of the price!), gave it a slick, non-sidetalking design, and shrunk it all down so it fits better in your pocket. The N-Gage Arena launcher software is also pre-installed and ready to go, so you're that much closer to owning the mobile gaming world. Hey, you talked, we listened!'
P.S. Interestingly in the specs it says that its still only has a 4096-color screen.

Nokia are expected to confirm details of an improved version of their N-Gage handheld games machine at a press event that takes place tomorrow (14 April) in London - although early images of the device have already leaked on to the net.
The design of the new N-Gage - which isn't N-Gage 2 but simply an updated version of the existing machine - addresses many of the fundamental problems that the original was criticised for. So you'll now be able to slot games straight into it - as you can with a Game Boy - as opposed to having to remove the battery every time you wanted to swap between different titles.
And the new N-Gage will also allow users to hold it like a traditional mobile phone, as opposed to the widely derided original design which forced you to hold it on its side.
The new design - which apparently will be made available in addition to, not instead of, the current model - also drops MP3 support and the radio in a bid to refocus on its game-playing capabilities, although both models will be able to play exactly the same games.
However, reports elsewhere that the new N-Gage will feature a built-in camera appear to be wide of the mark - while one of the early images of N-Gage 1.5 does include a 'camera' menu option, the hardware doesn't seem to have a camera, so it's probable that this is just temporary software. We'll have loads more on N-Gage 1.5 later this week.
Heres some pictures
What do you think of it?

After seeing several pictures of the Ngage 2 on the internet im not impressed at all, it seems like Nokia have listened to some complaints but the Phone/Game Machine still looks rubbish, A GBA SP with a keypad/number pad that flips down with a touch of a button would make a much better phone.

Marcel Desailly Pro Soccer has been postponed again. Details are unclear as to when it will be due but a May releases date looks most likely. Nokia are holding an N-Gage Pre E3 Press conference in London next Wednesday, so hopefully things should become clearer then.

Chris Rydberg has news from Taito. Their Retro Arcade fest of Taito Memories has been suspended and will not be released. Along with that news, their other N-Gage plans have 'not been determined.' The N-Gage software scene is not good at the moment, with Sega delaing apps, Taito pulling out and EA commenting that the N-Gage isn't the greatest of machines. Let's hope April the 14th doesn't turn into a wake.

Kirsi Kotilainen, Nokia's developer relations chief, revealed details on N-Gage 2 during the Game Developers Conference. These minor details are important, if obvious, changes that need to be made to the system. Firstly, the speaker and earpiece will be mounted on the face of the unit, like most mobile phones, instead of the top. Secondly, it will now be possible to change games without conducting minor surgery on the game deck.
N-Gage has endured massive trials and tribulations since its release in October of last year. Between criticism of its design and interface, its software library, its price, the so-far under whelming sales, and the recent public mocking of the system by EA's John Riccitiello, N-Gage faces an uphill battle with consumers and the media. Nokia has scheduled a press event for April 14, which will likely be when N-Gage 2 is revealed to the world.

Nokia's N-Gage update, the N-Gage QD, will not ship in the US this month, as planned. Instead, the phone maker has rescheduled the launch to 27 July.[br][br]Separately, the company said it has cut the number of N-Gage titles it expects to see shipped by the end of the year by up to 60%.[br][br]The N-Gage QD is already available in Europe and Asia - it began shipping in the UK on 26 May - and is set to ship in Canada on 29 June.[br][br]The QD is more compact than its predecessor, and its more curvaceous casing makes the unit more easy to operate as a mobile phone. The unit's gamecard slot is now hot-swappable, and is located in the handheld's base, behind a rubber panel - so N-gage users no longer have to remove the battery first.[br][br]Nokia said today that the QD offers better battery life than the first N-Gage yet sports a brighter screen.[br][br]As per the previous edition, the QD supports Bluetooth-based multi-player gaming and can connect to Nokia's global N-Gage Arena community. A new N-Gage Arena launcher app makes accessing the N-Gage Arena easier than before, providing direct access to the N-Gage Arena community directly from the game deck.[br][br]In the US, the product is "ready for shipment", a Nokia spokesman said, but "we have made a business decision to maximise the impact of the launch by synchronising across all channel partners".[br][br]"For the Christmas market, there will be 40 games available," Nokia's head of strategy Matti Alahuhta said during Nokia Connection 2004 today. Punters can currently buy 20 games, he said.[br][br]Last December, however, Nokia said it expected to ship 50-100 titles by the end of 2004.!
