Nokia N-Gage
諾基亞 N-Gage
In 2003, Nokia (NOKBF) launched the N-Gage, a hybrid device that tried to bridge the gap between mobile entertainment and communication by being both pocket-sized gaming device and cell phone. Unfortunately for Nokia, the N-Gage wasn't particularly good at being either. Though it featured graphics comparable to Nintendo's successful Game Boy Advance, it was hampered by high pricing, a poor selection of games at launch and a 20-plus button layout that proved confusing and uncomfortable for gaming. As for cell usage, some outlets -- Fortune, included -- compared making phone calls on it to holding a taco to your ear.
2003年,諾基亞推出的N - Gage。這款多功能手機將普通通話手機和掌上游戲機結(jié)合在一起。雖然它的游戲功能相當接近任天堂的Game Boy,但價格高昂,支持游戲有限和令人迷茫的20個額外按鈕使得銷售受阻。至于通話方面,把手機放在耳邊就像拿著一塊玉米卷一樣。
