The NGage Has A New Boxed Game For The First Time In 20 Years (retrododo.com)

Sure, the fact that new Game Boy games are coming out in 2025 is incredibly exciting, but I bet you didn't think you'd be seeing a new game complete-in-box for the Nokia NGage? 

Say what you want about Nokia's entry into the handheld world (and Nokia's stupidly timed release date competing with the Game Boy Advance), it's still an interesting bit of kit and has a loyal cult following of gamers who still wonder 'what could have been' if the NGage had managed to defy all the odds and become a commercial success.

Isn't this the device that required you to take out the battery in order to change the game?

It sure is but it also lets you do some side talkin' so your greasy face doesn't mung up that beautiful screen! It all balances out.
