N-Gage 2 slated for 2008; hide your offspring

Let’s face it, the original N-Gage failed miserably. But that doesn’t seem to worry Nokia too much, because they are taking another crack at the handheld market in 2008 with the N-Gage 2. Few details are available, but we do know that both EA Mobile and Gameloft have pledged to back up the system.

At this point in time, I seriously doubt that Nokia will be very successful with their next N-Gage (PSP anyone?). But, if they are able to deliver a handheld that doesn’t look like a taco, has some great titles, and is affordable, then I might just be interested.
