Other [Nokia N-Gage / QD] NotForSale MMCs Complete Thread: Alpha, Beta, Gold, Dev, P/Review, Promo, ProtoType, Boxed J2ME.

That's good that U still save it. Btw, we a bit dig resources of that Beta. There some interesting unused files inside.
Yep, that's version already mostly close to retail (around a month before retail), but in unused files there stored test location,
just with character and some test environment. Not a super surprise - but still cool enough.
Also, all that test data already deleted from retail ShadowKey MMC.
So, keep that G2.0 MMC in your collection. It's still rare.

Very cool to hear there's some unused content on the cart! Definitely keeping it

It's a combination of an mp3 player and a flash drive with about 250 megs of press material on it. Mostly boring stuff, however.

Spoiler: List of files on the flash drive:

Any chance you could or already have dumped these? boring to some is not boring to everyone!

Tachikoma, I'm already honestly asked him for that, but got enough strange sh!t erm... "answer" that ~ "I'm a big hoarder" and that he not interested in that, lol. So, sadly that looks it's better to wait when I will find/buy that kit too and will freely share it to web, like I did with all other N-Gage Gold/Media Press kits back in time. 'Cause in this thread sadly only one real "big hoarder" ha-ha, and that's not I.

 

[DirkDagger]

Seriously updated whole my N-Gage guide. Added much new internal N-Gage information and cool exclusive photos of Gold/Dev MMCs from my collection, incl. pics of some of my rare official boxed J2ME releases. As always, anyone could feel free to contact me here in PM abt questions related to N-Gage NFS/NFR media collecting. I will be fine to chat or buy/exchange N-Gage media I still not recovered and save.

So I was reading through this topic and noticed the shrink wrapped version of sega rally is fake? Mine is shrink wrapped AND has a seal. What's up with that?

 

[DirkDagger]

As U can see, there are different opinions regarding the outer packaging of the Sega Rally.
If to base on my own experience with shrink wrapped N-Gage AU-Oceania releases, that I unsealed personally back in time,
incl. few SR examples, all was fine with their content inside the box and all items were w/o any signs of wear.
I think if the security N-Gage seal on the edge of the box with original N-Gage hologram have no any signs of re-gluing,
with your release all must be fine. So U can be calm.

Hi fellow collectors,

Interesting thread!

Although more of a Nintendo-guy, I got intrigued by N-Gage some 10 years ago when a friend showed me some ‘weird’ games that he had bought from a thriftstore and I have been collecting games and other media for the system ever since. You can really tell that Nokia put a lot of love (and money) in their gaming system and its games. Personally, I’m collecting for a complete sealed European UK set (+Sega Rally & NCAA football) that I keep in special N-Gage box protectors. I only need Atari Masterpieces Vol. II for the full set. Anyone has a spare lying around? I already folded the box protector for it. It has been sitting empty on my shelf for quite some time now. Sad story.

I’d like to add some more Nokia (not specifically N-Gage) history for the sake of preserving:

2003 boxed MMC’s
These boxes contain a physical MMC cartridge that can be played on N-Gage, as well as some other phones and PDA’s. It adds a total of seven games to the N-Gage system library:

• Retro Atari is a compilation of 7 old school Atari games. All these games are playable on either Atari Masterpieces Vol. I or II, except for Breakout. That one is new on N-Gage, because Atari Masterpieces Vol. I has SuperBreakout on the card.
• Nokia Games to Go is a compilation of 6 very random games: Cell Mill, Cell Poker, Geopod, Lemonade Tycoon, Slurp and Solitaire. The card games aren’t too interesting, but the others seem to be quite cool.

There is not much information on the internet about these games, that were released late 2003. Retro Atari pops up on Ebay from time to time, but Nokia Games to Go is ultra rare. They seem to be from the US, where you could get them for a very limited time only. Both these games have a version with a different cover, but with the same MMC inside…



Movies
Then there are these Digital Media Card MMC movies. As far as I know, there is a total of 10 movies that can be played on a variety of Nokia phones, including N-Gage.



Pack-in MMC’s
These N-Gage original MMC’s came bundeled with the N-Gage in Europe. Flo Boarding is an Euro zone pack-in for the original N-Gage model. The others are pack-in MMC’s for specific N-Gage QD models (in Spain only). The movies on these QD pack-in MMC’s are all in Spanish, unfortunately. The games are in English, except for Barakel (which is in Spanish). In my opinion, Snakes is the only game worth playing on these MMC’s, but they’re all a nice addition to the collection. By the way: there are more versions of these QD pack-in MMC’s that have a different movie (in Spanish) but with the exact same games.

 

[DirkDagger]

Nice addition to information abt the 3rd Party Symbian/N-Gage games. If I remember right, there were at least two editions of Atari Retro compilation.
1st one for old S60v1-v2 phones, like N-Gage, 3650, 6600, etc... and 2nd, later released variant for newer S60v3 smartphones,
like Nokia N95, N82, etc... Also cool boxed MMCs. That Nokia Games To Go pack definitely not the too often thing.

As for the movies, also nice collection. I have same pack of Video RS-MMCs with the films, but If I remember right,
there could be found some more official physical MMC Videos in the wild. Also quite not common media.
Some kind of stuff, like PSP UMD Videos. That was interesting enough, but not so popular.

Back in time, some companies even released music also on RS-MMCs (Small MMCs with adapter), for S60v1-v2 phones.
Somewhere at home I have a sealed boxed Hip-Hop compilation (for sure official album).
Later when will be at home where stored the most part of my collection, will also add some pics.

Here are some sharper pictures of Atari Retro (both versions, back & front) and Nokia Games to Go (version 1 back & front) and a stock photo of version 2, that I don't own. The stock photo is the only proof I found that it even exists. I have never seen that version pop up for sale.
The earlier 2003 versions have a nice little window (upper right of the front side) through which you can see the MMC cartridge inside. The other versions (probably both released in 2004) got rid of this window for some reason. Both versions have a (partial) different phone/PDA compatibility.

Back in the day, MDM published quite a lot of these boxed MMC's. Unfortunately, most of them are only compatible with Palm OS devices or Pocket PC and not with N-Gage.

But what about the Civilization N-Gage Gold / Media Press kit? This is not on your site.

 

[DirkDagger]

I don't understand your question, mate. Please rephrase it. Thanks.

There is no Civilization N-Gage Press kit on your VK site. "and will freely share it to web" - now i don't understand anything

 

[DirkDagger]

Ah, now I understood what U need. Yes, not all stored in VK. U can get dumps of all my Press Kits from here:

37.09 GB folder on MEGA

133569 files and 11057 subfolders

mega.nz

There also some extra data that wasn't mentioned here and in VK. Enjoy the stuff.

 

[BobTop]

Nice collection. There is almost everything.

 

[deadlegion]

Definitely some great stuff there, thanks DirkDagger

Explain, Nokia Games To Go contains Symbian games or jar?

Explain, Nokia Games To Go contains Symbian games or jar?

I don’t know, unfortunately. I keep it sealed for collecting purposes and there is no information on the box or online about this one.
