An independent study shows sluggish sales for Nokia?s new handheld console.
Although Nokia claimed that the N-Gage is selling out, Arcadia Research, an independent market research firm has released sales figures for Nokia's N-Gage in the USA, revealing that the handheld game system has sold under 5,000 units across both videogame and mobile phone retailers. Unlike the study published in the UK, which only focused on video game retailers, this study includes mobile phone retailers, offering more definitive evidence of lackluster sales of the N-Gage. Such low sales figures put the N-Gage as one of the weakest game console releases ever.
