Zeemote to make cellphone gaming more bearable

With gaming becoming a core model in mobile phones (just look at the repackaged Nokia N-Gage platform), there is still an unadmitted obtrusion to the entire gaming experience turned miniature: phones aren’t really made to play games.

Zeeto’s Zeemote concept might change that as the Bluetooth enabled controller that resembles the Wii nunchuck finally received funding […]

Level-Up offers Gamer SIM and grabs gamer market share

My co-panelist JC Medina of Level-Up Philippines was talking about a new Level-Up Gamer SIM card. For those not in the loop, Level-Up is probably the brand name of gaming in Asia as they hold the franchise of […]

Nokia N-Gage relaunched: From hardware to service

Perhaps one of the most surprising and enlightening announcements today from the Go Play event was the rebranding of the Nokia N-Gage from a hardware product to a service. The once hardware-centric brand is now a software and service that will be available throughout the Nokia phone platform. What this means is that anyone will […]

Although the Nokia Go Play event ended several hours ago (we took a post event trip to Equinox, a bar located at the highest peak of Singapore), there are a lot more things happening tomorrow.

Sonic on your cellphone!

That’s how things should be done - mobile phones need some retro loving. They have a footprint small enough to convert to java plus the nostalgia of such games reach mobile phone owners who have purchasing power. Yup, we’re talking about retro gamers who were discovering gaming in the early 90’s.
Take a look at Sonic […]

vNes: Cellphone NES Emulator

Emulation gods Vampent has released vNes, the portable emulation software for your mobile phone.
The app works for J2ME as well as the S60 platform. I’m prolly gonna install this on my N-Gage QD later today. Funny - coz I have more fun playing third party emulations rather than the N-Gage games themselves.
But more on […]

The popular console game that throws creative artist (i.e. vandal) Trane into a dull and gray urban world will soon be ready for release.

Halo’s Master Chief on your mobile

There’s really no room to negotiate when a Needler is pressed onto your head. This is exactly what Microsoft did to IN-FUSIO, leading mobile applications developer for phones. Of course, they had very little choice but to say yes. Well, there’s also that hefty sum of money involved but again, who could say no to […]

Sony PSP s-bracket cases

By my time (GMT +800) its Friday geek dinner night. Today a friend brought along what I consider to be the ultimate Sony PSP carrying solution. Now the real product is called the s-bracket case from Capdase. But combined with another s-bracket, you get the Twins Case.
