N-Gage to make use of your phone's camera and GPS capabilities

Damian Koh | Mar 04, 2008

Nokia may be announcing new gaming titles left and right, but I think one of the burning questions, besides the official launch date of the platform, is the roadmap and future of N-Gage.

It appears that NokNok had an exclusive with Will Shen, where the head of Production for N-Gage in North America revealed that the Finnish company intends to develop games which will make use of the imaging and GPS capabilities on a handset. According to the blog site, Shen also said that Nokia is seriously looking at location-based gaming and stressed that the concept is not a gimmick, but one which focuses on innovation.

I'm not sure about you, but I'm a big fan of Team 17's Worms World Party. If Nokia delivers what this guy just said, I can imagine my Super Sheep and Homing Missile achieve pinpoint deadly strikes anywhere in the world. Sweet.
