Dear friends:
I need help with space impact kappa. i was frankly surprised with quality of this game so i downloaded and installed it in my phone. I bought the license full and the game was unlocked for trial. I assumed this means free pass to enjoy the whole game and every and each stages, but sadly i only can play the FIRST stage!!!!, cause when y start the second stage an error message appears saying ” space impact kappa base exited with an error”. When i click on more info appears the following message ” space impact kappa closed; KERN-EXEC 3.” i TRIED A LOT OF TIMES TO RE INSTALL THE GAME AND N-GAGE BUT IT´S ALWAYS THE SAME RESULT. I´m very dissapointed cause i paid for the game and i get exactly the same i had with trial. Can anybody help me with this? Is there any solution? i´m begginig to feel defrauded.
Thanks in advance.

you said the last batch of Activation Codes was sent on March 14, but I registrated on 29 Feb, still haven’t get the activation code!
(I only got first confirm mail)

I hate waiting but I’ll do this for N-gage
I never do homework or go to school. I only play game online at N-gage arena. Never sleep or eat. I only win prizes at Online Tourney. I never give up my Ngage.
I always here.

Cant wait to see if I get an “N-Gage is LIVE!” text message tommorow morning!
There should also be an “Get N-Gage” button on the mobile site when its live.
March 30th, 2008 at 1:07 am
To help make the wait more bearable I was thinking that I’d ask some random and yet well thought out questions that I’m sure will be an interesting read for everyone and make time pass quicker ^^
1. You have any idea of how big the team working on the N-Gage application is, ikona?
2. I heard from a friend here on N-Gage.com that while the old N-Gage and arena were active - tournaments and competitions with prizes were held every week. You know anything about how often we’ll see this happen as the new N-Gage goes live?
3. While I know that you probably couldn’t get us detailed information on what improvements and such that the team is currently working on, is there anything you CAN say just to give us a hint on what’s going on behind the closed doors other than sorting out all the bugs? Or perhaps there aren’t many improvements going on (I was thinking like maybe they’re tweaking the interface or adding a hotlink to the forums or a live chat) - just making sure that everything works…?
4. Will there be any changes to the homepage? Like I dunno, a revamped look (I do like the current one though), something added or something removed, a shop to purchase games right from the Game Showroom?
5. Will you be downloading the N-Gage application yourself and if so - what phone are you using and what games do you look forward to?
6. What’s your position, really? It feels as if I have probably asked a few questions that you may not be able to answer depending on who you really are and what you really do
Tell us a little about yourself because I for one have no clue - you’re just ikona the blogger to me ^^
March 30th, 2008 at 2:24 am
and will this version work on 5700/6120c ? what can you say ?
March 30th, 2008 at 2:24 am
а я могу сейчас через visa virtuon купить space impact kappa base или лучше ждать полную версию? Тело n958gb
March 30th, 2008 at 2:43 am
Hope it launches tomorrow - must be soon? This Week?
March 30th, 2008 at 2:50 am
I am very very mad now! Your web site does not work true as your n-gage first access!!!
Today I entered the site and go https://www.n-gage-news.com/N-Gage/country.aspx?NPID=2041 I wanted to get new n-gage app.
I choose region, country, enter e-mail, then continue, on step 2 filled in a forms, then Do you have an N-Gage Player Name? enter No, and press confirm profile. Your site TOLD me “You must select a country and enter a valid email address.” BUT I ENTERED!!! then I refilled forms again and “Profile update complete”.
BUT!
1) When I go “whould you like to create an n-gage player name?” this page can not load and I cann’t create a player name.
2) When I go https://www.n-gage-news.com/N-Gage/country.aspx?NPID=2041 enter e-mail and press continue I get the information about me and my telephone number WITHOUT ENTER A PASSWORD OR SOMETHING ELSE
so WTF >_

March 30th, 2008 at 3:05 am
demetrius calm down. Read few messages before u leave any comment. Ngage first access is ended. Forums are closed, no registrations- we are waiting 4 ngage go live! The final moments! Countdown u know what i mean? Be patient
March 30th, 2008 at 3:19 am
hehe I’ve just noticed i can read the messages which are awaiting moderation
I was checking the ngage blog using my cell phone and i wrote the comment there. After this I turned on my PC and what I see? - my comment is awaiting moderation and Demetrius’es comments are not visible as well
heh
March 30th, 2008 at 3:20 am
when it start? It is real good graphic?
March 30th, 2008 at 3:46 am
güzel ama oyun indirmek zor basaramadım
March 30th, 2008 at 3:49 am
well… Call me genious or stupid, I don’t care, I think I just found out how to solve problem with buying n-gage games via phone bill… Ya know, there are countries with max premium sms LESS THAN REQUIRED. Example? My country, Poland. Max premium sms is 9 zl (zl-polish currency) and games are 12 and 18 zl. Both 12 and 18 are > than 9 and when I try to purchase the whole game licence I get errors. I think this problem is known to people who haven’t credit card and live in countries with such a low max premium smses… But this is serious problem, it needs to be removed. And the solution I just found out is simple… Two smses! 9 zl twice instead of 18. 6 zl twice instead of 12. Dont you think it’ll work? Ikona, please e-mail it to somebody who do cares about this n-gage app, to somebody who works with it. Just to make sure they know this, I’m almost sure it’ll help.
Cheers
Zergo
March 30th, 2008 at 4:57 am
@ikona, thx for deleting my post
but for what button “Get n-gage” is?
and why there is no russian language in n-gage app and games? what reason?
March 30th, 2008 at 5:53 am
as zergus said, it can be a problem for ppl who aint got credit cards- most of players are still at schools- dont work yet, dont use cr.cards etc. If the phone bill option doesnt work - and its a common problem in few countries like Poland - there is no simple way to buy the games.. I use cr.card but.. what can they do? And They means dozens or hundreds of potential players.. There must be some other way. Any ideas?
March 30th, 2008 at 6:03 am
lots of comments r awaiting moderation.. and where’s Ikona? Celebrating the big oppening?
i hope! heh. Cheerz! 
March 30th, 2008 at 6:13 am
My question is
Whether N-gage will work on Nokia E90?
As far as I know E90 have 3d chip
March 30th, 2008 at 6:18 am
Ikona
I´ll wait as you say for the new N-Gage go cause is very promising. But i have a question about it. when the official version be released, will i be able to install the game and use the same activation code they gave me trough e mail on the new version?
Thanks a lot
Leo
p.s. i read in the n-gage forum there was some knew issues about the first access, that look very familiar to my problem with kernell error. In fact, a forum member related the same error for the game creatures of the deep( brilliant graphics and environment, with a lilttle problem: you don´t hear birds in the sea, you hear seagulls !!!).I hope this issue be solved in the newer go live version , to avoid a purchase refund. Some of the coming games are awesome( almos unreal). Bye, friend.
March 30th, 2008 at 6:56 am
Lots of questions!
@Demetrius - That is not the “real” website, that is only the site where you sign up to receive the Newsletter. So those links won’t work during this quiet period.
@DJ - No I’m in marketing, the programmers are busy
@wieju - Ah, interesting. I thought maybe you were psychic.
@Conra
1 - Not sure exactly. There are people working on N-Gage in offices in at least four countries, maybe more. I can ask.
2 - I know redrum is putting together a schedule of tournaments and events, similar to the original effort.
3 - It is a mystery!
4 - The website will change, and you will be able to buy games directly from it, yes.
5 - Of course! I have an N-Gage N81 8GB. In First Access I was playing Creatures, Space Impact, and Block Breaker the most, but I tried all the games.
6 - I am in charge of the tubes. =)
March 30th, 2008 at 7:59 am
@ikona bugs in blog xD lag in post and descontroled…. xD
mmmm marketing GOOD JOB ^^
regards
mmm new question ¿whats your from? me from spain and 16 years old ^^
March 30th, 2008 at 8:02 am
ikona is possible n-gage comercial version launch in april? Sorry for more questions :S
March 30th, 2008 at 8:51 am
so.. i’ve just started goin the n-gage path, never had the original console, QD and other one, i bought the N81 8GB cuz its a great phone. I checked the Asphalt3, space impact and Fifa and i intalled the first access just cuz i was bored.. maybe coincidantally a lil bit.. I was never thinking about the Ngage Arena seriously. But now.. im really into it!
i bought the codt and system rush but im sure its not the end
the competitions, rankings, kool people.. its not the games only! Ngage goin Live — CAn’t wait! I hope i’ll find some friends here to contend with cuz its not so exciting we u play single.. u know. See ya online brothers and sisters. I’ll kick your *beeeeeep* LoL 
March 30th, 2008 at 8:57 am
I’m gonna answer a few questions here that nubs have asked: 1.No, you dont have to rebuy the games you have already bought. The key is saved on your phone so you dont have to do anything! Isnt that great! 2. N-Gage is compatible only with the phones in the devices page. If you dont have one, sucks to be you. 3. Nobody knows the launch date yet or what games will come next! But that doesnt stop us from guessing!
March 30th, 2008 at 9:08 am
I am asking everybody who reads this message to leave his ngage player name so we can meet online. Mine is edy_3dz. Peace;)
March 30th, 2008 at 10:37 am
imedia xval gamoushveben axal versias ..
March 30th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
Still not launched!?!?!? I expect tomorrow is the big day
I hope? Can’t wait to play HOCOTD, SIKB and SRE - I’ll do you online!!!
March 30th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
Thanks for answering my questions! I’ll be sure to come up with some more this week
And yeah if you could find out approximately how big the team is then that’d be fun to know! 
March 30th, 2008 at 12:37 pm
N-Gage release or not i just want the forums back lol, my N93i is still at repair though, i hope i get it soon
March 30th, 2008 at 4:02 pm
so langsam werde ich etwas ungeduldig. Die Monate ziehen ins Land und immernoch kein N-gage.
March 30th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
I’m scared if after buying n-gage games activation code will make the games erors
March 30th, 2008 at 11:58 pm
why do you think they ended first access? Cos they fixed the bugs and are now putting the servers up!
So there shouldnt be any errors in the final app. Unless you mess around with the file manager.
March 31st, 2008 at 12:03 am
David_K, If you can get hold of Delixe, Cal_87 or Kusia, ask them for the URL to my temporary forums. I’ll see you there.
(Sorry, my temp forums are open only to certain people!)
March 31st, 2008 at 1:16 am
you should hurry with the release of n-gage.. or else people will lose interest, maybe even forget about it. i hope the “quiet” period is very short.
March 31st, 2008 at 5:48 am
hey does ne1 know if we will be able 2 use our media keys on da n95 during games when da ngage app finaly comes out?
March 31st, 2008 at 6:00 am
oya i missed out on da survey 4 da 1st access bt i think it was great . Cant wait 4 it 2 go live
March 31st, 2008 at 6:20 am
how long DO comments wait to be moderated? what is approxiately the working hours of the N-Gage Arena employees? And what countries do you have people working in?
BTW, will we get more local forums? Not everyone can type, write and read english.

Also, it would be fun if there would not be only global leaderboards, but local ones too! From Global -> Regional/State -> Country -> City. It shouldnt be too ard, as it would just look at your account info for your home town.
More fun would be to be able to compare different regions, countries and cities!
Which are better Pinball players? Helsinki or Stockholm? Or perhaps New York?! *dun Dun DUNNN!*
March 31st, 2008 at 10:37 am
@ikona, sorry for stupid posts
March 31st, 2008 at 10:44 am
How’s it going over there Ikona? All well for the transfer?
March 31st, 2008 at 11:40 am
Is your temp forum open for me? Jayd
March 31st, 2008 at 11:53 am
I don’t know about local leaderboards. Just how many people do you expect to be playing these games? HAHAHAHA Everyone would be ranked #1 in their own city. Unless, of course, you live in a major city, in which case you’d be either #1 or #2.
March 31st, 2008 at 1:15 pm
MrCricket - if you are the cricket i know of, then follow the same instructions as David K. I’ll catch you there.
March 31st, 2008 at 8:36 pm
I submitted my phone to Nokia Care just today. I was informed that all data installed and pre-installed will be deleted during the repair. So that means my Hooked on Creatures of the Deep game will be totally deleted. Is there anyway I can download it again???? Please help.
March 31st, 2008 at 8:46 pm
Hamstring — You will need to reinstall your game, but you should not need to purchase it again because Activation Codes are meant to carry over from First Access to launch. If you need to download the game again, you can do so on the website as well.
April 1st, 2008 at 6:59 am
yep I am the one & the only cricket here.xD
April 2nd, 2008 at 8:25 pm
thanks, ikona. I’ll try to download it again if it’s still possible now that First Access is now closed. I mean I’ll try to visit the forum where I first downloaded the application. I’m hoping that it’ll work.
I miss my game so much. teehee
April 2nd, 2008 at 11:18 pm
Thanks Ikona!!! I finally got my HOCOTD installed but I got a little problem though. Everytime I entered the code it always brings me back to trial mode. Why is that? But I guess, i’ll just have to try and try again. Maybe I’d get lucky and finally get hooked on to it. teehee
April 4th, 2008 at 2:02 am
omg. My ngage application wont start. It says system error, with no other elaboration. Pls help me. What should i do? Email me devil_kw@hotmail.com thx
