Worst gaming devices in history

Also only heard of the N Gage... And what a piece of...

Had a mate who had one and the only way he could talk on the thing was with the hands free headset plugged in...
 
I'm surprised the uDraw wasn't mentioned. That was probably the biggest reason THQ went bust.

Yeah the NGage was Everything, but a gaming device. Don't know what Nokia thought when they made that POS.

Since then they have not attempted more "gaming" devices.
 
ngage wasnt too bad imo ! now the virtual boy, thats another story

Surprised the VR Virtual Boy isn't on the list. It was only released in Japan and North America though, but it was a huge commercial failure and discontinued only a year after it was launched. Only 22 games were ever released.

EDIT: lol I see Dohc-WP just brought it up too.
 
I didn't find the N gage to be that bad, it was kinda awkward for calls but otherwise I didn't have any issue. I was like 12 though so I didn't make many calls, used mxit more and music.

I came to post this as well.. Great minds, eh? I do believe it was released in Europe as well, I remember reading about it in a GB publication back when mags were still a thing.
 
N-Gage. Heh. Now that brings back memories. My mate had one and I remember being wowed by the level of detail on a handheld device...and then nothing. Nothing ever happened with it.
 
I think an honourable mention needs to go to the MS Wireless Racing wheel for the XBOX 360. That one that works with the kinect. OMW...seriously?
