N-Gage Arena: Nokia’s Tomi Huttula / Games On Deck
“Following our earlier Nokia coverage, which included an interview with Nokia’s director of games publishing, Gregg Sauter, and an editorial from Dr Mark Ollila, Director of Technology and Strategy and Head of Games Publishing, in this second interview with a Nokia executive, Games On Deck talks to Tomi Huttula, Head of Arena Product Management for Nokia, about the new incarnation of N-Gage Arena.”I’ve actually had a bit of a chance to fiddle about with a (very) early version of the N-Gage software. It’s in far too early a stage to post anything resembling proper impressions of, but it’s very similar to the Xbox 360’s interface. I’m not entirely sure how well that idea works with the concept of mobile gaming, which involves far shorter play periods, so it’ll have to be seen to what extent the games and system are going to allow players to easily drop in and drop out. I’m sincerely looking forward to finding out.
