Looks like it’s time to don your fanciest ball gown there, Sally, because the Nokia N-Gage has just shipped it’s millionth unit. Yeah, no foolin’. I’ll spike the punch.
Nokia announced today that it has shipped 1 million N-Gages to retail locations around the globe. This figure represents the cumulative ship-in tally of the N-Gage and the N-Gage QD, not sales.
A Nokia spokesperson elaborated on the sales figures, telling GameSpot, “This is the number that we’ve sold to our distributors and retailers, It’s hard to give an exact number that are in consumers hands, but I can say that right now there is very little inventory in the sales channels and we are seeing steady reorders from our retail partners.”
Well, hot on the heels of this exciting press release is yet another feather in the cap for Nokia. It seems as if a retail location in Washington, D.C. has sold the twelfth N-Gage phone unit! Oddly enough the purchaser is none other than Secretary of State Donald Rumsfeld, who had this to say about his acquisition:
“What the fuck is this thing? I walk in to ask where the Orange Julius is, and the punk behind the counter shoves this contraption in my hand! It’s got super glue on it for God’s sake, how am I supposed to get this off? Oh Jesus, it’s starting to burn! Somebody get me a bottle of aloe vera lotion, quick!”
A proud day in video gaming history. Kind of like the day they released Daikatana. Or when they dumped those copies of ET into that landfill.
bahthose numbers are just as skewed as the hilary clinton book sale figures.
pie?not to get off topic, but didn’t there used to be slices of the day or sumthin?
nopeThere were never ‘slices of the day’, please report to the ministry of truth for reporo…. a free boat.
screw thatsave the boat for the uptown asshole with time to go boating. I’m a fat assed, pathetic, virgin of a loser, and I want me some porn, dammit!
