At the Nokia Games Summit, there was also some negative feedback from one of the speakers at the event; EA. The publisher feels that Nokia hasn't pushed N-Gage hard enough yet.
EA was also dissatisfied with the certification process, which is far to slow. EA sees a bright future for the platform though. It's based on a single SKU, which pushes development costs related to fragmentation out of the picture.
Later at the event, Nokia announced that it will soon launch the long expected N73 client for the platform, thus opening up another 20 million handsets.
