You can also try out new games by downloading game
trials, or enhance your gaming experience with game
extras for games already on your device.
Get started
Create a player name
You can download, purchase, and play games without
a player name, but creating one is recommended. A
player name enables you to participate in the N-Gage
community, connect with other players, and share your
gaming achievements, recommendations, and
reviews. You also need a player name to transfer your
profile details and N-Gage points to another device.
When you start the N-Gage application and connect to
the N-Gage service for the first time, you are prompted
to create an N-Gage player name. You can connect to
the network, for example, by setting your availability
by selecting Options > Set Availability > Available
to Play .
If you already have an N-Gage player name, select I
have an account, and enter your user name and
password to log in.
To create a new player name:
1. Select Register New Account.
2. Enter your date of birth, desired player name, and
password. If the player name is already in use, N-
Gage suggests a list of available similar names.
3. To register your player name, enter your details,
read and accept the terms and conditions, and
select Register .
You can also create your player name on the N-Gage
website at www.n-gage.com.
When you have created a player name, edit your
settings and personal information in the private tab in
My profile.
Data transfer charges may apply for player name
creation on your device.
