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
>
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.

settings and personal information in the private tab in

creation on your device.
