Nintendo Campho Advance

Over here, phones are about to go game crazy when the Nokia N-Gage finally hits. But in Japan, it's all so passé. The GameBoy, astonishingly popular handheld games platform that it is (around 34 million sold world-wide and counting), has so far shown little inclination to improve its station. But an attachment due to hit the shelves in Japan this December turns it into a video phone.

The Campho Advance device, which takes the form of a standard GameBoy cartridge, simply fits into the usual slot and records sight and sound with its built-in camera, earpiece and microphone. Fellow Campho Advance owners can connect to their phones and use their GameBoys as video phones over a standard connection, which may not be ideal, though there are plans for a broadband version next year.

Bye Bye N-gage
