Throwback to Java games on Nokia phones

Hi Viners, I was going through my old things today and found my Nokia 5130 Xpress Music from the 2010s. Man, those were some memories! I must've played over 1000 Java games on it. (No, I’m not exaggerating.) Anyone else remember those times - downloading games from random "-wap-" sites, waiting for the download of that jar file (there was also another format I can't remember) to finish, and the joy of completing a game’s story? Some of the games I still remember are: - Soul of Darkness - Prince of Persia (3 or 4 games) - The Mummy (series of 2 or 3 games) - Diamond Rush - Narnia series - Harry Potter series - Metal Slug series and Contra series - Ben 10 - Some Sims games The graphics were simple, but that never stopped the fun. What games do you still remember playing?

Ah Xpress music. Hearing the term after so long. Also, I forgot what games I had apart from prince of persia. Just the feeling.

great. I missed out on playing God of War though. Back then, I was around 11 or 12 and wasn’t really aware of what was happening in the gaming community or western media culture.

Was curious what are the best apps/products that are no more around, but were great at one point. I feel like there might be some insights here if everybody chimes in, maybe something we need to bring back alive?

[Thread] Did you have a wish as a kid that went unfulfilled that now you can afford but don’t have the same interest anymore?

I’ll go first, getting that old PSP, the one which had WiFi in built. Or maybe PlayStation 2 which was like 5k-6k back then. Now, I could get a PS5 or buy games to play on my PC, but the feeling is lost. Just like my childhood. I guess I lived a part of my childhood today. Went on a walk and had a Cornetto IceCream, which back then I didn’t have the money for and had to buy an Orange/Cola IceCream. Then, I walked around my society. Saw a few kids playing football and instantly teleported back to when I was a kid. Now that child is gone and the dream has too. But still, it feels good remembering that 5 year old me would be proud of adult me, and that’s what truly matters. 🥰
