Spore Origins, The Sims 3 and Tomb Raider Underworld for N-Gage

As Stu just reported from the Nokia Games Summit in Rome, EA Mobile has some very strong opinions on the N-Gage platform. It made it clear that EA Mobile wants to get more active with N-Gage, but is fighting an uphill battle against Nokia's system.

But, as proof of EA's commitment, it just announced that some of its biggest IPs, including FIFA 09, Spore Origins, The Sims 3 and Tomb Raider Underworld, are coming to the N-Gage platform.

"Nokia is thrilled to be bringing a tremendous roster of titles from EA Mobile to N-Gage customers around the world," commented Gregg Sauter, director of third party publishing, Nokia. "The breadth and quality of this new games line-up is testament to the strong relationship between Nokia and EA Mobile. As N-Gage accelerates its growth through 2009 and beyond we look forward to continuing our close relationship with EA Mobile to deliver even more innovative and exciting games to the global N-Gage community."

In time for the big Christmas gaming season, we can apparently expect FIFA 09, Spore Origins and Monopoly Here & Now: The World Edition to hit Nokia's virtual shelves, with the other titles filtering out over the next 12 months.

"We're delighted to extend our support for Nokia with a superb games line-up from EA Mobile for N-Gage," says EA Mobile director Peter Parmenter . "We're committed to exploring methods to make the experience of finding, buying and playing mobile games easier and more compelling and N-Gage gives us a robust ecosystem to bring to market some of EA's most popular franchises as well as those of one of our key partners, Eidos, with Tomb Raider: Underworld and Pandemonium."
