We've covered tonight's launch of the Nokia 5800 'Tube' phone - Nokia's first touchscreen handset. And we've talked about the fact that you'll be able to play games on it.

Fancy seeing them in action? At Nokia's Remix London event, I shot this video of the 5800 strutting its stuff on the gaming front:

The video shows the two preloaded games. One's a version of Nokia's Bounce Boing Voyage, and the other's an accelerometer-powered racing game.

The third title in the video is Gameloft's Guitar Rock Tour, played using the plectrum that comes with the 5800.

We'll have more detailed analysis on the Tube and what it means for mobile gaming shortly.
