The time has come for Nokia to announce the shutdown of their gaming service commonly known as Ni-Gage.

The killing time is set for 2010, but fans of the system can buy games and download them until September 2010. On the other hand, the online N-Gage community, which is pretty big, will be up until the end of 2010.

After the shutdown, the only place where you’ll be able to find games is at the Ovi Store, because Nokia has confirmed that it won’t publish any new games. As the singer would say… “Another one bites the dust!”
