Nokia N-Gage

Check the dumping hardware overview for a list of known preservation hardware.

If you need help, please come chat with us on the VGPC or No-Intro discord servers.

This section should have a short description or overview, such as:

Dumping System X carts is fairly easy, and if you already have Hardware X, only a few modifications are required.

or

Dumping System Y discs is quite involved, and requires specialized hardware and software.

Numbered list of methods, with the top one being the most preferred/used method

1. Compatible SD reader and aaru PC software [doesn't work on some games]
2. [lower fidelity method - dump the loose files somehow]

This can make an aaruf file, which you can extract metadata from, plus the disk image and CID, CSD and OCR metadata (some of the last three are needed to emulate/bypass DRM?)

Using homebrew on an N-Gage? Files should match those extracted from a proper disk image made using aaru.

Indicate whether the game version/revision info can be determined through ring codes, label stamping, printed on chips, embedded in ROM etc

Once you've dumped your games, it's time to generate and submit metadata to a preservation project for validating and cataloging. See the dump submission instructions for more information.
