Games – Find and Install

Whats there: Board Games, Brain Games, Racing Games to Action Games

Where to find them: Search on Bing or Google ‘J2ME Games 320*240’

Prices: US$ 0 – 10. Most games are around US$ 6.00

Required Format: J2ME – (max file size 1MB for Nokia 3120 Classic)

Resolution: 320 by 240 pixels (320*240) – Match display resolution for other phones

 

Note:

If you purchase a game through your computer and get the game files instead of the download link, you would require a connector to connect the phone and computer. A USB cable or Blue-Tooth connection would do. It would be easy if you have already installed Nokia PC Suite.

 

How to install:

Download Link: Just follow the download link and give in the requested data and you should have the game installed in your phone in no time.

 

Game Files:

Have Nokia PC Suite: Open the folder and double click on the JAR file (‘GameName.jar’).

Don’t Have PC Suite: Connect the phone and PC. Transfer files to phone storage/memory card. Access it through the phone and it should install.

 

Alternative Method: If you have a Card-Reader to read microSD you can connect your memory-card to your PC and copy the game files (not the ZIP: Extract content first if they are in a ZIP) to the memory-card. Put in the card to the phone and run the application.

 

That’s basically it.

 

Free Pirated Games?

Yes there are free pirated games available through many web-sites. You can download through torrents or from sites such as RapidShare and 4Shared. Pirating is theft and it is wrong to steal.
