Nokia 3310 Snake Game UPDATED Download

The Nokia 3310 has long been considered one of the world's greatest phones, and much to the delight of old-school mobile users, the device made a comeback at Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona this week.

The funny thing about the 2017 version of the Nokia 3310 is that you find yourself liking the things that you'd usually hate in more modern smartphone offerings. I mean, it wouldn't feel like the 3310 if it wasn't made of a nice and cheap-feeling plastic, so I was oddly pleased with how bargain-basement the build quality is.

In this instance, you kind of want the 3310's design to feel cheap and cheerful, mainly to ensure it distances itself as far away as possible from the modern flagship handsets of today. And that it does. It's cumbersome, tawdry and every button press reminds you just how cheap the phone really is.

In terms of the Internet, the 3310 has 2.5G, so you can surf the web with the Opera Mini browser. You can get on Facebook and Twitter if you have to, but don't expect a fluid iPhone-esque experience. And it also has good old SMS messaging and a phonebook you can store all your friends' numbers in so you can call them.

The main concern when trying out the 3310 for the first time was: "Does it come bundled with one of the most addictive games of all time: Snake?" Thankfully, I can confirm that it does. But don't get too excited.

The retro phone game has been given a makeover, and not in a good way. You now control a more animated reptile that collects red apples from various points across the screen, and in my opinion, it's way too busy now. You can even travel diagonally. The true beauty of Snake was that it was simple, and Nokia shouldn't have strayed too far from the game we all know and love. Nevertheless, the fact that it's there at all is enough to make us fall in love with the 3310 all over again.

The 3310's poor resolution ensures battery life doesn't disappoint. This thing can be charged and left lying around on standby for a month before it needs juicing up again, and you can talk for an entire day without needing to reach for the microUSB cable. It's also got a 3.5mm headphone jack for MP3 playback, something even the latest iPhone doesn't have. There's also MicroSD card slot under the battery inside the phone's casing.

You can't compare the 3310's 2 megapixel camera to those featured in smartphones of today. Think back to the first smartphone camera you ever used - that's how the 3310 feels. The device's washed out, low quality snaps look beautifully sentimental in their own right. Despite a very limited offering, the Nokia 3310's ability to take you back in time is quite possibly the phone's best feature.

The Nokia 3310 is bound to create waves in the phone market upon release, not only because of the hype of nostalgia, something that seems to be the 'in' thing with hipsters at the moment, but also because it offers something truly unique that is lacking in the smartphone industry: simplicity and the stripping back to bare essentials.

1982's Tron arcade game, based on the film, includes snake gameplay for the single-player Light Cycle segment, and some later snake games borrow the theme. After a version simply called Snake was preloaded on Nokia mobile phones in 1998, there was a resurgence of interest in snake games as it found a larger audience.

The original Blockade from 1976 and its many clones are two-player games. Viewed from a top-down perspective, each player controls a "snake" with a fixed starting position. The "head" of the snake continually moves forward, unable to stop, growing ever longer. It must be steered left, right, up, and down to avoid hitting walls and the body of either snake. The player who survives the longest wins. Single-player versions are less prevalent and have one or more snakes controlled by the computer, as in the light cycles segment of the 1982 Tron arcade game.

In the most common single-player game, the player's snake is of a certain length, so the tail also moves, and with every item "eaten" by the head of the snake the snake gets longer. Snake Byte has the snake eating apples. Nibbler has the snake eating abstract objects in a maze.

The single-player Snake Byte was published in 1982 for Atari 8-bit computers, Apple II, and VIC-20; a snake eats apples to complete a level, growing longer in the process. In Snake for the BBC Micro (1982), by Dave Bresnen, the snake is controlled using the left and right arrow keys relative to the direction it is heading in. The snake increases in speed as it gets longer, and there is only one life.

Nibbler (1982) is a single-player arcade game where the snake fits tightly into a maze, and the gameplay is faster than most snake designs. Another single-player version is part of the 1982 Tron arcade game, themed with light cycles. It reinvigorated the snake concept, and many subsequent games borrowed the light cycle theme.

Starting in 1991, Nibbles was included with MS-DOS for a period of time as a QBasic sample program. In 1992, Rattler Race was released as part of the second Microsoft Entertainment Pack. It adds enemy snakes to the familiar apple-eating gameplay.

The Nokia 3310, which originally launched at the turn of the millennium, is the latest attempt to tug at our heartstrings, part of a broader trend bringing back iconic shows and products from our youth. The miniaturized Nintendo Classic was a hard-to-find item during the holidays, and '80s stalwarts "Full House" and "Voltron" are both enjoying a revival with new episodes on Netflix.

Juho Sarvikas, chief product officer of HMD, isn't concerned that the Nokia brand might get relegated to a novelty item and believes the new 3310 will give the startup a chance to do "some fun things on social media."

The 49 euro ($51.75) 3310 boasts 22 hours of talk time and a month of standby time, 10 times the original's capabilities. Yes, it comes with Gameloft's updated version of the original Snake game, as well as the iconic Nokia ringtone.

While conventional logic would argue that the people who have a fondness for this phone would be the least likely to buy it -- most of us have moved on to slightly more sophisticated devices -- HMD believes the 3310 could win the company new Nokia fans in emerging markets, where basic phones are still common.

Though it came at the tail end of an event where HMD announced upcoming global availability of its Nokia 6 and two new lower-end models, the 3310 drew the most interest. It stands out in the age of slab-like smartphones for its curvaceous shape and old-style numeric keypad.

HMD promoted the design and quality of its smartphones, saying each was made from a single block of aluminum. It even showed an Apple-style manufacturing video with a mellow, British, Jony Ive-like narration. But at the end of the event, the biggest crowd in the hands-on section gathered around the 3310.

The new version looks like it won't disappoint longtime fans. According to Vtech's sources, the new 3310 will look very similar to the original but will have a slightly updated design that's lighter and thinner.

Viel kann es nicht, abgesehen von telefonieren und SMS zu senden/empfangen. Und dennoch gibt es ungewhnlich viel Wirbel um das Feature-Phone. Wir haben den Nachfahren des Nokia 3310 in die Hand genommen und klren die Frage: Marketing-Gag fr Nostalgiker oder sinnvolle Rckkehr zu alten Werten? 006ab0faaa
