Filed under: , , ,

Personalization is all the rage in games these days, what with Miis, face-mapping and, er, laser-etched portables showing up all by the place. Now Nokia’s jumping into the personalized gaming, uh, game with the Yamake initiative for the new N-Gage platform.

According to the announcement, Yamake mini-games (because “ya make” ‘em … get it?) will lets users add “personal subject matter such as text, pictures, sound clips and movies from the mobile

device or PC” to create picture puzzles, trivia quizzes and more. certain, it doesn’t sound like anything you can’t already do online, but the ability to create and share these little personalized games easily on your phone might be cool. Trust us … even whether you don’t get it, your little sister will love it.
