Red Faction

Red Faction N-Gage is a 2003 port of the first Red Faction game to Nokia's N-Gage platform.

The port was developed by John Romero and Tom Hall's Monkeystone Games studio.

Nokia's N-Gage (2003) was an ambitious attempt to combine a mobile phone with a dedicated gaming device, but an awkward "sidetalking" phone design and a small, expensive game library led to commercial failure within a couple of years. That short lifespan and low adoption make complete N-Gage games — sold on small MMC memory cards rather than traditional cartridges — a genuinely obscure and hard-to-find collecting niche today.

Gamevaro tracks Red Faction for Nokia N-Gage with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding Red Faction to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NGAGE release dates back to 2003.

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Red Faction, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nokia N-Gage titles.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
