Bringing back Bounce would be great. But keeping it as original as possible. I don't want to see a remake of bounce like the new snake. It's not so much fun when compared to old snake. 😅

Also, Bounce was my favourite game back then. 😁

@matteo.m Great to see these videos start to appear! I see now an added benefit to the video approach - more people can join in and it's more natural than written words; Pekka was able to give a lot of detail that in words would have filled a page!

Are you going to release a video for every question? Does that mean we'll be seeing new videos throughout the year?! Can you give us an idea of what to expect with future videos?

Cheers

The Bounce version on Nokia 5800 was really fun to play. Would be awesome to have it back on Nokia smartphones

Although I probably played Bounce only once or twice before, I still remember the game vividly till now just because it was so good at the time.

Definitely, looking forward for a new Bounce game being released keeping its originality.

I think Nokia definitely should bring back these lots of nostalgic and fun games to current devices.

I really enjoyed Angry Birds on my N8, despite the small screen by today's standards. I imagine that HMD can't bundle anything because it would be considered "bloatware"

Well if they are really willing to bring back these games they could just release it on Play Store not just for Nokia but downloadable on all the Android phones. And, for feature phones, I think the games bundled with it doesn't count as bloatware.

They can include these games in their new feature phones. And the smartphone versions can be shared via PlayStore.

I would prefer these games to stay exclusive to Nokia devices even if they are made available from PlayStore.

I think Angry Birds is available anyway, that can't be made exclusive to Nokia. In general though, I like the idea of additional things being available on the Play Store exclusive to Nokia phones (ideally I'd have them on F-Droid, but I think that's unrealistic!).

Nokia Exclusive games like Bounce and Space Impact can be made exclusive to Nokia smartphones if they plan to bring those back. 🙂
I am not saying to make Angry Birds exclusive to Nokia smartphones. 😅
But they can develop many more useful apps that can be made available for Nokia devices. Like an Audio Recorder which supports OZO Audio. But this is for another topic. 😁

@Kartik Gada the audio recorder with OZO Audio API was requested to Juho by someone in Dubai (I forgot who, excuse me) and he said that's an interesting idea, something they might be able to do. So, the idea has been transmitted (and written in this forum many many times). I would really like to see HMD provide a little more added value in the software domain rather than just rely on the Android One message.
