welcome to what feels like Mobile World Congress 1999 Nokia is announcing a brand new third 3:10 again and his big highlight is the game snake again so being responsible journalists that we are the first thing we did here at MWC 2017 let's come over here to play snake all over again I just let me tape as Nokia 3310 itself it's a really cute really cool phone it isn't identical to the original 3310 but I'm not sure that everybody wanted an identical phone it's nice to have it as a throwback the first thing I notice is this isn't the classic Nokia snake which I think we all know is that I'm buried and never going to come back again I guess it has a whole bunch of I don't know if it it feels more like remix of snake I mean this is survival horror game where you're a snake eating apples but going through the levels and stuff and kind of runs counter to the whole idea of the third free time being a return to the dumb slash feature phone experience because the thing that makes the 3310 so popular today is that it doesn't have all the smart features right so I would rather just have a monochrome snake without any of these graphics without any of these simulated levels and walls and things out there I must say the apples on screen actually really cool because they're really pixelated in a cool way and maybe there's just a nostalgia speaking I think there's going to be a lot of the staff speaking around these very temples which is just super basic I mean everybody could make these but the fact that they're not ears and their code nook is just invoke so many memories for people I mean so many people would have grown up just texting and calling and playing snake under 3310 and the big powerup in this game is the scissors which slow you down and cut you which in this game weirdly enough is good thing so this survival mode actually the one that feels most faithful to the original snake even though it looks so different and it doesn't work the same way it does the general thing of accelerating speed and increasing your length as you go along did you try to spice it up with these extra explosions and things showing up on the screen but the biggest threat to your survival is generally yourself but you know I'm actually enjoying this I forget all those extra levels and you know 10-second run throughs I don't care for them but just a classic survival mode with the silly power-ups and bombs that you supposed to avoid and things I like it you know this third free tank can do other things besides just playing snake it has a calculator and it works as a camera that's actually quite terrible but it's all for in a nice way in that you always know it's been taken with your 3310 so you can think of it as like a signature filter and as a V powerup which does oh it's like a magnet for apples as cool for the lazy apple devour out there I need those scissors to survive there we go so honestly if I have any reservation about snake this version of snake it is the whole idea that oh crap they've just putting up walls and things is this whole idea that you have to cut yourself to keep going it's just not really good life advice I have to say don't run around chasing diseases guy's not even snake so obviously this isn't the snake that we all loved and grew up with is different it's more colorful it's fatter it takes corners in different ways but still just like the 3310 it's just silly and fun and just extremely hard not to like or even love it's a bit of nostalgia and at a show like MWC where it's all future talk it's all 5g and metal devices and super fast processors and etc and fast screens it's nice to just have something or wouldn't familiar ready
