I was thinking that it would be a fun way to study Korean by putting an RPG on my phone. Something like the old NES Dragon Warrior. Is this possible? Would I be able to save it on my phone or have play it online and pay out my arsehole?

Well I threw caution to the wind and did the deed. Everyone always warned me about the dangers of pressing the internet button on my phone... sheesh.

I got a game... called "Monsterboy" seems pretty much like Legend of Zelda or Dragon Warrior.

In the process of web searching first I found this which I really really really really really really really really really really really really ...

really want...

I wonder if you can get it here in the ROK?

DOOM on your cell phone... and it was out in 2005.

wow...

This bit of technology definitely passed me by back home.

Now that I have DOOM on my phone I want to get this 'Mecha combat game too. It looks like it's a bit like Battletech with less zazzz.

In Hangoongmal it is pronounced "metalk'ombaet"

메탈컴뱃


I've tried to locate it in a couple different places but whenever I try to download it from the web... yes I managed to get a Bugs and a Daum account... it prompts me with some message about device incompatibility...

I doubted that as the game was made in 2002 and is Java based... not that I really know what that means, but my phone can play other Java based games, such as DOOM...

So I called the customer service center and with a little help from my manager coteacher (God Bless her soul) we confirmed my suspicion that it is simply out of ciruclation... at least on there website... that would be Daum... and/or Bugs...

so where else could I look for this game? would it be possible to find it via a Korean p2p? if so how would i install it?

I was hoping that you would post something constructive as you seem pretty savvy with Korean tech, or you seem to know a lot of tech savvy Korean folks.
