Nokia's Snap Mobile development platform for multiplayer games will be integrated with the J2ME (Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition) Wireless Toolkit as well as the Java System Content Delivery Server and the Java Enterprise System, the companies announced at the JavaOne conference in San Francisco.

The companies intend to pave the way for development and delivery of more mobile multiplayer games, said to Juan Dewar, senior director of product marketing in the consumer and mobile systems group of Sun.

The combination of Nokia's and Sun's technologies will provide a Solaris-based platform for mobile operators to deliver multiplayer games to their customers and create and support communities of game players.
