Well Hungarian [and Long Wer] don't have either
phonemically. I think H. even don't have [w] in
any positions and [N] appears only in the cluster [Ng] and [Nk].

I'd vote for [N] but only in clusters of prenasalized velars, if you
want it to be easily pronouncable.
[w] is counfusable with [u] and [v] for a speaker whose natlang
doesn't have a [w].
