Good question, but yeah I didn't think about contracts. We'll see what it does but I don't think phones will be replacing portable game systems. Again, I think it's a different market. My guess is we'll see something like what we saw with the PSP--hardware sales, but why buy what you can get for free? So no software sales.

If it does and Nintendo ends up leaving hardware all together they're going to make a fuckton of cash making games for half a billion to billion units instead of a measly 100,000,000 or so.

We might not care about gaming with smartphone but for casual who only wants short mobile games those machines remove any point in having DS or PSP as separate system.
