http://www.pcworld.com/article/193831/is_apples_iphone_os_game_center_a_nintendo_ds_killer.html
APPLE slowly creeping into the major gaming arena to play with the big boys SONY & MICROSOFT & da little one
Apple Live?
Good news for Iphone gamers? Very
DS killer? No
Xbox Live didn't win the console war. Why would it win the handheld war?
It's a good service, but it's not really a killer app.

I wouldn't say a killer but I'll say that Nintendo HAS to come out with decent infrastructure - both for the 3DS and Wii 2 - Apple has done and just got serious with handheld gaming, Sony will do it for the PSP2 and has done it for PS3, and MS has of course done it since the Xbox.
The touchscreen is a horrible interface for some games. Here's what I'm thinking, iPad has bluetooth built in. Why not use the Wii or PS3 controller on the iPad?
The DS will eventually die to natural causes. Nothing will kill it.
"But as always, technology refused to be dignity's bitch."--Vance DeGeneres
The mobile gaming section and the handheld gaming section of the market will happily co-exist for a long long time. Neither device will "kill" the other.
Apple just needs to shut up and continue to make worthless products likes the Ipad... the PSP couldnt kill the DS..whats makes em think they will?
