Anyone still want to argue that non dedicated handhelds ARENT seriously hampering dedicated handheld sales? Pretty obvious they are and it will get worse, much worse... quite soon imo. |
This confuses me though honestly. I mean, cellphone games were ALWAYS big in japan.
I can't help but wonder if this is more just a demographics change.
In the long run as adults put aside games, there are fewer and fewer kids to replace them.
That said, i always thought that they would hamper dedicated handheld sales.
And console sales for that matter.
I know families that get portables instead of consoles for their kids, but make them keep em at home.
Gotta admit a couple Istore games had me intersted in getting an Ipad/Iphone.
3DS was cheaper though and has a huge ds back library.
