This is head in the sand stuff.  The mobile market is going to explode. Tablets are niche products still depsite what people think, In the next 2 to 3 years every home will want or have one.  We shall see who is right here I guess in quite a short space of time.  Imagine how expensive the ipad 6 and other tablets will be in 3 years time... the Vita and 3DS will much cheaper.


If price point for games is relevant, entry price point is relevant in this argument too.

Do you genuinely believe IPad's will sell more than Wii U controllers and DS's? Do you still believe that Apple is king of the smart phone market? Do you really believe that Android hasn't/won't significantly fracture the smart phone / tablet user bases?

And i would certainly love to see the sales numbers on EA's Tetris vs EA's Dead Space.

 

how could you not?  ipad sold 17M last quarter during a slow part of the year which is more than wii U will do in a year (including the holiday). add to that 24M iphones last quarter which almost sounds like if you add nintendo, MS, and sony together maybe they could compete until you realize, oh fuck, you're right about apple not being king cause samsung sold 50M android smartphones last quarter.  the numbers are staggering and they don't look good for traditional gaming...
