smartphones are really smart. They're achieving the ultimate super-villain goal, rule the world

The capability to browse the internet on a smartphone is a bigger threat to dedicated gaming handhelds than games on smartphones.

Nintendo's and Sony's struggles are rooted in their fight to change the relationship between people and handhelds, but if you want to be successful, you need to adjust to consumer behavior instead of trying to change it.

Sorry for the late reply (I forget some times)

What do you mean by that? Forget all those shenanigans and focus on gaming only? If so, I agree.

I said this in the other thread, but no wonder GBA sold a lot. A 2003 ad they were priced at 59.99. Just one year later PSP would be 250! Maybe to go mega cheap is the way again. Forget 3D, GPU, CPU... go to the gameboy route.

I could be talking rubbish though, market changed a lot since then.
