Mobile gaming > dedicated handheld :P

I do hope we get Pokemon on iOS soon tho :( I don't think it'll happen unfortunately.

You put that emoticon afterwards but you aren't exactly lying.

People praised Bravely Default, but there is no reason it couldn't have been on my iPhone. RPGs play incredibly well on touch screen devices.

 

 

As for Pokemon, the only thing that would worry me is that it will go from a 2 version game to a 1-version game with IAP in order to get additional Pokemon, although I won't lie to you, I would happily pay $1.00extra to get Mewtwo in Pokemon Y instead of having to complete the game first.

I'm definitely serious yeah, had my iPad for a day and the gaming on it is fantastic fun. At the end of the day mobile/portable gaming to me should be short fun games for on the go, and it offers that brilliantly. Not saying it can't do the more in depth games, I just think they're suited to PC and Consoles more.

And yeah, one thing I dislike is IAP and F2P and all that jazz, I just wanna buy the game outright, one advantage dedicated handhelds have right now.

Square-Enix have good luck selling $15-$20 full scale titles, so maybe those aren't too far off, although if you search you will find plenty. Even many of those free games with tons of IAP can be played without spending any cash.

$17 for FFVI + Achievements + all GBA content, upgrades gameplay (Cyan is FINALLY useful!!!) AND top notch audio quality? You bet your ass I bought that game the first day.
