Tablets are lightyears behind consoles.

You just don't want that they close the gap, first of all 5-6 years ago people had problems with running games like Final Fantasy or Chrono trigger and those were NES/SNES games, today you have games that almost reach last gen quality and I would consider that closing gap. I also want to remind you it is not just the new phones/tablets that it works on, it even works on the Iphone 5 and that thing is around 2 years old.. Iphone 6 probably will get announced in less than two weeks and it could potentially play last gen games quality wise...

This statement doesn't make much sense. I've been playing emulated SNES/NES games back during the late 90s...

On your phone?

This is why your statement didn't make much sense. Smart Phones didn't become popular until 4 years ago. Even then, the Nokia 
N-Gage was capable of running NES and SNES games via emulation, and that phone came out well over a decade ago.

Yeah but that was the N-Gage it was meant to be a gaming device aswell, smartphones today don't advertise themself as a gaming device it is just a thing that also plays games.

Yeah, but that was back in 2003. Fast forward 7 - 8 years from then. Now you're saying phones were struggling with emulators? That really was never the case. There was more power found in the iPhone than there ever was in the N-Gage.
