Why is it always the same argument of phones hurting handhelds because of the masses of cheap games?
Has anybody ever thought about phones and tablets still being just phones and tablets? Maybe people don't want to carry another portable device or are busy with their messaging (I know almost all people on public transportation are) and then start a cheap game every once in a while. It's definitely not like mobile gaming on smart devices is way more popular than dedicated gaming devices. It may sell more but I won't believe anyone saying mobile games are played more (I played some stuff for 2 minutes and never touched it again; paying $2 with a gift card didn't hurt me) or deliver any kind of atmosphere.
Making gaming handhelds more capable and interesting, that should be something to think about. Not talking about how everybody wants casual mobile endless bird popping games, labeled with "Mario", and definitely not "AAA" on phones; make the AAA gaming more like phones and you have a real "Fusion".
