The pop up joystick would be a game changer if Apple goes through with it. Tactile buttons too, but people are able to use a touch keyboard already without much fuss, on-screen B (jump)/A (attack) buttons work fine even on a normal touch panel. People already game a ton on smartphones, I read a study where even women spend several hours a week playing games on their phone or tablet. I think it's very difficult these days to convince anyone over the age of 12 to carry around a dedicated handheld game machine with them when they all own a smartphone too. And even kids ... many kids prefer a phone/tablet too. It's a rough go. |
No, jumping with touch screens does not work fine :p
yeah my gf spends waaaaaay more time on her iPad than she does with any other gaming device (namely PC and Wii). And she likes "real" games mind you; shes spent 180h on Xenoblade, loves Donkey Kong Country and 2D Super Mario and have recently discovered Banished and sunken 20h+ on that game. But nothing beats the amount of time she spends on her iPad.
Ive seen the same trend; my gfs little cousin (9 yrs old) had a DS and a Wii, now he only have a Wii U... and mom and dads iPad.
I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!
Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
