Have you even played any of these games? You do realize they're designed around consoles with buttons right? Do you even know how the mobile market works? Hint: $40 games don't sell and piracy is huge. Sony and MS will be long gone from the home console market before Pokémon released its final game. I just hope they invent some new colors in the meantime. In fact with the rise of digital games and streaming services I wouldn't be surprised at all if handhelds outlived home consoles. But hey, I'm sure God of War can easily move to mobile if Monster Hunter will do the same. |
Good job reading everything I posted:
"I'm personally absolutely sure that that market will disappear in a couple of years and for good reason, with the way technology is developing it is becoming clearer everyday that dedicated gaming handhelds are becoming entirely pointless, almost everybody has a smartphone and tablets are growing more and more popular as well and there is no relevant feature that the 3DS or Vita have that a smartphone or tablet with a simple button add-on couldn't do just as well or even better."
And guess what, pricing models can change and if piracy was deemed a big problem then we wouldn't have huge parts of the industry moving towards mobile already, especially in Japan.
You're acting as if the idea of releasing full console level games on mobile is completely foreign, when games like GTA San Andreas or DQVIII have already released on there.
And in what world are dedicated handhelds less affected by digital games and streaming services? Since their games are smaller and simpler they are in fact a lot more in danger from those things.
But hey nice of you to bring Sony and MS into this like a good Nintendo defender, cause my point here was totally to attack Nintendo...
