I think you're wrong on this. In the past the only way to play games on the go was to have a dedicated portable really. Smartphone games honestly are pretty decent for what they intend to do ... which is to burn a quick 20-30 minutes (even though some phone games can be quite addicting and can be played for long sessions too). People generally don't have like hours on end to play a video game outside the house. There's going to be nothing "easy" about the next-gen for Nintendo, this is going to be a war. Smartphone games are also huge brand properties these days, there's more marketing for phone games than for anything else in the industry, even the biggest budget console third party games. I see more marketing for phone games. |
I'm not bashing mobile games. I think they're great. But they are not like handheld games. Not at all. They are designed in a completely different way. That's why it's so easy to spot a mobile title ported to a handheld device. They aren't bad. They are different. Very different. There is a market for mobile games, and it's a much bigger market, but there is definitely still a large market for gaming on a handheld and it's indepentent of the mobile market.
I also never said it would be "easy," so you're quoting nothing.
