iphone will suffer like the PSP good hardware sales, bad software sales.
Luckily, Apple isn't relying on software sales to make money with their iPhone.

I don't expect the iPhone to have a big impact on the handheld gaming market. All Apple's little foray into gaming requires to be a success is to recover the costs of offering games and sell a few more hardware units than it would if it wasn't a gaming device.

I doubt Apple has big plans to crack into the gaming market. They're just trying to add value to their portable device in a natural way. If Apple can carve out a tiny niche in handheld gaming, it may try to pry that crack open wider in the future, though.
QFLikelihood

This is the most plausible scenario for Apple going into gaming; as a deliberate niche. And if they're successful they could last as long as the Neo-Geo.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
