That article seems to be discussing the transition of gaming from feature phones to smartphones. It doesn't really indicate that smartphones are directly impacting handheld consoles. The decline of the PSP might be seen as evidence that some people are gaming on smartphones instead of Sony's platform, but the DS is still holding strong.
The fact that smartphone gaming is growing so quickly does seem to jibe with my pet theory that smartphones are beating Nintendo to the new users in handheld gaming. The 3DS vs, pocket PCs is shaping up to be the killer battle of 2011.

You're actually very correct, in fact they've won already. The big mistake I made when I originally championed the Wii and I think other people are sort of making with smart phones without noticing, is deeming everything else irrelevant. But in principle you're absolutely right, what is also important is the value that exists in differenciation, sometimes there is more opportunity there than we originally think.
