homaretz: "You see, we have a problem in the mobile gaming sector, thanks to you. You would rather buy a pumpkin spice latte a few times a week and enjoy it for a few minutes than buy a game that you can play as long as you would like."
Here's my 2 cents..
1) the controls on my phone suck. I don't need to wear out the buttons so i don't buy games for it.
2) Mobile games (
my experience) are non-transferable from the phone
3) Very low quality, tiny screen, hard on my hands, etc.
4) My phone is a phone. See reason #1.
5) Due to prices of data bandwidth, i don't want to pay for internet twice just so my handheld device can check email or stream low quality video from youtube. As such buying/downloading would be annoying (
thankfully there's microSD, IF you can download it via another means)
6) I try not to get too much into a technology or fad until it's proven itself. As such, Mobile games have proven they suck so far.
Mind you I'm not using a smartphone where the mobile games are at, so maybe I'm thinking more the phone games vs app store, since my phone doesn't run android...
