Far from killing off traditional dedicated portable games console , the casual tsunami of iOS and Android phone and tablet gaming is set to breathe new life into Sony and Nintendo hand helds , and home consoles .
You see in GameClub everybody plays , and the more people play thanks to iOS and Android the more they want to play , and this eventually includes core gaming . You may start on the soft stuff with your Angry Birds , but you will eventually be introduced to the hard stuff , and find yourself trying to beat your first Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus sub boss for the nth time when you hit that core gaming zone ...and you are transformed from casual gaming grub to a beautiful ninja core gaming butterfly ( add harder analogy as appropriate)
The reality is competition breeds excellence , and weeds out obsolescence , Sony took the console gaming crown because it had competition from Sega and Nintendo in the 90s , and Sega and Nintendo owned the video game arena since the early 80s. That level of formidable competition is what made Sony work harder . And later Microsoft work harder to steal some of Sony's success.
Now we have a similar situation with the so called dominance of video gaming by iOS and Android devices , this is not to be feared this is to be applauded , for this level of competition is what will kick Nintendo , Sony and Microsoft where it hurts .. in the bank balance .. and make them strive for better results.
Had it not been for Apple`s success , there would be no indie scene of bedroom coders , scoring millions in sales with their fart apps , these guys and girls are going to progress to coding for other platforms so everyone wins in the end.
And there will be casualties , but that is the way of the PC and Video games industry , which thrive on success , think how your PC has been changed by the success of Apple , or how Windows 8 is so touch based following iOS success on iPad , in the same way we will see tablet and phone gaming success reVitalise (pun intended ) video gaming on dedicated hand helds .
There is one thing business types never get , that gaming is for life and every real gamer wants to play every game on every available platform . They gotta catchem all , and most importantly if your platform fails you cannot blame your rivals success for that failure .. you have as they say ..been pwned!
