Yes it does. Now just buy one already you flipfloppingfiend!
Lol, be grateful that you're not my irl family and friends (most of whom could care less about tech), since I verbally change my mind around them about what I should buy every single day.
Alternate Universe Social Game Spin-off at that. Nothing to write home about, IMO. Every S-E series seems to be getting a Social game series these days.
Yay. Now we can have Game Center officially acknowledge our friendship. Yay.
Also, anyone interested in fighting games and turnbased strategy, there is this weird game called BattleCon that is played with cards to simulate a Street Fighter type game. It is really neat. Completely luckless, characters are very unique, and games are pretty quick. There is no async play, but you can battle live, and there is local and an AI arcade mode. It is a little hard to learn though. Wish the tutorial put you in the game to show you how to play, but it just a cartoon of two of the characters explaining the rules.
As for me, I'm stuck with a iPod Touch. Am I right in thinking games such as Baldurs gate are only compatible with the iPad?
And that's not even considering how impractical it would be on a[n iPod Touch's] tiny screen.
Anyway, I'm of the belief there are plenty of iOs games out there for me - I've recently downloaded all of the demos for those Kairosoft games for one thing, but there are many more games I've got my eye on.
The only thing that puts me off buying some games is that reviews tend to wail about bugs that aren't fixed and compatibility issues.

Unfortunately yeah, this one is iPad only (and I have a vague impression it's 3rd gen+ only?)
You can also get the same game on PC - it's called the "enhanced edition" - new characters, cut scenes and etc. I drained a 100% battery in one sitting yesterday getting reacquainted with the game.
Kairosoft are awesome. Love them to death - I recommend Dungeon Village, personally, though Game Dev Story is the classic.
Well I had Game Dev Story before I tried out the demos and it's certainly my favourite of the lot. The problem with the demos is that they give you such a short time frame and the demo often ends before I can get a good feel for the game. On top of that, I find some are pretty hard to control by touch, and some are pretty complicated.
The ones I got on best with were Epic Astro Story, Dungeon Village Story, Venture Towns Story and especially Grand Prix Story.
Does anyone know of any decent $100 (U.S.) tablets? I'm not expecting a powerhouse or anything, & I know absolutely nothing in this price range would be good for gaming.
I just want something that has a better browser than the 3DS (which shouldn't be too hard to find), that's capable of running YouTube, & might have some simple games for time wasting (chess, checkers, solitaire, ect).

If I were you I would spring for a Kindle Fire ($159) or Nook Tablet (also starts at $159). Although these aren't the latest and greatest of either model, I have a hunch they will serve your purposes much better than some non-name brand, cheap Android tablet. Unless you plan on doing any sort of work on these devices, they're worth the extra $60.
If you want my top recommendation for best 7-inch tablet for the money, I would have to go with the Nexus 7. At $200, it's basically everything you could ask for from a tablet. Other than good tablet apps. But that's another story.
TL;DR version: if you want a great, general purpose tablet, buy a Nexus 7. If you want an OK consumption device for less money, buy an first-gen Nook or Kindle. Please don't buy anything cheaper than those.
^OK then. If I manage to scrounge up the extra $60, I'll probably get the Kindle Fire, & if not, I'll probably just get games for my 3DS (although I heard Polaroid has a decent $100 one...).

You might be satisfied with a sub-$100 tablet, but I couldn't guarantee you would. I had a first-gen Kindle Fire and it served me well for reading the Internet/books, and it wasn't bad as a Netflix player, either. Try to do anything more than that, with it, though, and its limitations start to show.
Then I'm kind of a tablet snob, so most things actually aren't as bad as I make them out to be.
So, anybody playing Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour yet? If so, add me on Game Center (Slapshot82) so we can blast each other away a few times, as I'll be on it pretty heavily over the next few days for my upcoming review.
Sky Raiders is another Must Have iOS title too. It's only $5 and it's a full arcade/simulation flight title on iOS that is home console quality - love it!
Just to throw my two cents into the argument - I've got the 4th Generation iPad (The New iPad, or Retina Display iPad.... whatever) and it absolutely destroys Vita in graphics, power and accessibility. Then again, it is the most powerful tablet on the market too, so I guess that's to be expected.
Don't Look Back is dope (blame Tom Haverford for my use of that word) when shared with family via iPad mini on Christmas Eve. Try it next year; guaranteed to make you the life of the party.
Sonic 4 epII is pretty fun as well, so long as you provide your own soundtrack.

Yep, and it's way more expensive too.
By any chance, do you know how many games actually utilize the device's power? Because I can't think of anything outside of Real Racing 3.
