Thanks may check it out once I've got my teeth into splatoon!

Cheers, but got rid of my vita a while back... would you say it's worth the money?

Not actually played this before... I presume it plays quite similarly to the original GTA? May have to invest with that price

I'll just stick to playing SF2 turbo on the snes mini for 70-odd quid and enjoy the other 20 games that come with it for that price!

As things currently stand with smart phone gaming, I think the controls (i.e. Touch screen) and quality of games released are the main issues facing its progression... I accept that there's a lot of gamers who utilise smart phones for gaming but IMO you wouldn't find them on forums like this... they are people who dip in and out, and for me most games available on iOS and android are lacking in depth that's seen on dedicated console games... or they're ports. Having said that, I'd imagine that smart phone gaming is a gateway to people moving to dedicated systems and PC gaming

@electrolite77
100% agree... in fairness I think Sony and MS are sensible to appeal to the gamers who are interested in raw power as well... I've personally never been interested in PC gaming as keeping an old console for nostalgia purposes and the memories formed playing those games is the priority for me

@MegaTen
Yeah agreed, although Nintendo definitely are guilty of iterative updates as well... as long as they can diversify in ways that are meaningful and fun to gamers then they will continue to see success... I definitely see a switch successor being inevitable but would be happy with that so long as the games are good quality and plentiful (probably the most important aspect of the switch's launch I'd say)

@MegaTen
I think you're right in terms of the need for care and potential pitfalls with regards to the ever-evolving game industry... however for me, switch proves that consumers aren't purely interested in power. Instead, many people (admittedly not all) prioritise the overall experience over raw processing power, and this is why switch is succeeding IMO... I'd much rather play oceanhorn (or any game for that matter) on a dedicated system like switch rather than on my smartphone... but maybe I'm just old-fashioned!

@ThanosReXXX
Yeah can see that happening, but I wouldn't want to mod it as I reckon the minis will likely be collectors items in the not-too-distant future... I think if they don't somehow get the rare games on there then it'd be a massive shame as the rare games really did represent a massive chunk of the best games on that system!

@ThanosReXXX
Nice list... only one I can think to add would be excitebike64
