DS vs Smartphone

That just further proves my point, 3DS has more quality games then smartphones do.

It further proves the point that Nintendo is worried about all the same things i and others said they should be.
And you were wrong that it is not competition to them.

The argument that they have a higher percentage of highly rated games is asinine. I don't know how metacritic ratings work but when i see them bragging about how many titles are rated 70s or above that is not impressive. In my mind 70s are a C. It takes the minimum amount of effort to get a C.

Also if you read the article it stated some once top tier games for Nintendo handhelds that were made available on iPhone at 1/6th the price or less.
The World Ends With You and Phoenix Wright being the ones i remember now i'm sure more were mentioned. I believe some Final Fantasy title was mentioned.

Sure Nintendo might recognize smartphones as competition, but it just isn't showing. There is no debate here, its just facts. And man, the comparison for quality of games is undeniable. smartphones are riddled with horrible games, good games are few and far between. But as the closing point, even though Nintendo recognizes smartphones as competion, they aren't, and sales just don't support that. And who cares if you see someone out in public playing on their phone...they have a 3DS at home!

Nintendo should hire you Link since you are smarter then they are.

"Nintendo recognizes smartphones as competion, they aren't"

I am still laughing.

I have to admit, when given a choice of getting a game for my DS or iPhone, I go the iPhone version. It's a lot cheaper and always with me.
