I don't game much on phones, save for a few card and puzzle games, but I do realize that it's a selling point for many customers, so it's good to see that WP7 will have developer support when it comes to games. Off topic: Chris did you get my PM or check your PM recently?
It's a big part. A quick look at the best sellers on Apple's App Store and it's always a large percentage of games. BTW, changed your username as per your PM.
I noticed that too. Moreover, I think game developers realize that the market for games on phones (at least smartphones) is continually evolving. I mean, devices like the iPhone are constantly upping the ante in processing power and features. And while stand alone gaming devices like the DS and PSP might dominate the market now the need or move toward one device that does all (i.e., smartphone) is surely becoming a reality. Thanks. I appreciate it.
