unfortunately the answer some day is maybe.
nobody can predict the shit taste of normies and their unrelenting desire to play stupid toddler games on a crowded bus.
Holy fuck that's cool. I imagine you'll scratch the backside screen every time you set the phone down.

A touchscreen will never be as good as a key/button or as precise as a mouse
>future of video gaming (?)
>plays knockoff moba
Imagine it, toast where you can only set it butter side down.
Mobile gaming is as garbage as it always was. This will not change a thing.
Tried playing sim racing games on my phone, controls felt so stupid. Even my old PS2 feels better.
can't even hold the phone properly
whooaaa now I can view my gacha jpgs in even higher resolution!!
>plastic
It fucking feels awful and I imagine the screen on the back will soon be unusable due to scratches.

It still doesn't solve the problem of touchscreen controls
>Playing on a touchscreen
Mobile devices are just stronger handheld consoles at this point. No need to get so triggered. Google Play has games that run and look better than anything on Switch. And gacha is the minority.
It is the future. You can even use controllers if your boomer fingers are too big.
Imagine it, being so fat you have to use food as a reference.
As if that's the biggest issue about phone "games"
You can always use controllers.
What's your issue with them? I hope you realize we're not living in 2011 anymore. Angry Birds is not the only thing available.
how much are those? id like to get that so i can pretend i have a GBA but bigger
Nah. Both models that have been shown thus far already show seams. Not to mention, the plastic is gonna be very prone to scratches.
If a company made a mobile gaming focused device that had a slide out analog stick and keyboard would you buy it?
I'm gonna half-agree. RR3 looks really amazing for a 6-year old game, even Asphalt 9 looks great. The thing is, the native controls hold their potential back. Except A9 though, that shit is great.
No. The more movable parts, the more that can break.
Except for the keyboard, you might be talking about the PSP GO.
>It is the future. You can even use controllers if your boomer fingers are too big.
Actually I'm going to use an android emulator and use cheatengine lmao
What’s the point? It just seem so frivolous: like you’d only get it to show off.
Then again, I’m more of a function over style kinda guy.
>just use a controller, that fixes everything
>not only that he straight up doesn't know the issues with phone games, he also implies I'm talking about the selection
Goddamn, we really did get flooded with a shitton of phoneposting faggots that think phones are an actual platform for games and accept all the bullshit that comes with those "games", didn't we?
I'd have hoped the lot of them would leave by now, why are they such a plague?
>touch screen buttons
Using a controller defeats the purpose lmao.
>$2000
That's in the same territory with gayman laptops.
they said the same thing about controllers lmao
also mobile gaming is already more popular than console and PC combined. everyone has a phone.
Oh shut up dumb nigger
>HURR DERRRRP I WANT NEW TECHNOLOGY 4 CHEAPZ!!!
Kill yourself.
Fuck off bugmen
>assfaggots
>defending corporations
good goy
EVERY new technology is expensive you underage faggot.
nope, they don't have physical buttons and are hella expensive
No chinese marketer, they're really not, because you put almost no effort into the products you make, thus when thousands or maybe even millions of them break, or are caught with chinese surveilance stuff inside (like we dont know you'll try this, you're too obvious) they'll either be banned from sale in western countries, or simply be a commercial failure.
I can guarantee these will be easily breakable no matter how well taken care of. If you make a decently made product that doesn't short out, lasts for a long time for the money we pay, and is actually more durable than glass we'll talk.
I will admit its a neat idea though at least.
Touchscreen buttons will never be anything besides casual phone shit gaming.
Just use a controller nigga
how the heck can anyone play on a touchscreen? I tried it abolute shit.
West is already making these as well.
Imagine playing FGO on this. It'd be fucking glorious.
Big enough device, small enough fingers, or use a controller.
Y-You still remember me, r-right Yea Forums?
And a control stick ISN'T as accurate as a mouse.
Accessability has nothing to do with quality
>visible fold in the screen showing unwanted reflections

>immense starting price at 2000 bucks, which would alternatively get someone a decent PC, Nintendo Switch and a proper smartphone
>enjoy not being able to call back anyone because your gaming sessions drained the batteries
>enjoy playing shovelware shit from the playstore
Sounds like shit, really.
Uhhuh? And you think the cost to production value will make them cheaper here? Even if it is, it'll still be far more expensive than the large adoption rates investors and shareholders would expect. Phone buyers are fucking morons, but they're not that stupid. Gimmicks like this never catch on, as a matter of fact this kind of things been tried before, with a bezel. With or without it though its doomed to failure.
God MOBAs are so fucking shitty

>using a large screen
enjoy your 15 mins of game time I guess
I remembered the PSPGO but not this kek although at the time it was released I was obsessed with it.
So are there any good controllers or pads you can attach to a phone? Using a proper controller seems pointless because then you need somewhere to stand the phone up. I just want my phone to be a Switch dammit!
Why, though? Isn't like the machines have to work twice as hard to make it.
Your profit for the idea comes from you making it first, inflating the price for no reason is just greed.
Ehem, I think you're forgetting something
so you've got a screen on both sides of the phone?
who thought this was a good idea? just imagine the scratches
Yes, allow me to carry around a controller in my pocket.
When the cost goes down, this will become mainstream.
Stop living in the past. The battery drain on newest devices is not bad at all.
>slide out

ffs
Dead.
People don't seem to have a problem with the Switch.
N-Gage was cooler.

You have a literal monopoly on your new product for quite some time. If you can't make profit off of that alone, your product is shit and not needed.
Stop being so fucking poor.
I make twice that much every month.
Why PSVita is bad ties and PSP is god, when PSVita literally contains a PSP os and has a superior OLED screen
Controls are absolute garbage tho, which is why I never really played a game on my phone.
Wrong. We're not in 2010 anymore.
Vita is not that bad, honestly. Game library is just kinda weak. Not to mention could be decent titles fucked with touch controls like Lumines.
It's my Muramasa/Disgaea machine, with some occasional EDF. It's alright, good screen too. And better sleep mode than 3DS.
>gameboy light
i want that one so bad
dunno about that guy but I really prefer psp buttons being more comfortable overall, and lower res screen.
I thought Vita will replace my PSP, but in the end I use PSP more often
Is the PSVita backwards compatible towards the PSP? In that case, bump it right up to the PSP.
Some games like turn-based RPGs or vertical shoot em ups work perfectly with touch controls.
only if you rebuy previous games on PSN or hack it.
In this case I propose to add
>hacked PSVita
at least into top tier.
and we hardly see any decent turn based game and good shmups are basically arcade ports
Nah, phones will always have mediocre trash of a games, with maybe one in thousand being decent but it'll probably be a port from somewhere else anyway
>Controllers
And that's still true you fucking zoomer idiot
bragging about making 48k a year.. thats a yikes
>same thing about controllers
you need to go back
I loved mine. Bought it a year after it launched. It was absolutely amazing for emulation. The touch pads work really well. My only complaint was the lack of L/R 2 buttons. I played a ton of PSX games on it.
>working 2 weeks to pay a fucking phone
lmao
>i'm totally not poor, look, i spend all my money on useless toys
imagine willingly playing the equivalent to terrible shovelware, only without a controller and with it screaming at you to constantly wait or pay real money. You'd have to be a special kind of dumbass to think this is anywhere close to actual platforms
>Costs only 6 times as much as a Switch
>No buttons7
>Literally shit games
Yeah totally the future brah
Are you still that ugly my dude as in that pic?
>thinking 2k is a lot of money
Loving every laugh
Touchscreens are absolutely miserable for anything but basic web browsing.
what this user said
they can work for like few genres, but you covering shit on screen with your fingers - fuck that
no tactile feedback either
>Makes 48k
>Still posts on Yea Forums
Lmao
48K is not alot lol.
What kind of poor niggas browse this page?
Isn't that low tier medium wage?
imagine being use food
>absolutely pointless gimmick that only makes your phone a fuckton more fragile
>controls are still fucking shit
Nah.
It isn't impressive until you can fold an 8K screen like a piece of paper.
imagine playing video games on your phone
There are plenty of good mobile games. They're just handheld consoles at this point
There's a couple of things that I really don't like about folding phones right now. My biggest complain is the fucking crease. Is that going to be fixed later or is that something you have to expect with a foldable phone. Besides that, when you have your phone folded, how can you put it on the table? I expect that this new screen isn't as scratch resistant as the older non-foldable screen. So, like there's always going to be on side that's just going to be your scratch side? Or are they actually scratch proof?
imagine playing video games
Name one.
48k is just good enough to say "i'm not in poverty" in most of the states
Imagine buying an expensive phone and not playing games on it. I sold my 3DS after I bought a new phone and haven't missed it.
>For only $2000 you can have a phone that turns into a tablet (but with the processing power of a phone)
So this... is the power... of mobile gaming...
Oddmar
>buying an expensive phone in general
Why? I just use mine for calls and even then it's almost never used.
Scratch magnet, gorilla glass can't bend so they're using plastic.
>there are THOUSANDS of good games on mobile, just search for yourself how to emulate NES/SNES/GBA/DS ;-)
>NEW TECHNOLOGY
nigger OLED's have been about for fucking ever, this has always been possible
instead you get milked for every tiny incremental display 'upgrade' until they decide we're finally ready for them
>NES/SNES/GBA/DS
If you want to emulate, at least go for something actually good like PSP or Wii.
t. zoomers
seriously, it says something when the best game on a phone is just some emulated DS RPG. Why wouldn't i just use an actual handheld with buttons?
Don't get your hopes up, books don't need to support a display layer and they start showing signs of use in a month of daily use at most.
>inb4 what are "books"
That's really just up to personal preference, silly.
I just use mine for gaming and the occasional chat because it doesn't turn heads as hard as a 3DS or Switch.
Gay and too expensive
Zoomers only play video games, they do nothing else.
Competition exists in hardware
You can see further around your character when it's folded.
>playing any console game with fucking touchscreen controls
I'm 26
because moving games to your vita is a pain in the ass
and its getting more expensive
Imagine being so fat you look at comp-phone and see food
I just want phones with L&R trigger buttons
26 is a zoomer.
40 is also a zoomer.
just get one of those bluetooth controllers bro :^)
I use a PS4 controller to play on PSP emulator.
I know some people who do it, mostly for turn based games on a job.
cause they either don't have a handhelt, or even if they had it - fiddling with phone less attention attracting than with handheld
>we're going full circle back to a square aspect ratio
Why?
Then try bending your vita or s6 my man.
Phones are a gaming platform for people who aren't really into games. You came to a gearhead forum and are surprised people don't want to talk about your prius.
Hack your vita and games will be just drag and drop.
Every single phone game I ever tried was cash shop laden paywall having chinese looking shit
and every single time someone went "Oh but try X, it's way different" it was especially shit so don't even bother
It literally takes 10 seconds to connect your PS4 controller via Bluetooth.
>wasting time on handheld games instead of maximizing your life to spend as much time as possible in front of a superior desktop with proper controls
>Be you
>Fry your balls with microwave radiation because mobile gayming is fun and trendy
Just wait till 5G standard is here, this will be truly age of Darwin awards.
You clearly weren't even interested in trying.
Oh. Enjoy your 30 mins of game time I guess
>Buying an expensive phone and not playing games on it
What fucking games?
Seriously, what could you possibly consider on mobile that's seriously worth the price?
Aside from basic bare-bones cash-grab shit, your options are just
>Indie trash
>low-quality rip-offs of whatever's popular at the time
>Ports which usually make massive sacrifices to try and use a touch screen
>Emulators
And that's your lot. You're basically just sacrificing quality because you CAN'T wait until you go home to play your emulators or whatever garbage you have, yet you also don't wanna get a 3DS or a Switch because you don't wanna look like you're playing a game as if it isn't really obvious when someone's playing a game on their phone and as if they don't have the same reaction to them as they would to someone with a Switch/3DS.
just pair your xbone or ds4 controller with it.
>HURR DURR CARRYING AROUND EXTRA SHIT
I mean if you're gonna carry around another system with your phone, you're not really saving much space, if any at all.
You really aren't up to speed with phone batteries these days? No matter how graphically intensive game I've played, my Poco F1 has only lost about 6% after 30 mins if gaming.
You boomers are so stupid.
>I don't wanna get a Switch to play portable games because people will look at me funny
>Unlike if I carried a video game controller everwhere I go and play a PS4 controller in front of my tiny phone
I just don't get it. If you don't care what other people think then why not just get a Switch? Sure, it's not an all-star line-up of games, but it's better than literally nothing but emulated games you've already played if you're over the age of 20.
There are much smaller controllers than Xbone or DS4 ones.
I got uncomfortable just watching this footage. Damn, touchscreen controls were a mistake.
There are plenty good mobile games that aren't ports, and when it comes to ports, 3DS game ports for example are so much better on phones. None of that 240p 20fps shit.
There are plenty of good games on mobile devices than aren't emulated games.
>console controllers are the only ones for phones
Absolute retard.
>dude there's plenty trust me!
>only one actually mentioned so far is some poor man's Rayman Origins with a tumblr nose dwarf
Rich people are rich because they don't waste their money on useless stuff, not because they spend a lot.
You're paying 400 for the phone and 1600 for the brand/feature, that's being retarded, not rich.
They are not
Phones are people’s selfie machine
Phones could achieve 4K graphics and 48 hour battery life not like it matters considering 2.99 on the App Store is too expensive
3DS ports are basically nothing but virtual novels like Ace Attorney and such. very important to have framerate and resolution there, yes. usually with worse srpites.
and show those GOOD mobile games then, it can't be hard to list few dozens
>Mobile gaming triggering boomers
Based.
Doesn't matter how much it evolves, it will be shit for gaming until they fucking add buttons.
SOON
>little tiny screen
keep your "future of video games" to yourself
You asked for only one. And you clearly intend to act retarded and dismiss everything so what's the point?
That's the most retarded argument, what's the point of a handheld device if you need peripherals to play and you cannot play on the go? Just buy a console it's half the money
>little tiny screen
>literally bigger than any portable console
My phone has a bigger screen than Switch does. And did you not watch the video?
Name 3 I dare you.
>increased screen size
>revolution
so I guess we had that revolution going for at least decade in smartphones then, cause they kept increasing display.
Were are good games then?
>skinnerbox chink shovelware played on a fucking phone
What kind of literal bugmen can genuinely be interested in this?
What the fuck do they add to the fog?
Doesn't seem to be a problem with the Switch.
Categorically false.
Most rich people (like Actually Rich, not instagram rich where they just have a nice car and get free hotel stays) are rich because they exploit tax loopholes, bribe policymakers, disregard labor laws, beat their employees into submission with anti-union propaganda, and a host of other shit.
Kek who is paying you to talk so much bullshit?
uhh what if you want a screen protector of some kind
WOW GUYS, REVOLUTION IN MOBILE GAMING HAPPENED IN 2012 ALREADY
I don't understand people's obsession with the cameras on these things. It adds quite a bit to the overall price, and I almost never use it. I'd be content with the camera on my old flip phone.
This shit is like close to 10 years old. No one just bothered to manufacture and sell it. You think chinks would come up with something new?
If this was on a nintendo or sony portable they would call this the biggest revolution in gaming history and tech in general but because this is a phone all these poor boomers trying to fit in dismiss this as a gimick even tho its literally the future of screens.

Show me a fucking foldable screen from 10 years ago that isn't just a projector.
48k really isnt that much money btw. not enough to stand on and look down upon other people at least
Nice arguments buddy.
there's a huge gap between the screens
imagine playing an fps and you cant see the middle of the screen
Enjoy your third rate games literally nobody will remember tomorrow, phonebaby.
Phone radiation is weak.
Yes they are though.
Android has a better library than the vita my man
>Nobody will remember
>Literally most popular games on the market
Oof.
Phone gaming is shit and will never be taken seriously as a gaming platform by anyone who has an alternative option to play on.

>makes 5 figures per year
>calls others poor
You're the kind of retard that would buy this, VR shit, and pay for easily pirateble games because "lol I'm not poor"
because it is a fucking gimmick you retard. it's literally just a tablet with yet more built-in planned obsolescence and you phoneposter cucks are lapping it up.
cope :)
If you fags haven't noticed, Jap games are now starting to come more and more on iOS and Android. Not just f2p ones but actually pricey stuff like Scarlet Grace. Future of JRPGs is on mobile.
OH NO, REVOLUTION KEEPS HAPPENING

We called the pro controller too expensive but these things are asking 20-40 more for buttons.
On your phone that will now not fit in your pocket
Not the guy who says phones have good games, but Bullet Hell Monday was p. good for a shmup.

Yes

We literally don't matter.
>Generic platformer with touchscreen swipe controls
>Even more generic JRPG
>Basic indie puzzle game with far more effort on visuals than gameplay, except it's on a phone so what's the point of emphasizing visuals
And I thought Switch owners were grasping for straws to say the Switch has a good library, this is just sad.
You're willing to settle with the absolute bear minimum for the sole reason that "it's on my phone". The Switch isn't great but at least it has ports of actual games and not the video game equivalent of a cardboard cutout.
Why
>Mobile devices are just stronger handheld consoles at this point.
Don't kid yourself. Phones can barely run ps1 games because they're throttled to death.
You're literally handicapping yourself when you do this. You see less of the battlefield as soon as you unfold the screen.
Then why did the market come here now and tries to convince us phone games are anything but hot garbage?
>Oddmar
Generic platformer ruined by the limitations of incredibly clunky haptic controls.
>Chaos Rings 3
Playstation Vita port. Why would you play this on a phone.
>Sky
Interesting looking, but still yet another "atmosphereic indie walking simulator" which are barely games in the first place. I watched a video with developer commentary and he said "you can play pretty much the whole game just by moving one finger" lmao.
I'll give you half a point for Sky because I like its art direction. The others would not count as good mobile games by any metric.
Good to you that you're anonymous amirite?
Most real gamers cant stand mobile shit. There will always be console games. I think consoles will merge with phones eventually and phones will be able to handle AAA graphics when the hardware catches up.
We will wirelessly connect it to our tv and controller and play games.
>Phones can barely run ps1 games
What? The average game on Google play looks better than anthing on PS1, and the top ones rival PS3 games in visuals. And if you're talking about emulation then my phone has no problem emulating PS1 games.
I can play both some early PS2 games and almost every gamecube game on my s9+
>I'll give you half a point for Sky because I like its art direction.
honestly Sky art direction is basically
>look, we too played Journey! Look how artsy we are.
example: switch
No, I am. The batteries are trash and haven't advanced at all, chemistry advances are slow. The resolution has also increased on phones and the graphics they're trying to run are even more demanding. The battery life has not gone up, but down. But continue to spout nonsense, kid
This
Like a IPhone 6S 128 gig is like 300$
A gayman computer med tier is like 800$
And a Switch with 3 games plus online you’re looking at 500$
You can save 400$ and have a wider arrange of devices
>every bait thread is a viral marketer
you must be new
here is a tip , those loli threads?
they aren't actually pedos
why do you think switch still exist and even popular? as well as 3DS and Vita technically were selling quite well in post smartphone age?
Because while market for such devices as handheld console shrunk - it isn't gone completely.
People still like idea of handheld DEDICATED videogame device. And it doesn't really matter that there are smartphones out there for those people.
I played Shadowgun Legends for 45 minutes and lost 15% of my battery. Maybe you just have a really poor device.
Awesome I hate it
no, it needs to be 16:9 phone unfolding into 32:9
the ultimate cinematic experience
>look, we too played Journey! Look how artsy we are.
Sure. Taking inspiration from great art direction tends to produce great art direction.
>looks better
Key words there kiddo. It's easy as shit to make something look better but to make something more complex is a different story.
Why would anyone consider touch screen good for normal games
My problem, while it looks nice I'm not gonna argue, that it looks same as other ones of this kind.
same soft colors, same designs. same everything.
stop posting this aspie shit it fucking sucks shitty balls its just concept nobody will buy this fucking useless nonsense you're so fucking goddamn fat
>Gameboy Mirco
If they ever do Gameboy Classics I want a Gameboy Mirco Classic asap
There's a significant difference between a game that takes inspiration from another game, and a game that attempts to be a spiritual successor.
then half the screen will be black bars brainlet.
>its just concept nobody will buy this fucking useless nonsense
oh, sweetie...
>vita port
chaos rings was a mobile series, made for mobile from the first entry.
you're retarded. ff dimensions too before you say that's a port of something else.
Shadowgun Legends, Asphalt 9, or hell, PUBG are complex than anything you could have had on fucking PS1. And the first 2 are graphically on PS3 levels. They run perfectly on my 300 dollar phone.
Not sure why you underestimate devices that easily surpass shit like Vita.
Not him but textures and polygon counts are two different things. They have a way lower polygon count to allow them to run well on top of having very few assets outside of the player character on screen they just make everything else up in textures to fool gullible consumers like you.
>slow and easy
>slow and easy
>slow and easy
try again
oh wait, phones can't have anything remotely fast-paced because lmao touchscreen controls
M8 the only games anyone plays is Facebook idle games or gatcha
5G is more safe than 4G, and 4G is more safe than 3G etc.
>switch being the first handheld home console combo
aykshually, sega nomad and psp go.
Oh wow, low poly sub ps1 tier trash. Totally proving your point there.
Memory cards. Fuck Vita memory cards.
Holy shit if that's the best mobile has to offer then it's fucking embarrassing.
Imagine posting this
you can emulate black bars with cardboard attachments
ez
No, they aren't. I want to game on a 27 inch monitor with 2019 graphics and KB+M, not a flash game on a 5 inch screen while smearing my sweaty fingers on my display trying to not obstruct my shitty UI.
irrelevant. the entire series was released on a superior gaming platform and the need to use a shitterphone to play it made moot.
if you want me to judge it based solely on its shitterphone iteration, I give it a 0/10 because clumsy touch screen controls are for brain dead morons.
Why do you keep shitposting? youtube.com
>analog stick emulation on a touchscreen
FUCKING KILL YOURSELF WITH THAT GAY SHIT
How shitty the mobile game market is aside, why the fuck would you ever want this
>No way to put on a phone protector unless you disallowed it to do its $2000 gimmick
>Most likely fragile as fuck because of the design, one drop from waist-height will likely cause severe damage
>It'll probably show signs of wear and tear after a few months anyways, especially given how much resistance it seems to give to opening
>The only real practical application of this is being able to have a phone and a tablet without having to carry both a phone and a tablet, except it's probably not as strong as a decent tablet
>I can't imagine how you would avoid getting some part of it scratched; if you drop it when its closed it literally can't land in a way that wouldn't cause damage to the screen
I guess there's just something to be said for an idea being so outlandish that people buy it because it's funny because that's literally the only reason I can come up with.
I don't really like to play on my phone but you're completely wrong. Most Android devices with >3000mA/h batteries have pretty good stamina, even on high end 3D games. I'd say at least 4-5 hours straight minimum, which is already more than a Switch.
>irrelevant
>ITS A VITA PORT
it's not though, retard.
check your facts before you spew your retarded inaccuracy everywhere.
I don't think you can get 5 inch screen anymore.
Hahahahaha no.
Nintendo could maybe put out a Pokédex looking phone that’s basically an IPhone 6S on one side and an HD 3DS on the other
it's fucking new tech, what did you expect?
what a gameplay
Oceanhorn 2 is probably the best mobile has to offer right now.
Seriously
Even shovelware for the 3DS had a higher production value
>buying phone for one game
The world, chico, and everything in it.
any iteration of chaos rings not on a vita is a shit game with shit controls, not to be included as an example of a "good mobile game". deal with it nerd.
even the vita version is a generic ass jrpg that nobody knows or cares about.
I don't think it's the future, I think it's a novelty. Most people don't have a use for multiple screens.
Not at all.
Nigga Yea Forums has an ungodly amount of power
Remember Millions of people visit this site
>not realizing gaming is a bonus and nobody buys a phone for just games

yeah you can keep the future
Nobody will try to market to a userbase that cant even afford a 300 dollar console and spends an eternity shitposting about it.
That changed absolutely nothing.
Can't wait to pay 2000€ to play diablo immortal as the devs intended!
>Millions
Chink bots and chills don't really count you know.
why would anyone play a game on mobile that has a superior version on PC or consoles?
Yea Forums is simply allowed to operate for purposes diametrically opposed to what you assume. It has no power in and of itself.
I dont see the problem bro, you only need to pay 500$ for a official repair.
You’d be surprised
so for what? To call, watch occasional video and browse web? any phone can do that, including around 100$ range. Aka what majority own, aside of retards with iPhones.
And that what for majority of games will be made, people who never pay for shit unless they really become addicted whales.
And that's why games will forever be shit on mobile.
>significantly lower product quality than other platforms, including other handhelds
Uum... youtube.com

Yep, chinks will eat it up.
i fucking hate phones
my decade old phone finally kicked the bucket and finding a replacement is a massive ball ache
trying to look up the best budget phone and its lists full of 400 buck phones
If Yea Forums had any influence to improve anything, we wouldn't be so fucking angry about issues of meaning and worth because someone would've fixed those problems. We'd be bitching about the pettiest console shit like "Mario is better than Sonic" instead of actually having serious issues about the state of the industry
So if anybody has any fucking eyes on this place they're obviously not learning anything. Because gaming has on average regressed to a worse state every fucking year that passes here.
I haven't seen a single fucking legitimate mainstream complaint here acted upon ever. Blizzard or Bioware wouldn't be a smoldering pile of failure if anybody from any of those companies spent ten minutes reading a single thread here.
thread is basically about insecure faggots with phones who try to justify their shit taste and fear of having a handheld in public place
poor faggots
I have literally never played a good mobile game that wasn't just a port of a real game or flash-tier shit that was ripped straight off of armorgames.
Majority in shit 3rd world countries maybe.
AKA people who dont matter.
I cant remember the last time I saw a sub 500 dollar phone.
your example of a good phone game is some stiff looking trash thats obviously trying to ape botw so people download it?
sums up mobile gaming pretty well
too bad gameplay looks like shitty zelda bootleg
Well you should probably attempt searching
more like 999%
and then ask them how many games they bought.
Oh wait
they didn't.
No one did.
They'll look at you as a retard for talking about "buying" games period. They are all "free" after all.
And that's why mobile gaming will be shit. Always.
All the JRPGs seem to be also coming to phones these days so I play my JRPGs on my phone.
you can get a sim unlocked Huawei P Smart for like 200 euros in EU. where are you looking?
Goalpost but whatever I will respond.
Free games make more money than AAA 60 dollar games you out of touch boomer.
Look into chinkphones. You can get a phone thats good enough for everything for like $150.
mobile gaming can be the future when companies start porting more of their games to phones, its cool to see a bunch of jprg and wrpg on the store, but its not alot
and DQ8 for mobile is butchered, the KOTOR is ok and i know nothing about baldur's gate and the older ports. The problem is that most phones don't have a 1080 on them to run most games so companies would either have to start making decent games for phones in the hope that people will buy it, or keep spamming shitty games with currency that people will waste on
Every suggestion in this thread has sucked and everything you think is good also sucks. There is no reason to game on a phone when you can spend that time shitposting on Yea Forums on the go anyway
>why no one would think about poor mobile games developers milking whales
and how their money making business is related to game quality?
Such monetization murders literally every attemtp on making a decent game.
Shitty SNES ports with terrible HD sprites, fuck yeah!
Doesn't really help when the UI covers the screen. Unless you make a game that uses only half of the screen
>screen cracks
what
I've never had a screen crack from anything but a drop when I was retarded and didn't use cases.
The throttling and shit batteries and burned out hardware is true though. I'm on my 6th year of a galaxy s4, the GPU is burned out entirely and doesn't even boot most games, the CPU overheats from just getting a call, and the battery dies at 73%.
My phone plays gamecube games, how poor are you?
they could make it adaptable to most gamepads for phones, if you own one the UI will just go away
>Shitty SNES ports with terrible HD sprites, fuck yeah!
Games like this youtube.com
I don't think I would play that on PC or on home console, but on a phone? Fuck yeah.
>playing gamecube games on a phone
>not being able to play gamecube games on the go
not him but it's pretty nice not having to carry around an entire fucking laptop just to play some thousand year door or baten kaitos on the road.
oh, that looks actually decent.
I thought they still do nothing but badly port older games, like Shiren the Vandered recently got announced as phone port.
Took them awhile honestly, nothing wrong with turn based stuff on phones, shit starts when they fuck up literally everything related to game.
That's fucking dumb.
See, with a normal phone you can curl your index fingers to touch the corners or top of the screen like triggers. You can also by accessory triggers that clip onto the screen for the same purpose. You can't do that shit on a tablet, tablets are actually worse for mobile gaming.
>Vandered

I see people focusing on fucking touch controls in this thread more.
On the other hand - if you have to carry separate controller with you - why not just take a handheld - I have no clue.
Why the fuck you play Scarlet Grace in inferior platform????
It's pretty common these days to see titles like this. Japs are bringing non-gacha JRPGs to mobile that aren't just ports.
>gaming has on average regressed to a worse state every fucking year that passes here.
that's simply not true at all. Yea Forums cherry picks the worst examples of the state of the gaming industry and related social spheres to fuel the particular confirmation biases of its board culture
Because it runs and looks just as good on my phone than on my PC. And I don't want to sit in front of my PC playing a game like that.
Are all of those smartphone advancements coming from Asia now? What the fuck white people, I thought you invented everything.
>The world is running out of resources, what do we do?

WHAT ARE SCREEN PROTECTORS?
>The world is running out of resources
No?
>play game for 30 minutes
>drain 80% battery from a device that also needs to do other thinks for the rest of the day
mobile gaming will always be a meme unless they sort the battery problem out, which they never will because normalfags are content getting cucked with 5 minute battery lifes
You'de rathern be hunched over a little screen in your hand than play on PC? Never understood this.
>Battery meme
When the fuck will you cunts understand that batteries don't die fast anymore unless you have some cheap shit phone?
Considering mentality of average phone user I doubt they'll sell much, I wonder if it pays for itself at least, that would be actually good news.
Or they are still throwing ports and hope huge audience will take a notice.
Yeah just like tablet computers.
>he doesnt have a ps4 controller synced to his phone

Yes

Which one? The DS remake, or something that hasn't been released in the West yet? I recently platinumed Tower of Fate and need more Shiren fix.

Why waste your time on a phone when it will always vastly inferior to a desktop or even a laptop used with a regular mouse.
>if you have to carry separate controller with you, why not take a handheld
because a handheld can't do everything I may want to do. they sure as fuck can't play gamecube, ps2, or psp games unless i'm taking my vita or psp, and if i'm taking those, I have to deal with the garbage nearly dead screens.
phone is just better.
And yeah touch controls are bad if you're trying to play action-y games but if you're trying to play anything besides JRPGs or stuff that can be paused easily on the go anyway you're just a fucking idiot.
28 year old guy here I grew up on video games long before mobile phone gaming took over and I just can't seem myself taking phone game seriously. They are just so trash or at best mediocre and why would I put up with mediocre ganes when I can play great games on PC or gaming handheld or consoles
The sooner we run out of resources, the sooner the human population crashes to sustainable levels.
Because if I have a phone that has enough power, why would I not play on it considering that there are tons of games for it? I don't always feel like sitting in front of my PC.
>games people only play because they're taking a shit or waiting on a bus

What great games are on handheld consoles?
>I don't understand economies of scale or hardware revisions.
Also, if you can get idiots to drop huge amounts on your product why wouldn't you? You only drop the price once competition exists you dumb zoomer.
I spent 2 hours last night grinding in Shadowgun Legends, maybe not all of us play Angry Birds?
>I have to deal with the garbage nearly dead screens.
what the fuck did you do to them?
I consider myself pretty abusive when it comes to hy handhelds, they still function fine especially screens.
only DS has like one dead pixel
Um everything from the original gameboy to 3ds?
Because the market for mobile gaming has decided that it would rather play cheaply made, free to play, microtransaction riddled experiences rather than actual games.
wow
what an achievement
I bet angry birds actually better gameplay wise than that shitty fps
Why would you play a game in hurried and distracted 15-30 minute spurts on something with a 3 inch screen and hugely inferior controls that inherently obstruct your vision all while sitting on a smelly subway or bus or some shit, when you could play it from a comfy chair on a large screen with crisp, high definition graphics and an infinitely superior game pad or kb+m setup from home.
>grinding
really, that's your defense?
you just described nintendo consoles
people love gimmicks
the folding would fuck up any screen protector over time and you could not use the nicer rigid ones at all
>gameboy
>3ds
Trash.
Soon, phones will have as big a screen as my monitpr, as well as keyboard and mouse peripherals for proper controls.
Wait a sec...
Sucking dicks for money is not a real job, though.
>Why would you play a game in hurried and distracted 15-30 minute spurts
I don't.
>3 inch screen
My phone has a bigger screen than the Switch does.
>while sitting on a smelly subway or bus
I like to lay on my bed when playing on my phone.
where are the buttons though
It's far and away the best Shiren game I've ever played, though my frame of reference is only those released in English. I sunk over 250 hours into it.
Incredible how much mobile gaming triggers Yea Forumstards.
It's also incredible how little people here seem to know what's actually available on mobile.
Explain.
If mobile phone gimmicks were in the form of new and fun gameplay mechanics rather than the same old exploitative skinnerbox ecchibait gacha trash, I'd love mobile games.
Gotta get it while physical copies still being sold then.
thanks, user.
Literally why the fuck would i ever use my phone when i could play anything else? To me, it's a tool for communication, and was better off back before the iphone was made.
>It's also incredible how little people here seem to know what's actually available on mobile.
iphone app store is complete trash, and trying to find "good mobile games" on google just brings up millions of indian adsense sites
Because its a shit platform for video games
>board dedicated to video games gets angry when you point to a steaming pile of shit and call it a video game

>the future of gaming

I bought an expensive phone, it has power, it has games, and I can easily play on it while feeling comfy in my bed. Few reasons there.
>I bought an expensive phone
Why?
>My phone has a bigger screen than the Switch does.
Nobody actually uses the Switch as a mobile device outside maybe taking it with them to the shitter once in awhile. Your phone doesn't have a bigger screen than a large LED television.
>I like to lay on my bed when playing on my phone.
nigga what the fuck are you doing. are you some poorfag living in a shack and don't have an actual gaming setup?
I wanted it.
oh shit, you are right
that fucking shipment price though, I usually import games in bulk to get it cheaper overall, amazon ships always a single game, which sucks
they need to HLJ that shit via virtual warehouse
A fool and his money are soon parted. Hell, the same can be said for all phone games.
How do these kind of people even dress themselves in the morning? Fucking brainlet, you can fold them both ways to close the phone before you put it down..
I don't always feel like sitting in front of my gaming setup. You act as if my phone was my primary gaming device. Believe or not, there are different devices for different situations.
no they're not. nothing phone related is "the future" of video gaming, get a grip, you people never learn.
what about windows tablet? It's strong enough to do actual work and play video gaymes. I personally play M&B warband on it.
>hurr laptop
Bloat
>the same can be said for all phone games
No. I've had plenty of fun.
Because he is addicted to time gated mobile gacha games that's why. And shit controls are anyway solved by autoplay.
finally I can play ipad games on my iphone. what I've always been waiting for
I don't play many gacha games. My paid games folder is bigger.
Turn-based games are best played on mobile and you can't refute this.
Appstores are just the modern iteration of shit like miniclip or armorgames. Easily digestible time filler for children.
>Believe or not, there are different devices for different situations.
yea, gaming setups for gaming and a phone for communicating with other people.
playing "games" on a phone is fucking brainlet tier.
Gaming setup while I feel like sitting in front of it and phone when I feel like playing but not sitting in front of my PC.
Playing games on a phone was brainlet tier 10 years ago, but not anymore.
This.
Literally the only decent phone games I've played are ports of actual games and Honkai Impact.
Everything else is trash.
Learn to find the good games. Only a subhuman monkey calls everything "trash" because they don't know what's out there.
Gorilla glass is basically plastic ive snapped a s8 in half in my hands
If there were any actually AA/AAA level phone games I would be okay with this. But even the best mobile games are mediocre at best.
The games are fundamentally developed with a touchscreen in mind and therefore dumbed down significantly in their complexity.
Every time one of you fruitcakes tries to list "the best of the best" from android, all you show is poor man's versions of games everyone else had 5 or 10 years ago.
At worst, it will be comfertable to play RTS on the big screen:
youtube.com
enjoy your 10 frame button press/touch lag
If theres any tech that can revolutionize mobile games, its tactile touch screens.
Too bad there hasn’t been much headway in that front.
No.
Reminder dice came here to ask what we wanted to see in bf3. Everyone spammed 'dinosaurs'. So the first scene in the intro is a shot of a toy dinosaur.
>Playing games on a phone was brainlet tier 10 years ago, but not anymore.
mobile "games" are exponentially worse today than 10 years ago.
A decade ago they were gems wrapped in newspaper. Now they're turds wrapped in rhinestone-plated designer paper.

Instead of having flat 2D virtual buttons, the screen “pops up” allowing users to actually feel and touch UI elements like they were real buttons.
10 years ago phones couldn't really run anything.
I really wish I've seen that board meeting
>Sir, there seems to be an overwhelming demand for dinosaurs
I will never understand how anyone can tap a hard, tiny glass screen with shitty audio for hours and enjoy it. Im more interested in the new fold phones in terms of watching media and browsing.
I'll take the 2000$ pc over a 2000$ phone all thay are is a headache I love. How I pay for some thing and all a get out of to is 2000 skamer calls a day
>tiny screen
Boomer, for fuck's sake, phones have bigger screens than a Switch has.
>shitty audio
??????
I own a Switch and I dont play it handheld because the screen is tiny. My phones 6 inch screen is tiny too.
Bigger screen
Bigger anime titties when I'm fappin on the toilet at work
Too bad the cost so fucking high nobody will buy it
>all phoneshitters can say is "b-boomer!"
This is yourt brain on third rate games played on an $2000 device.
>tfw just bought Chaos Rings 3 for 20 bucks for my phone
I hope it was worth it.
I doubt they'll feel better than microwave buttons
The difference being that the switch has actual games and is predominantly played on a television with portability as a bonus. It's not a favorable comparison for you.
I have more actual games on my phone than on my Octopath device desu.
Mobile literally has zero exclusives since you can emulate android on a computer and play it on a real screen with real controls without spending $2000 on a gimmicky touch screen tablet designed to break.
Ok, well i'm a fag noob that doesn't game much these days and never played games on a phone. What's your fucking point you assclown...get to it. Mature people know how to be direct with their criticisms/opinions. Stop hiding in sarcasm to seem intelligent and cool, you edgy fucking teen.
The flexible screen tech is neat and there could be some clever uses for it in a few years. But I just don’t see how these “folders” offer anything revolutionary as far as mobile games are concerned. The user experience is no different from tablets we’ve had for years now.
No you can't. Huawei and Oppo fold out, Samsung folds in (like a book). You can't fold them the other way than designed.
>repeated claims of "actual" mobile games
>refuses to name any of them
this person gets it these companies have been doing this since the release of the first mobile phones
whoever designed the inside-out phones is probably going to end up executed and tossed in a Chinese ditch somewhere.
You're retarded. The panels themselves have been bendable for a decade, true, but they had to develop a non-glass top layer that is flexible enough to fold and strong enough to protect the screen. That shit is like 7 layers of different materials on top of the actual screen.
>Thread stayed alive with the sheer power of Yea Forums boomer butthurt
Amazing.
Why give any money to bug men phone developers when people need to continue pushing vr. Sure it's still shit now but that's the only true advancement left not just repacked Gameboys in the form of a phone for 2k

We're at the "repacked PS3s in the form of a phone" at this point.

There are those if you want, but not too many.
Weak bait.
It's a really cool product and a modern one would be amazing, especially if you bundled into a package that ties into a next-gen handheld or something. Like you could buy a straight PSSP or whatever, or the PSSP-phone that also functions as an Android handset.
?
Every single game supports it because you can just set up an app that acts like you pressed that part of the screen when you pressed that button.
Why do tech illiterates post in Yea Forums?

I think it actually kinda is. I've been designing games for like 20 years but every time I think about trying a mobile project (and hopefully bringing something new to the platform) I give up.
Touch screens are just way the fuck more limiting than they seem like they should be.
I think that's why mobile studios mine the fuck out of every vein until everything sucks and we hate them whenever they find one. Increasingly garbage microtransactions are just the result of a cycle of trying to milk every last drop out of whatever works.
There are other reasons that developing for mobile is a miserable ass-sucking experience, but I suspect it's the root of a lot of the problems design-wise. It's like making games for cripples.
You just can't be serious about these games being good let alone playing those games on the fucking phone.
You could have presented an Ace Attorney game, for example: those are quite good and ported pretty fine. Yes, those do count but it took them years to get ported and there is no info on anyone actively developing something similar for phones (exclusively or multiplat).
God I wish
Both wrong

Why does everyone say this like America doesn't do the same? Guess what fuckeroonies, all your shit has an international alphabet agency's spyware in it. Chinese, Russian, US, even the Swedes probably want to check your histories for the unsurprising amount of homoerotic porn.
You sound like a poor third worlder who just got the internet and thinks using the google play store and a bluetooth controller is hard
In all fairness you can get a phone clip for an existing controller like a dualshock 4, or something like an 8bitdo N30 or SN30 with one for less than any official controller that'll also work with your PC and Switch. Really good for emulators on the go, which is what I use mine for. Feels weird playing a GBA game at a desk.
$2000 to play on a shitty phone when you can get a perfect gaming PC with that.
Nothing depicted here means anything for games. Touch screen controllers are still dogshit.

?
and you will scratch it because the screen is made of soft plastic as it needs to be able to bend without permanent damage
samsung's design where it folds out like a book so that the big display is hinned is better
use 2 of the hard plastic ones with a gap for the bend idk cunt get creative
This is the setup I'm using, photo straight from the Amazon listing.
Basically, a device to hold your phone onto the controller. This one's spring-loaded so it just clamps down but if you've got a particularly popular phone like a current iPhone or something you can often get purpose-designed controllers for them too.
zooms will settle for nobuttons and smeared screens
probably some games will add gestures so you're waving your fingers all over the place like an idiot and this will become the norm
Nice revisionism. It was activation asking why sales were poor and one of the first posts was 'the lack of dinosaurs' and everyone followed him like sheep. Dice sent up activation with that trailer.
