Mobile gaming devices are increasingly taking on each others functionalities, leading to a blurring of what is a mobile gaming device and what is a communications device…
I liked this little tidbit: “A growing trend in Korean mini-games, NOM2 uses one button to help a single running avatar through a series of sidescrolling Wario-Ware-esque obstacles. Topping off the simplicity with absurdity, NOM2 adds the chance to send an SMS message into space after finishing the game, through the Ukrainian national space program transmitters.”
Of course, the best hardware is useless without good software.
