They are phones that's why. Games drain the fuck out of the batteries, more so than handhelds since they aren't made specifically for games.

Don't worry anon, just hang in there for another 10-20 years and real 2d waifus will be a thing. Just support any vr porn device, and let them know where the money is and what the people want.

Because games on smart phones are dumbed down mechanically and the controls are 100% pure shit.
>>
>>344611394
Because smart phones are terrible gaming devices.
Touch screens are terrible for precise inputs.
Batteries only last a few hours, even with the screen locked the whole time.
They get super hot from moderate use.
They typically have little storage.

Mobile games are trash for a reason.
>>
>>344612902
>None of those are true though

The physical argument is. I can buy a Wii U game not that I would since we have Loadiine and the disc has the whole game on it, unless it's Splatoon but that's an outlier. Meanwhile there are a lot of PC games where the "physical" version is just a Steam code now.

>>344612443

I usually hear things like, "game.exe has stopped working" and people looking for fixes to the games problems all the time. Then you have poorly optimized ports, too. It's off-putting.

>Why do we need handheld consoles when we have smart phones?

Because 99% of all smart phone games are shovelware crap that only casuals and girls would play.

Real gamers want actual quality games like we see on the 3ds and vita.
>>
>>344611394
Because playing anything that requires more complex controls than flicking your finger is fucking ass on a smartphone.
>>
If you make a really good game, people will buy it.

If your really good game is exclusive to a handheld, people will buy that handheld to play it.
>>
>>344611861
Is this going to be the same thing as "Name one good thing" *things named* "they're all shit" like everybody that asks for reccomendations?
>>
>>344612754
In all seriousness... If everyone used PCs most games would be pirated and no boom in games or the "culture" would of happened. Sadly PCucks need Consolefags like life needs water.

Yeah, we thank you consolefags for supporting bullshit gaming industry practises like Pre-order bonuses, DLCs, games with larger marketing budgets than development budgets, and HD re-releases instead of actual Good Games, which all happen to be exclusively on PC.
