I would say "don't bother" personally. Touch screen only makes for casual games, and phones have that covered. Plus, consoles/PCs have the hardcore covered.
Just - no.

I had a quick read on a news site last night, good in principal, but Infinite's argument has it covered.

It's got a release date of June with Amazon, gamestop, and best buy stocking the item.
$99 for the console 1 controller included (I think) and $49 per controller.

Also on problem with Android, and IOS too for a matter of fact.
Hardware is being upgraded so quickly, leaving alot of devices not being able to play alot of stuff.
I know its the same with Any Device, PS3, Xbox, Wii Etc
But i would say the Life span of a mobile is alot less than a console in regards to gaming.
buying a dedicated machine to play mobile games will only leave it trailing behind in a year or less even.
Buy yourself a top of the range phone, and a month or two later there is a better one, While gaming continues to develop, people will work for the higher end devices
And also States makes a fair point.

@Dave, there will be an annual update for the hardware. At $99 it's not going to break the bank, with backwards compatibility being promised.
At least the submission process is easier than Apple's:
"Games will be checked for intellectual property infringement, and malware, and excessive pornography," said Uhrman. "Ultimately it's a quick review and you're in the storefront in one capacity or another."

"Excessive"...?
I like their style
Excessive is not none.

As long as the porn isn't stolen from Playboy, it should pass. Just make sure it's your own porn

I've discussed this with my (photographer) brother - nude models are not that expensive, maybe £100 for a full nude photo session. It's completely do-able.
