Let's just check back in 4 years from now. The iPhone will evolve by then and we don't even know about apples future with the loss of jobs.
The handheld talk reminds me of Tebow! Guess what nobody has any clue what's going to happen 5 years from now. What we do know the 3DS is bankable, and the vita is better off than the PS3 was to start.

I don't hate smartphones or tablets, and if I had one, I'd probably play the shit out of Flight Control, but as a fan of portable gaming, iOS/Android gaming just isn't enough for me, I don't want it to be the only option.
