Yes, I think more people want to make games for mobiles if it has real controls instead of touchscreens since one of the main problems with gaming on Smartphones and tablets are a lack of a joystick, and buttons for fast paced gaming for playing FPS shooters, action, and racing games which usually play better when you have real controls like a joystick, mouse, buttons, and Directional arrow key Pads.

Plus, there would probably be more players of Fast paced games on Tablets and SmartPhones when there are real controls for most Tablets and Smartphones which are fairly priced.

Sure like the upcoming Razer Project Fiona

It is sad that the Nokia N-gage never became popular, and were now mobile gaming is mostly touch screen based on Tablets and SmartPhones because Nokia priced it so high that it never got hugely popular. It was the first smartphone which also had a direction arrow pad , and physical buttons for gaming.

That's really cool I've never actually heard about that. When was it released?

 

[froggyboy604]

October 7, 2003 according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-Gage . I think the Nokia N gage was probably the only high-end phone which can play console-like (PSX, N64) quality game on the go in the early 2000s.

Sure maybe game makers would, but I don't think there would be much of a market for those phones. At least if the joysticks and all that shnazz were built in. Maybe if the phone had the ability for a joystick and/or controller to be plugged in it could become popular. However, for the most part I think this whole tablet, touch screen phone market is going to rocket up even more.

I see mostly teens wanting to buy phones with joysticks and buttons, and it could make using the phone easier if you are wearing gloves since the joystick and buttons can also be used as a mouse, and left right click for clicking icons on a phone.

I agree this new age of Tablet and SmartPhone gaming will rocket up even more since most games are under 5 dollars, and 10 dollars for full games which are great for people who want to play games, but don't have as much money to spend on physical games.
