Angry, I was.

And that's the problem with a lot of people who purely make games for android/iPhone. They think the games on a portable consoles hold the same quality as those for phones. Then when they say that 3DS isn't as popular as iPhone games they judge it just by salesnumbers, without giving it any thought to how many people that buy 3DS and those that buy iPhone. Then you also have to think about why people buy 3DS and iPhone and so on. There's SO MUCH they ignore that it blows my mind.

It's also good to take a notice of what happeneds when you create actual games for Android. Square-enix ported Final Fantasy 3 for Android not long ago and it costs three times as much as other games due to quality, and it's a best-seller right now.
