Not only that. Imagine Super Mario with just touchscreen controls. It would be a disaster. That would hurt them too!

Nintendo makes gaming hardware and software. Apple makes multipurpose hardware and software. These two worlds are meeting right now with some intersections that are great i.e. Cut the Rope, Tiny Wings, Ridiculous Fishing, etc. - but the really great titles have all been very 'casual'. Eventually these worlds will probably collide but Nintendo's firmly decided that now's not the time for that, for them.

I don't have any trouble with that as long as they keep producing great hardware. And has anyone seen the handheld console business lately ? They are ruling those numbers these days, so why the criticism ?
