Hmmm where to start.

#1 MONTHLY FEE most games MUST be payed for monthly – Sorry I do not do “renting” especially at those prices

#2 Can not move it from phone to phone. Most people will not see this as a PROBLEM “until” they changer phones at which point I think that will be the last time they ever “buy” a game for a cell phone again.

Need I say more? those are pretty damning reasons as they stand :-)

echo echo – control/price. I wont pay for a game im just gonna sit there and dick around with for a few minutes. also, ever try playing a Contra emulator on a nokia 6682? It took me forever just to enter the keystrokes for the 40 lives correctly, and those lives only lasted me til level 4. Cell phone gaming is hard. I can’t even get past magnet man in megaman3 and i used to be able to beat that game with my eyes closed.

Pricing is the killer. Maybe Bell Mobility isn’t the best example but they want to charge $7 for games. $7!!! I’m not going to pay $7 for an impulse purchase. $2 maybe.

For me, I would say there is 2 problems with Cell phone gaming, Screen size and control.

Screen size is something that is getting better, phones are starting to have bigger screens, but control is one thing that varies wildly from phone to phone.

Some phones have little buttons, some have flat buttons (Razr). little carpel tunnel machines for a lot of people (sortof like the PSP)

The killer app for a cell phone would probably be a game that people can connect to….hey it is a cell phone, why not make a very casual MMO game.
