It's apparently not even a collection. They're releasing them separately.

Okay. Fair enough. My bad.

Simple answer is they don't think people will play these games on consoles

Not caring to play games on mobile is a pretty valid reason not to. No matter how successful it is the experience is always going to be inferior to playing on a dedicated system.

You are simply incorrect in the year 2021. Phones and tablets have progressed to surpass consoles. What you're saying would have been true at one point but it is not the case any longer.

Nah, touch screen controls are garbage. I've tried a few times to get into some mobile port or another and they're all fucking unplayable shit. Controller, kb/mouse, or gtfo.

There's plenty of games that you can play with controllers & kb/m on mobile.

Yeah, that kind of defeats the whole point of "mobile" gaming if I have to carry that shit around and set up a kbm somewhere to play. Might as well just carry my Switch around instead, and at home I have dedicated systems with games I actually want to play.

How strong of a system do you really need to play remasters of 20 year old games? I'm kind of excited for the FFVI remaster. I've wanted one that would do the original justice for a long time. That means no compressed audio, no slowdown, better screen resolution, no bugs, etc.

Looks like I'll be buying FFIV _again_. >_>

You don't have to carry it around. You can just hook it up to the kb&m that already exists at the destination you're going to.

Because there are spare keyboards and mice in waiting rooms, other peoples' homes, hotels, the DMV, and literally anywhere else that a mobile game is a useful distraction or time killer.

"Distraction" style games like candy crush don't need a controller though.

But yes there's absolutely going to be kb&m at other people's houses, some jobs, and if you're staying at a hotel you might as well pack a kb&m if you want it.

Do mobile games still require a signal to do a DRM check before theyll run single player games?

That said, the Android side of the mobile market is a pathway to abilities that many would call...unnatural

Should probably be working at work.

And we're back to lugging it around, when the Switch takes up less space and has better games anyway.

Easier to lug around a keyboard & mouse than a switch, two joycons, & charger. The kb&m can also be used for a laptop.

Depends on the developer obviously. Kemco still has a drm check in all their games

Really hoping these come to console down the road (Switch esp). If they don't, I guess they just don't like making money.

Bringing my own devices is fine. Asking to take the kb/m from someone's desktop PC is kinda weird. And not everyone even has these things. I know quite a few people who don't have a PC at all.

What is the break room? What is going to get lunch?

Lol no, not even close. A regular kb is nearly twice the size of a Switch with attached joycons in a carrying case. It can charge on the same USBC cord as 90% of other devices. I don't remember the last time I took my Switch's charger on a trip. And again, better games.

Really not thrilled about the class system, crafting, and weapon balance from the PSP version.
