iPhone 3G and Gaming

General opinion certainly seems to be swaying in the direction that the new iPhone will do for portable gaming what the iPod did for portable music.

All in one mp3, video, phone and likely games  console the iPhone 3G has long since been touted as a possible catalyst for the portable gaming industry, with at least one recent article pointing out that:

Thing is, the iPhone can conceivably do anything the DS can, bar of course the dual-screen display. The iPhone offers full touch- screen operability, network connectivity, the ability to send and receive voice and video, plus it has the Wii-like trick of tracking the tilt and pitch of the device in your hands. Most of the games being developed for the iPhone now are based on this simple functionality, substituting a joystick for balance sensors.

Happy days!  It doesn’t matter how big or small the device is, or whether it has 3G - if I can play games on the new iPhone, Apple have got my dollar.
