However, experts predict the square deer Nintendo and Sony hard times. Because: "Apple has the iPhone done everything right," says Michael Schade, co-founder and CEO of Fishlabs, a German mobile games forging that deal with high-quality 3-D titles, a name in the industry has made. "You take the device into the hand, which looks good and feels great, then you make the App Store, which works immediately, things can quickly durchbrowsen see screenshots, will find a detailed description - the shopping is fun.
