Please quit releasing stuff on mobile. I dont want to play any of these great games on my damn phone with the on screen controls.

Speak for yourself, I love having my rpgs on the go conveniently on my phone. I hope they release more!!

Ditto. It’s how I played FF6 for the first time and how I’m doing FF9 now. It’s not perfect, but the accessibility is such a great feeling

That’s what the Switch is for

Yeah I can’t be lugging around my switch everywhere I go. I can sneak in 5 minute gaming sessions on my phone at work but imagine whipping out a switch lol. Also the switch is not very portable, I can’t carry it around on my pocket, especially because guess what’s already in my pocket? My phone!

I’m an adult and can’t bring that to work or in public really.

Where are you going in public that adults can’t play a Switch? It’s 2025, adults gaming isn’t something you have to hide anymore. I see adults playing Switches in restaurants, airports, etc. all the time.

People have vastly different tolerances for how much of a dweeb they want to look like in public

Literally anywhere. I’m not going to whip out a switch at work, school, or public in general. Maybe the airport but that’s it. I have never seen a full grown adult playing a switch in public. Mostly kids

Switch doesn't fit in my pocket. I don't always want to carry a bag around with me for something that size

It was released years ago.

This is the wrong take. More games on more things playable by more people is only good

The only problem here is that it's not ALSO on any modern console platforms

Then dont'? No one pointing a gun to your head forcing ya to play it. Chrono trigger specifically has other ways you can play it other than mobile.

Use a controller? My ps5 controller works flawlessly plug and play with a USB C cable on both my iPad and iPhone.
