Predecessor started this interesting debate about whether the Apple iPhone will kick-off of Nintendo DS outside the market before its time. The official website notes that with the impending App Store and the new software for downloading in touch of a button, Nintendo of mobile phone does not have much of chance to improve their winning streak.

Not that Nintendo is not the time to arrive at destinations self imposed by DS, as far as sales go, but it certainly would not like to see it all disappear immediately in the hearts of fans of portable, simply because Steve Jobs had vision.

The Forbes piece of Apple AppStore known as one of the main threats to the Nintendo DS. Apple upcoming service, if not read the news in recent months, says, to allow developers to throw in the free games (yeah, free) that the iPhone / iPod touch user will be able to download and wirelessly enjoy playing instantly. Currently, there nothing that can beat. Not a Sony PSP, Nintendo and certainly not at lower specced dual screen portable.

Then, there are two iPhone skillfully combined touchscreen and MOTION control functions. These only add to the list of advantages of iPhone is over Nintendo DS: "The iPhone and iPod Touch combine touch screen, sensitive to the Nintendo DS with the proposal sensitivity of the Nintendo Wii. Now add the ability to pour fresh games in a touch of a button. Will this creates a problem for Nintendo in the handheld gaming? "publication asks.

Speaking against Apple, Forbes also notes that the company has struggled to master of the game for Mac, with a much wider range of titles available for machines running Microsoft Windows. " However, Apple also not fought for the master of the game of the iPhone. The company simply threw it on the market portable as it would have disposed sochen a piece of steak in box full of Lions (or leopards). Developers immediately saw an opportunity to use their wits and developed dozens of interesting applications that could use the accelerometer and touchscreen functions. And that was it.

So, the basic idea (just make sure you have not missed the point of this debate) is that Apple has managed to cram some technical winning inside information about a portable device while it Nintendo is the scope of its "over two devices, one of which needs of one television and a power outlet for some work. With the new 3G model soon, I would say we have enough evidence here to declare a winner iPhone, what do you think?
