Answer 1

I was kind of disappointed by the lack of 5G specific games. There seems to be a lot of games for the Ipod Touch and the Iphone but they seem to forget about the 5G.
Am I missing something? Itunes seem to be getting away from the Ipod and supporting more of the higher end devices.
it's not itunes' or apple's choice of what platform to make the games for. they come from individual developers, and since the market is there for the higher end products in greater numbers (as a gaming platform), then it's gonna naturally go that way. on my 5g nano, I'm looking for something to kill time hear and there. but folks with iphones and ipod touches are using it as a small form-factor gaming platform like the ds or psp in many circumstances.
the interface for making games that are able to hold attn for longer periods of time are naturally the ones that have the touchscreen—such as the touch or iphone. and theoretically, I'd argue that both still qualify as ipods (just with more features). from what I could tell, the nano games worked for most of the 3-5g versions, except those that required the accelerometer. there are plenty of games, just not so many that have great interactive interfaces. that's just the nature of the interface itself though. give the next gen nano a touchscreen and it'll grow its gameplay market exponentially. at that point though, I think you lose the appeal of the "little worry about the screen or body" and portability of the nano.
he main point I'll make though is that it's not a decision by apple. they don't make the games themselves. they make the platform and the OS, the developers make the games (and other apps in the case of the touchscreens)
