Cell gaming moves up a notch

Wired News has posted an article on the future of mobile gaming. It used to just be Snake (followed shortly after by a little improved "Snake II"), but it has gotten a lot better--look for full-color, three-dimensional, multiplayer games in the near future. Currently there are a few devices aimed at solving the big problem in mobile gaming, the lack of a suitable game pad. The most well known example is the N-Gage. It takes things a little far by makings itself more of a Gameboy with a phone, than a phone with a Gameboy. There's another gadget that aims to strike a balance between the two, the Sprint Game Pad controller for the A600. We first mentioned the dock-like device back in August.
