Phones are the primary gaming system for many people.

You pretty much need a phone nowadays. So for people who can't afford to drop money on a console it makes total sense.

Chances are you are also older and not the primary audience anymore.

Nerds should speak for themselves. 150B last year.

Plenty of people bust out mobile games at least daily.

Mobile games are so bad. Whenever i can i just use steam link to play something from my PC on my phone. The handful of good mobile games are all ports. If this means more good games on android, I'm all for it.
