cracked and illegal software is slowing down windows mobile development
I think this discussion is very important as i see warez websites becoming more popular. I see now independent developers are slowly losing focus on making pocket pc games and applications.The more money developers lose, the less likely they will focus on pocket pc development.Lets just take games for instance , honestly developers can make games like mario,mega man, and casltevania for pocket pc.i know they can be done because i done some myself. do you notice that WVGA has little real good choices yet WVGA pocket pc has on average 400-580 proccessing power. The newer pocket pc can handle 3D games and graphic yet there not many avalible. Thats because alot of developers just stopped making games. At one time someone PM me and ask why dont i make full lenght games . I answered i make short game demos but i dont put all the time to make a long game because it wont pay off honestly. I made short games for wvga like mario quest,pong,and pac-man for free just so people have something to play with. I have a website full of free games i made or other developers made but thats it. If piracy continues like this , in the future they will be no full lenght games and apps. Just freeware developers make in thier free time. I hope everyone will chip in and give thier opinions on this.
