A lot of apps, especially popular ones are owned not by large studios and shit, but individuals and small groups.

How do you plan on staying ahead of the market? Your buisness model seems to be built to schill already popular games. In the mobile app market, finding the next big thing is where the customers are at. Franchises come and die quickly.

Seems like your buisness is built to be too slow for the market.

Nope
I Can Promise The Same Thing To All Developers, No Matter If They Just Started Up Or They Have Strong Hold In The Industry; More Exposure. The Aspect Of Trial Based Games Hasnt been Explored In My Description And I'm Sorry About That. Another Key Market Strategy Is The Case Of Offering Trial based Gaming And Application Environments To Potential Customers. As The Market Penetration Of Our Service Is Much Deeper, Due To The Wide Cross Platform Integration, The " next big thing" Is More Likely To Be Discovered On Our Service Than Any Other Out There.

Liz I wasn't putting a downer on your research I'm sure this isn't the only research you have done. But the problem is youre in love with the idea and when you're in love with ideas you find it difficult to understand others (your potential customers) might not like the idea so much. It's human nature. I've ran businesses, I still trade, I'm studying.. It wasn't a dig I just thought I'd give some advice

i would need an amazing battery and basically a cpu...my itouch and BB both share the same problem of lagging (i didnt say BB was perfect) when too much is going on, so i can only imagine the iphone is the same way..i kno combining all 3 or 4 into 1 would be the "effecient" way of going about it, but i have two pockets and no problem filling each

Well... Good. I don't completely agree with Ad tbh. I think the iPhone demographic spreads a lot wider in England. More boys than girls ages 18-24 have phones, 24 plus I'd say it's completely mixed. The majority of adults I know have iPhones, race is irrelevant, rich and poor is also irrelevant tbh. Some of the poorest people I know have iPhones! More girls aged 18-24 do you for blackberrys but there's nothing too solid to base marketing on within that demographic. Personally I'd say just gather information from as many people from as many people from as many walks of life as possible would be the best thing to do. Target markets when it comes to mobiles has recently been a LOT more difficult to pin point. Any app is probably going to be mass market thing. Aim it at everybody.. Maybe America is different.

People are always going to have phones, people are probably always going to use those phones to network, people are always going to have se sort of banter activity on said phone. Lizmans idea isn't too slow for the market, it's actually years a head. If he can keep up with what's popular in the market and have a solid social network base.. There's plenty of room for innovation when it comes to it.

I know a few people in America outside of college that have the Iphone, but colleges are definitely the demographic. Hipsters love apple. A lot of other people just get what's cheaper, that almost always being an Android.

The Blackberry is largely dead.

I Had That Idea In 2005. I'm Like James Cameron In That Way
Also Don't Tell Me About Market Research Especially When It Comes To Phones
That Shit'll Explode My Heart Tbh. I Know The Phone Market VERY WELL. Just Keep Throwing Me Suggestions Or Questions On The Topic. NO MARKET RESEARCH For Fuck Sake.... *Pant* *Pant*...

I Don't Have An iPhone And I Never had A Blackberry In My Life
Thats Beside The Point Though. As 'This' Is A 'mass market thing', My Point Is Validated Due To The Fact Of Our Wide Cross Platform Penetration And Our Potential Reach To Uh EVERYBODY. Especially Since EVERYBODY (Smart Device; No Feature Phone) Has Either An Android Device (Majority Actually), An iPhone Or A Linux/QT Operating System.

Haha okay my bad @_Lizman_ if you know about phone market research I won't preach.. Although what i was saying was aimed at Ad haha. sounds like you know about it.. I get the concept and thinks it's a good one really, probably best aimed at HTC/blackberry etc IN MY OPINION because they're more likely to want to be able to play apple games, than an iphone user play a HTC/blackberry game
