Why are there hardly any decent apps or games for this piece of shit?

Because it's a fucking phone you retard. You want a handheld get a Game Boy or a PSP.

There is. You're just a retard.

>>386636395
The same reason why there are barely any for iOS, Microsoft phones, or any other kind; because mobile gaming is garbage.

1. Games are designed around touch controls
2. It's cheaper and a lot more profitable to make gacha games instead of full fledged traditional console-style games.

A shame really. Smartphones have the potential to be the ultimate gaming devices but with the way things are they're just overpriced portable facebook machines.

Because the Xperia play didn't make huge success, loved that control pad built in

Thinly veiled recommandation thread

Because you only tap on weeb games in the play store and get only trash weeb gacha recommendations.

There are still games like Terraria and super hexagon.

This.
If you want portable gaming get a fucking handheld.

Any decent droid emus? There's a whole shitload of these things, and half of them look like scams.

Terraria is a worse version of the PC one, and Super Hexagon is shit and repetitive

Because it's a fucking mobile phone. They don't have good games by default. If you wanna play games on the go get a handheld like the 3DS or PSP/Vita. Hell, get a Switch isn't that its gimmick?

Drastic is your only option for DS emulation

Definitely worth it. It even has high res rendering to improve the 3D models and resolution

Be sure to use the Quilez filter

I'm sure there are good games but I'm not gonna be the one sifting through all the utter shit to find them. I'd literally rather just not play games.
