Re: Is it going to matter ?
Both Apple and Google have different ideologies. Apple with its walled garden versus Google that it is mostly open to everybody.
What we got (10 years later) for gaming.
IOS is flooded with casual games, mostly are pay-to-win.
Android has a lot of games, it has casual games, hardcore games, emulations, etc. There are tons of games for free (not pay-to-win), so it is a win situation for the customer.
Also, practically all joypads are compatible with Android, unlikely IOS where only a few joypads are compatible. It is because Apple also plays some abusive rules with OEM and hardware manufacturers.
For example, I play PSX games using my Razer Kishi and my android phone.
