Mobile phone gaming has proved to be a major revolution in the field of gaming. But as it is commonly said that there are always two sides of the same coin, mobile phone gaming suffers from various disadvantages as well.

Firstly, mobile phones often suffer from the limitation of having low processing speed the devices used by various users and therefore end up being limited in scope. Another problem faced by various publishers and creators is that they are not able to describe it to the extent that a customer would be able to have complete information to purchase it immediately. Currently, these games are sold solely through Operators or Mobile Networks including GPRS due to which only some lines are displayed or screenshot to explain it the customer. Moreover, different games are available in formats such as .sis, java etc. due to compatibility issues with different mobile phone companies thereby creating a monopoly of games for some cell phone companies and leading to intense competition. For example, Motorola uses a .jar or java format whereas Nokia uses .sis format. 

To overcome these shortcomings, creators and publishers follow two tactics:

• Using powerful brands or licenses which suggest high quality of games being published; or

• Using famous and recognized play patterns

The above mentioned strategies help reduce the professed level of threat that is felt by consumers while deciding which game to purchase or download. These licenses provide an assurance of quality to the customers.

Recent improvements in these cell phone games consist of single and multiplayer as well as modern graphics. Rapidly discovering popularity is multiplayer games because of the fact that the creators get the benefit of playing opposite new people which is an extension of cell phone connectivity. 

Due to the latest boom of online gambling, companies are now taking an advantage of cell phone market to draw the attention of various customers. Taking an example of Ongame who are the creators of PokerRoom which came up in 2005, created a mobile phone version of the poker game which was available in fake money as well as actual money which can be played in single or multi player. Moreover, various companies such as SmartCell Technology are coming up with various cross-platform games such as that can be played on a PC as well as a cell phone.

With the introduction of Bluetooth gaming, multiplayer player games are becoming more and more popular by providing users the freedom to move while playing and allowing them to have dedicated screens so as to enjoy their game.
