Well, check out a GBA/DS fat screen vs a DS lite one, it's from that time roughly, not many more pixels but the quality is way different. But sure, a shame the whole mobile game industry is so incredibly crappy.

Yea, don't have to render all the pixels for full enjoyment, though I bet things like the UI would love the extra detail.

Either way, the industry has a greedy corpo problem, not a technological limitation problem.

Totally true.
