Excuse me if I sound intolerant but, do kids really need to play mobile games? I don't understand why most parents are happy to hand over an iPhone to their kid, then complain that their games are constantly trying to syphon money. Just find something else to keep them distracted then, get a second hand gameboy for example.

Nope they dont. In fact it has shown to slow their development (social, mechanical, physical, speech). Kids should be playing in the real world for a long time before they are exposed to the virtual world. But so often parents make these decisions based on nostaliga ("Oh look my 3 y/o son is playing Zelda just like I did when I was a kid")
