Compendium Update! And not just data either!

I would say the market is a little small for that, don't you think? The subset of Gamers that owns an iPhone can't be that big...

What would really be cool would be a Virtual Gametable.

I think it is big enough. I made a survey of the gamers I went out drinking with last friday. 60% had iPhones, or 3 of 5 people polled.

Extrapolating that to the estimated 4 million people playing D&D would give a potential customer base of 2 400 000 people. Plenty of pontential there!

Or in other words, I want everything DDI to work on my iPhone and I'm willing to bend statistics to fool WotC into doing it!

Well chrome uses something similar to Safari to render websites, so the Omens look good!!

At a lunch meeting I attended yesterday, 4 out of 4 game industry professionals had iPhones. (And 4 out of 4 of them appeared when mine beeped with a text message.)

In my gaming group, 3 out of 5 players carry iPhones.

This is quality market research here. Get on it, WotC!

Nice, very nice. Our feedback in action!

 

[Zaukrie]

Impossible.

According to Gleemax and ENWorld, WotC never listens to its customers and makes changes, and they have totally shut down all DDI development. This must be a hoax.

Bahahahaha. Sure.

It's not as big as the subset of gamers that own dice, but it's still a pretty impressive percent.

(That said, I don't own an iPhone, so I favor other efforts that benefit me personally. This compendium thing seems pretty cool. I'm a little bit scared about their popup things--their art galleries tend to work a little bit funny with my browser, especially when scrolling gets involved. These seem to have their own scroll-bar, though, which is a good sitn.)

Remember though, the Safari Browser on Iphone and the browser on Android are both Webkit... so that might not double the number but definatly brings it up



And it means if it works on an Iphone, it works on my G1 (and I have a real keyboard )

And while your at it make a native OSX version of the Character Builder.

I bought a Windows computer so I could use the Compendium, and I'm thinking my next cell phone will have internet capability (iPhone, Google phone, whatever) so I can always access the Compendium.

I am a tool of the corporate machine.
