This study analyzed the competition among three game platforms, PC, Console and Mobile in aspect of user's gratifications using niche analysis. To do this, four gratification factors, 'transportability and accessibility', 'liveliness and variety', 'availability and economic feasibility', 'relationship', were assessed. To investigate competition level among three game platforms, niche breadth, niche overlap, competitive superiority of four gratification factors were analyzed. The results of niche analysis show that mobile platform appeared as a most competitive platform because it utilized diverse resources for game user gratification and had competitive superiority in 'transportability and accessibility' which appeared as most important factor determining user's gratification. However there was no game platform which had competitive superiority in all four gratification factors.

This study analyzes the lobby UI of the baseball manager game based on the mobile platform and proposes an optimized lobby UI. The UI layout-based detailed icons and button interactions in the four game lobbies are compared and analyzed by comparing and analyzing the common points and differences to finally calculate the optimized UI composition. Furthermore, based on the analysis, we intend to propose a lobby UI optimized for user-centered design.

This paper discusses an academic study on electronic games and their incredibly vast and rapid growth over the years. It specifically addresses the evolution of electronic games from the 1960s to today, the ripple effects of electronic games, and the development of electronic game platforms. In terms of scope, the study first describes the ripple effects of the emergence of electronic games in chronological order and from the "immersion" and "convergence" perspectives, and then explores the evolution of electronic game platforms such as arcade machines, video consoles, personal computers, and mobile game devices.

Mobile games will be one of independent industries on game areas and take the fourth standing in the important platform since PC Games, TV Games, and Palm Games. There are several reasons why mobile games will differ in their platform, behaviors, and habits. According to the data of market consultation about the figure of mobile-game players throughout the world, the Mobile game will increase steadily from 780 million in 2007 to 1860 million in 2010. Also, market income will mount up from $42,100 million to $87,000 million. 3D games have been playing important roles in our lives. Satisfying users' needs in high-quality games, they have been growing and attracting more people with their powerful visual effects and the three-dimensional design player. We cannot emphasize their tremendous visual impacts and animation effects too much. This paper displays how to design 3D application based on J2ME (Java 2 Micro Edition) and shows free movement of 3D objects receiving and responding to the keyboard of mobile devices withWTK (Wireless ToolKit) simulator on the 3D screen.

With the rapid development of information technologies, various types of game devices have been created. Moreover, the game contents are once created, they can be easily reused on several other devies without depending on their platform or media, which phenomena is so called as one source multi use (OSMU). Especially young gamers are good at not only playing the famous computer games but also good at using and utilizing the brand new and the latest mobile devices, they might be the major consumers in the area of mobile games in the near future. This paper discusses and proposes several points to be considered when a conventional computer game to be transformed into a mobile game. Since the points suggested are very useful when the conventional game is to be ported to the mobile devices of inferior performance, it is expected that more profits could be achieved in the market of mobile game with less investment and effort.

The purpose of this study is to design and develop a mobile game using J2ME, which is currently the most popular choice for game development to understand the process of mobile game development and to develop methods that address weaknesses of J2ME. The development was done with the Eclipse IDE(Integrated Development Environment) tool to simplify mobile game development by removing the need for complex commands and installation processes which are intrinsic to the DOS command Batch file arid J2ME Wireless Toolkit when used for the implementation of java mobile games. Literature was also reviewed on mobile game environments, the structures of J2ME Platform, and past research on mobile games, to investigate which parts of J2ME are important to the characteristics of mobile game development and how to implement these important parts when developing.

This study verified the memory occupancy, CPU processing speed, and average frame comparison of texture formats of ASTC and ETC in mobile Android OS. The virtual game scene was implemented as an experimental environment and built on the Android platform. Based on this, comparative verification data was extracted. ASTC has a 36% lower share of memory usage of 2D textures than ETC. CPU processing speed was 18% faster. The average frame confirmed 54 frames that was 58% higher. In the smart mobile game environment, ASTC confirmed the result of comparative advantage over ETC.

This research has implemented the new game to develop the platform driving type that we contact frequently in mobile game market. We produced the prototype, 'Milky Wavy', for it. This game conduct to avoid the hole in the bottom in map that it splits or rotates, gain the coin, and take points. This game is controled to many characters in both hands. We focus to play that many balls can be moved simultaneously in the consideration of the principle physical laws. This research suggests the method to manufacture multi-driving platform game to control many characters at the same time.

This paper analyses the main aspects the aspects of the Third-person shooting game and then investigates the released TPS games which are integrated with Role-playing game types of genres. Then we propose the technical points in designing and developing of the integrated action games to increase the immersion in playing the games. Also we propose the artifice in order to cut down the cost and enhance the portability to the mobile platform.
