Ouch, it hurts me that you linked to that specific April 2010 Steve Jobs memo about Flash when mentioning the rise of mobile gaming under the section concerning Club Penguin. Adobe Flash, and Flash gaming, will never die! Mobile gaming is full of casuals, anyway. (Also, I did not make any lifelong friends, or even any serious friends, on Club Penguin back in the day.)
I'm not into mobile gaming, and there are so many Flash games (Club Penguin included) that I definitely will hold to my heart for quite a long time. But, I think it's fact that Apple were a big reason that mobile gaming has now become a highly cherished business, and Steve's open letter was unfortunately one of the reasons that people moved away from Flash.
No, because I was seven years old and my parents warned me not to talk to strange penguins who invite you to their igloo to play puffles with.

Yes, just another reason why Apple is the devil!
