While I have never paid money for a mobile game, I would imagine it would be a viable option for someone who wants to play games on the go, especially since the portable gaming market isn't quite where it was ten years ago. I'd prefer to play on my 3DS but for many people, a phone is more important than a dedicated portable console, so being able to play console style games on a phone would be a really nice option for them. Touch interfaces have also come a long way since the DS era, and many games like DQ and the FF ports have tailored design interfaces that take advantage of the phones interface rather than just trying to haphazardly wrap the touch controls over a basic menu command, so it's not as big of a deal as it used to be.
