I can't, that's why I'm looking into Droid handhelds

as for Cave art style complaints...

Dangun Feveron...give that a go in MAME
i mean, it's not ideal. you basically are just shooting all the time and you move your ship around with your finger. i know it's not "pure" or whatever, but it beats obsessively looking at facebook or playing some angry birds junk when you're waiting around somewhere and all you have is your phone.

Dangun Feveron looks awesome! gonna need to get a good MAME set up going soon, i think.

not sure if that's a slight against me for playing those games or a slight against cave for releasing so many of them. but either way:

it's neither. it's a slight against TheRev for suggesting they suck.

Feveron would make a fantastic IOS port, its gameplay seems perfect for it.

Although the Saturn wins for 2D games and shmups in particular, I went with the PS1 port for Donpachi instead of the Saturn version. The first one I bought was Dodonpachi for the Saturn, and after I read on the shmups forum that the graphics are actually cleaner on the PS1 ports, I bought Donpachi for the PS1. The PS1 Donpachi does look cleaner than the Saturn Dodonpachi.

That said, I think I will still buy Donpachi on the Saturn someday. I'd like to compare the two, mostly because I'm an OCD sperg or something.
