I use my tablet just to watch youtube since I will probably never own a 5-6 inches phone. For that it is the best thing.

But I agree, gaming and all is a joke. I searched rpg and city building when I got my Nexus 7 6-7 years ago just to find some crap facebook games mostly.
They never made pizza connection 2, patrician 2, emperor rise of the middle kingdom and so on.
Even for the old final fantasy games I think they addapted with some crap graphics.
