On: The Future of Games on the Web

[debacle]

It's very easy to create a game that runs on the JVM, and because of the library maturity, after a very early point it becomes easier to continue in the JVM.

I would guess that JS runs on more platforms than the JVM, especially including WinRT and iOS.

[debacle → jiggy2011]

Well, yes. It's very likely that my TV's menu system is some variant of JavaScript.

But the important things support the JVM.

I don't think you have support for the JVM on ipads , Xbox360 or Windows RT (so surface etc).

JS in theory at least should be supported on anything with a relatively modern browser.
