This might be a ridiculous thing to say, but I don't think any real 'hardcore' gaming happens on mobile. I admittedly do not game as much as I used to, but I could never stomach giving up the pixels that came with a computer setup or console games...
I'm a big fan of Megaman, and those games are fine to play on a smaller screen, but for most of the games that people are trying to play on mobile, you have to settle for lower graphics, slower gameplay, and just a degraded experience overall.
Eseentially - I would rather play Metal Gear Solid on a TV/large Computer screen with a computationally adequate machine rather than try and play it from a 4" screen
Possible? Yes. With multi-core CPUs and improvements in touchsceens such as haptic feedback and dynamic tactile buttons it will be very possible.
Practical? Probably not, especially with stuff like this becoming widely available: http://www.oculusvr.com/. If we have the same definition of 'hardcore gaming', that is.

this is like saying that intel i7 is the fastest cpu ever to be build
