Hi,
I just recently looked at the local Jr. College and it seems that they are now offering some classes in game design. Pima.edu. I am sure that a college near you might have the same offerings.
I think also that you might want to look at taking some classes on ITunes U on IPhone app design-- I think there are some huge opportunities in this area. You will need to check out some books in Objective C-- It will help you if you already know some C as Objective C follows much of the same rules.
Most of all, I would say, if this is really what you want to do-- make a promise to yourself that you will follow this through to the end whatever the roadblocks. Never loose sight of the end result and never give up on your dreams.
