i'm the opposite. only handhelds that i liked were psp and ds.
mostly because psp was sort of revolutionary at the time as multimedia device. and the homebrew scene was awesome for it.
and ds had gameplay that you couldn't get on consoles.

I'm not enough cautiois with my stuff for handhelds infortunately.
there's a scratch on my switch, I'm so mad that I play on docked mode only

Same, I still play with my vita more than with my ps4
Thinking about getting a switch light since they finally have decent dpads now

You aren't a gamer if you didn't have handhelds growing up

I'm convinced that people who use those terms are actually underage

Gonna have to deduct points for the shitty tiger game & Switch (not a real portable just because you can technically hold it in hand.) But it's a fair point. Not everyone wants to be or can be cyber fused to a full battlestation.

only a 12 year old wouldn't remember having a gameboy or a ds/psp, retard. you're so fucking stupid

too bad the switch misses the appeal of a handheld entirely by having terrible ergonomics, terrible battery life (except for the newest model), and not enough handheld-style games that aren't indieshit. unless sony gives it another try, there will probably never be a truly great handheld again.

>tfw used my PSP as a way to watch porn before I got my own computer
Man those were the days.

>Sony handhelds
you mean those things people only bought to install CFW on to play PS1 games on because the actual libraries for the handhelds are 99% crap?

This is the peak vidya experience right here, everything that came after was only a cheap imitation.

Same here

This takes me back

Consoles have better overall games, but handhelds are just comfier. Ideally you'd have both to alternate between.

You underestimate how many 12 year olds there are on Yea Forums.

Almost like... you could *switch* between the two.

Speaking of PSP, anyone play pic related? I saw it at a bargain bin for a great price.

my family cared so little for vidya they'd actively ignore it. nice

Handhelds + PC is the patricians choice, prove me wrong

If only it had a fucking dpad for hand-held mode.

I can't. You're right.

You can bet an official left joycon without wireless and with a dpad: amazon.com/HORI-D-Pad-Controller-Zelda-Officially-Licensed/dp/B01AJRN4CE/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=dpad joy con&qid=1567263043&s=gateway&sr=8-3

Sony, Sega, even Atari made objectively better hardware. It's just that they didn't get the good games & services on their with the Nintendo fairy dust. The DS, Wii, and SNES were the only times Nintendo nailed hardware design. But the Switch Lite proves they learned their lesson. Again.

Nintendo DS was probably the last time I really loved video games. Rhythm Heaven, Etrian Odyssey, Hotel Dusk, Radiant Historia, Elite Beat Agents, SMT Strange Journey, TWEWY, Castlevania, Ace Attorney, Layton, Picross. God damn that system had a great library.

I'm quite fond of handhelds as well. There's something about them that just clicks for me. Even had a GBA custom made using the gold Zelda shell but with backlit SP innards just so I can play all the Nintendo games perfectly.

The DS/PSP libraries are both amazing, what a great era for being a commuter.

Jesus Christ the size of those things
Doesn't it completely defeat the purpose of being easy to carry?

Saying the DS & Switch are in the same category tells me you left your nostalgia goggles on in the Gameboy era and never looked ahead. DS/3DS era was probably peak handheld in every way. And I'm old enough to have had an OG Gameboy.

3DS has no games and the DS library is a shovelware mountain rivaled only by the GBA.

also the DS has touch screen and dual screen, the worst two gimmicks ever created.

Imagine being such a total normie piece of shit that you never had a handheld. Holy fuck like just imagine what type of person you would have to be.

>tfw lost all my gameboy games

My only hope is that they are buried somewhere in storage.

DS definitely has SOUL

So ALL the games were bad and you never used the touch screen? And you didn't appreciate the convenience of the clamshell? Protip: next time you pretend you used those systems just to shit on them I'd suggest bitching about the 3D gimmick. At least give yourself some credibility.

3d isn't even a gimmick. thats like saying color is a gimmick. dual screen is fucking useless retard trash that does nothing, seriously just look at a DS emulator, all you need is a button to switch between screens, you aren't a chameleon your eyes can only look at one screen at a time.

>convenience of the clamshell
GBA SP did it better.

I played the demo and enjoyed it, it's only real problem is that it's on the PSP so it kind of has awkward aiming and moving. If you can get it super cheap might as well.

How do those work?

>3ds has no games
>ds only has shovelware
You are joking right?

Color is a thing most people actually like. Nauseating 3D that rarely adds to gameplay is clearly a gimmick. SP was great for its time. But not superior. And again, IDK what your idea of a good game is, but you could get a New 2DS XL right now and play beloved acclaimed titles from DS thru New-only and virtual console stuff for the next 5 years and still not finish the library of top tier games. What is your favorite handheld game man?

Maybe he meant there weren't enough black people???

Why didn't you buy new 3ds than? Some games work better on it.

Really depends what you do with it. I primarily use the handheld mode at home anyway, when the wife or kids want to use the TV for something else, or in my home office while waiting for something long to run during work, so it seems perfect for me.

I've been playing videogames since the beginning of TIME on almost every console, PC or PC port that has ever existed. I've even played obscure games that have been lost in time and I have to say that some of my fondest memories come from handheld gaming.
