Hand-held consoles just have to be one of the best inventions ever...

I totally love hand-held consoles.
It's great enough spending time with a console you have to connect to your TV, but hand-held consoles actually let you move around WHILE playing!
It's hard to describe the feeling you get from playing a great game while walking outside in the summer; that is, as long as the sun doesn't get in your way. :D

I'm planning on buying Final Fantasy 6 for the GBA soon, and I just know I'll love it.
I loved it to death on the console, and it's mathematical fact that a positive feeling + another positive feeling combined with it = unbelievable joy. :)

Yay hand-held consoles! :heart:

Hand helds are fun. But they lack the power of a Console, and the tiny screen gets annoying.

I like hand-helds, as well. The GBA seems to be so ultimate at times. :p I've been obsessed with F-Zero Climax as of late.

The Nintendo DS is far and away my favourite console at the moment. It's an awesome little console.

I still love my Gameboy! :D I still like the sound when you put the cartridge right.

I love my handheld, but it feels a little weird sitting there playing a portable system when I have a big TV set up with a console right there...

I have enjoyed playing on hand-held consoles in the past - but there's always a little something that's missing. I much prefer playing my consoles at home in front of a television. You get a bigger, better picture, and generally feel more comfortable.

That's my take on the situation. Now, if only Nintendo would release New Super Mario Bros on the Wii...

Handhelds are nifty and some have some very good titles, but the real meat and veg of gaming are still in home consoles which I ultimately prefer.

They're nice and all but depending on how you sit, it's easy to get cramps in your neck, or atleast a stiff neck.
