    Oh yeah that's right. Vita TV is a thing now and I should seriously get it.

    I play my 3DS most of the time! But I do like playing on consoles/PC now and then whenever I get the chance.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    I split my time pretty evenly between handhelds and consoles. MissH and I do a lot of gaming on my Vita and 3DS. She completed FFVII and is halfway through FFVIII at the minute on my Vita. We've also started Pokemon Sapphire on the 3DS.

    My console time at the minute is usually dedicated to Destiny but I'll play Fifa if my brother comes round.

    Waiting patiently for FFXV, Uncharted 4 and Metal Gear Solid V...

    I don't like playing handhelds, but there are great handheld-only games that I want to play.

    Lately it's all I've been able to get to in terms of gaming. I think Terra Battle is the only title I've been consistently playing between real life drama, family, and work. I really just don't have the time to sit down and play consoles and when I do find time, I feel it could be better used for more creative endeavors.

    All the time. Almost every day, unless I'm reading a book on my commute instead. I regularly migrate between PC/console/handheld and each one of them has their advantages IMO.

    I need more 3DS games! And I used to play a lot of iPhone games when I was doing smartphone development - kind of over the indie smartphone games now though.

    I really like handheld gaming, and I easily spend more time with my 3DS and PSP than with my PS3. If we don't include my use of the PS3 as a Netflix box, that is.

    I do, yes. I mostly own handheld systems. The only big consoles I have right now are the PS2 and PS3.

    I play handheld more than console. During the week I have a decent commute on public transit so that's a great time for handheld gaming. Also my lifestyle with infant twins doesn't really afford me the luxury of sitting down for a long console gaming session very often. Handhelds are much easier to play a few minutes here and there.

    PSP
    DS Lite
    PS Vita
    3DS

    So every game back to 2001 is covered

    I almost exclusively play handhelds now. I very rarely find myself at home with nothing else to do besides play video games on my consoles. I can play my handhelds in the bathroom, in the bed, in the car, on my breaks at work and between classes (and if I'm feeling frisky I can even play them in class [ohohoho i'm a bad boy!]).

    I have the Game Boy Pocket, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance SP, DS Lite, 3DS XL, PSP (x2) and the Vita.
