What's your favourite handheld console of all time?

[mikecoulter]

Mine was the DS Lite, but I feel myself tending towards my PSP 3000 recently.

Of course I started with the basics as a child, a Gameboy Pocket to be precise.

What's your favourite handheld console of all time?

Some History

I didn't know we refer to handhelds as consoles now... but thats besides the point.... Mine is the Game Boy Advance, oh man I had some fun with that thing

No such thing as a handheld Console buddy.
I'm not too sure, I got a DS Lite a few years back and the onyl game I have really enjoyed is Dragon Ball Z Super Sonic Warriors 2(Why are all DBZ cursed with such long fucking titles!) and Guitar Hero On Tour.

Yes there is... It's a gaming platform, in your hand.

The Game Boy Advance SD

That was a good "console"

 

[El Poncho]

ds lite for me.

 

[HardRockSamurai]

I like the DS.

I would have chosen the GBA, until I remembered that you can play GBA games on a DS.

So DS wins.

The word 'console' does not exclude handheld gaming devices.

A video game console is an interactive entertainment computer or electronic device that produces a video display signal which can be used with a display device (a television, monitor, etc.) to display a video game. The term "video game console" is used to distinguish a machine designed for consumers to buy and use solely for playing video games from a personal computer, which has many other functions, or arcade machines, which are designed for businesses that buy and then charge others to play.

[Tartarga]

i find myself incapable of liking anything nintendo puts into the market so the psp for me

 

[Dr. Wily III]

Gameboy Advance
Nintendo DS Lite

Allmost all were great but I love to play on handhelds.

 

[TheDuckbunny]

The original Gameboy/Gameboy Color. The only ones I've owned. Been thinking of getting either a DS or PSP lately, not sure which one to go for, or to even get a handheld.

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

GBA! ( I broke the screen on my original platinum though So I had to buy another. still worth it )

that GBA had so many good games (well, I only played a few good games. but they last a long time)

 

[Horticulture]

Either the original Game Boy or PSP. The GBA was fun, at least on the rare occasions I wasn't squinting.

 

[NewGeekPhilosopher]

I bought more games for my DS Lite than my GBA but I reckon I will get punted if I don't say GBA or Game Boy Colour.

 

[Go Fighting In The War Room]

The DS Lite.

 

[Soxafloppin]

Well the one i had the most fun with was of course the GBA, pokemon Silver yaay.
