Hi everybody!
Do you own any Handheld Consoles? I wanted to make this a poll first, but I don't think there is a multiple choice option, and without one i would be rather lost.
I myself own a Nintendo DS Lite, a Gameboy Advance SP Zelda Edition (will one day be auctioned away on eBay), a Gameboy Pocket (not in use any more) and a GP2X. I also had the predecessor of the gp2x, the gp32, but i somehow toasted that with triple voltage
And somewhere in one of my drawers there should be an old GameGear. I still think it was years ahead of its time!
Oh, and if you want, you can also count my XDA Mini Cellphone/PDA 'cause I use it to play games as well =)

There is a multiple choice poll available, you just have to add the options individually (click add option button).


I have an old GameBoy somewhere, used to be a great laugh. The only time I might want to play games on a handheld is when I'm on a bus or airplane, but usually I'll just resort to a book, sleep, music or some mobile phone game. Not much use for anything else.

What I meant was a poll where people could sheck more then one answer... and for that you would need a phpBB mod...

I kinda like being able to go to the garden and play a bit... And the games available are different then those for pc, due to the screens, controls etc and i like those... and the instances where my nds crashes or is lacking ram or a good graphics card are minimal

I still have some primitive handheld console it has 4 games like tetris and other brick involving games
Im sorry to say but i dont like handheld consoles even when i took for a week the gameboy of one of my friends there was still nothing special.....

I like handheld consoles, they can get you out of boredom, but I don't own one.I actually "hate" consoles, beacuse games cost too much, but a friend of mine has a GBA and I play in the park. It's pretty cool.

I have a SuperCard for my NDS... pretty nifty, as it allows me to play... eh... backups... of all kinds of games... NDS, GBA, GBC, GB, NES, etc... and i even got linux for it... but that stupid linux does not want to work with my wlan router...
recently i've also been using it as an ebook reader... it's much easier talking my nds on a holiday then my whole cupboard full of terry pratchett books...
