Topic: Handhelds or Consoles

HandheldGuru97 · 2011-12-08T03:36:42+00:00

So which one do you prefer? Do you like to play a long drawn out play session on a console or do you like to play on the go? Give your opinion blow. I personally prefer handhelds, I just enjoy playing them more than consoles.

Handhelds that double as consoles when you plug them into a TV (PSP). I really wish the Vita had this feature, but oh well.

wait for that revision. At this doint all Handhelds should have HDMI or DLNA. One of the big features of sony phones and tablets are being able to connect and throw stuff at the TV and display content.

WAT!

I love both. However, I enjoy my 3DS since I can be anywhere to play.

The Wii U will be nice to play on the portable screen when someone else wants the TV. I can't tell you how many times I would have loved a feature like that for other console games; I would have beaten games a lot faster.

But that's something Sony should have put into the Vita as a main feature, even the PSP can connect to the TV.

You and me both, I live with 8 People, and they all have some form of an addiction to T.V I never get access to a T.V.

Handhelds for me - PSP, iPad, DS/ 3DS. It's a good time for portable gaming.

Depends on mood. Sometimes a handheld can be a console for me for a bit but Gamecube rocked.

I like both but I like playing on consoles a little more than handhelds.

I love both, but most of the time I lean more towards handhelds. I freaking adore my 3DS and my PSP.

handhelds since it's way easier to take them around and you can play them anywhere. for example, if I want to show someone a new console game, I have to haul my whole console and all. I don't have that problem with handhelds.

It's worth pointing out that since the iPad now has OnLive, then handhelds are capable of, literally, console gaming.

So just as well you can pair a OnLive controller to the device then, huh?
