Zeus 04/28/20 8:45:25 PM #19:	Yes, by far. Great size, incredible battery life, good enough specs (rather than overdesigning it), and a spectacular library. The console of capable of playing most things that I could hope for in a handheld title. The PSP & Vita were overdesigned, over-sized, over-priced, and had shit battery life. I absolutely hated the PSP and had little interest in the Vita as a result. I had considered getting the PSTV up until I learned that it couldn't run PSP games and couldn't access the full Vita library. The DS-L and 3DS are alright, but they're too big and the battery life on the 3DS is so-so. If you are going for higher-tech, the 3DS and N3DS are probably a decent compromise, whereas the DS is in a weird nebulous zone (especially since it didn't even have an analog stick, which made games like the SM64 port suck). Granted, as a long-term design feature, a rechargeable battery will eventually doom a handheld since rechargeable batteries will always be available whereas the specialized rechargeable batteries for handhelds don't have that guarantee. Zareth posted... No headphone jack hurts it a LOT. Not at all. Who even uses those while handheld gaming? --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:938271818] in Is the Gam...

Dreamgamer_lgbt 04/28/20 9:35:48 PM #30:	A lot of people say PSP , but that thing was breaking pretty easy , cheap plastic from shell to wires . Didn't last as much as 3DS and I'm very careful when it comes to electronics . I will not comment on battery life , can't remember . Also, the discs were so fragile and large and the insert bay was a bit weird . One plus for PSP were the buttons . Complimented no matter what game you played . - Nintendo switch... buttons feels uncomfortable , it's not at all functional and the stick button is too high up making it unstable during gameplay . Cooling system sounds exactly like the one build on gaming laptops !!! and battery is not great for year 2020 . Requires updates like a computer . Doesn't feel like it will last long. The graphics is the only thing I like on switch . - 3DS had great sturdy build, buttons on the right place , good battery life , no massive cooling system and it lasts a long time ( except for certain paint and sometimes the joints and sometimes the stick button if made from cheap rubber on some models ) My vote would go to 3DS --- Prejudice is bad addiction .
