I never got into hand held systems
I have a gameboy...the original and only used it on family trips never felt like playing it while sitting at home. It still works fine and has good games; Donkey Kong, Links Awakening, Mario 2 6 golden coins. Never felt like updating to somethings flashier....call me old fashion.
Do any of you share the same feelings? or do you update your system when you can? |

I never had a handheld system. I wouldn't mind having a GBA, but I can't think of a time I would actually use it anymore.

I've got a DS with a 2gb SD Card, it's perfect. Never got into portable systems until I got it.

I have a GBA and a PSP. Damn DS, biased againest lefties.
I do have to say the PSP, in my opinion, is the best handheld. It's a MP3 player, movie player, has internet access, and some good games. |

My buddy got a PSP right when they first came out and ended up only using it for music.. Then he bought an Ipod Nano so now his PSP is a paper weight..

I had a Gameboy when I was a kid, but it got stolen, and I never got a handheld until I got my DS in 2005. I don't know why I never got one until just recently. Gameboy, and GBA were amazing handhelds. I think it was mainly the batteries.
I play my DS more than I play my Wii and PS2 combined. I actually play it significantly more than both. It's just so awesome. I didn't get a GBA because it was hard to see shit with the original screen (I wanted one though). I'm a little bummed that I didn't get one when the SP came out, because seriously, the GBA had/has so many great games. The DS is the perfect thing for me right now. I bring it to work a lot, and play it when I'm early or on lunch. I bring it to my girlfriend's too and play it when nothing's going on, or when there's a little bit of time to kill. Plus, I have all the GBA games I missed out on to find and play. Fuck, I love the DS, and still think there's a lot of untapped potential (games wise). Conta IV out this year. |

Never owned one, but the DS interests me a lot. Probably will buy one as soon as I get a regular paycheck.

Yeah, I don't see how the DS is bias against lefties more than any other console/handheld. Unless it has something to do with the interfaces or some shit, but even then it's hardly different than any other system.

GBA is the best handhold ever though. Shitload of great games right there and it's backwards compatible with the Gameboy Color and original Gameboy.

The DS is, for me, the best console of all time.
Metoes, Advance Wars, mario Kart, New Super Mario Bros, Trauma Centre, Phoniex Wright, Hotel Dusk, Animal Crossing, 8 player online Bomberman, Diddy Kong Racing, Mario 64, The Settlers 2, Touch Detective, Sonic Rush, Sim City, Pokemon DIamond and Pearl, Custom Robo, Theme Park, those brain games and the 2 Kirby games. Jesus, thats a long list, I forgot how many games I loved. Then, if you throw in a SD card adaptor for about £30, you've got MP3, video and even homemade versions of all the Lucasarts point and click games AND Lemmings with touch screen support in lieu of a mouse, which is just perfect. |

The DS is the only handheld I've ever owned and I love it.
Although it's mainly my girlfriend's, I just use it from time to time. I don't see what the deal is with the DS having a thing against lefties, I'm a lefty and I use it just fine. |

DS Rules. I am looking forward to Zelda, FF XII RW, FF IV, and Sonic RPG for it. I am suprised however a Smash Bros, Mario Party, and Golden Sun 3 have not been made for it yet.

I imagine Smash bros DS (if they make one) will be one of the last great Nintendo made DS games before they have a DS2. I think Golden Sun 3 is going to be for Wii. |

The GBA has one of the most impressive game libaries out there, they have a lot of great games for the system in both new and remade games.

I never really got into the original Game Boy (or Game Boy Colour, or any other version of it) other than Pokemon, and that was fun. When I got a GBA though I freakin' loved it. I probably play more GBA games than DS games on my DS. And even then I play a ton of Mario Kart DS and such. <3 my DS

One thing the DS lacks that the GBA had was they have a lack of great RPGs and not too many imports of games from classic systems. The only games I believe the DS had that was on an other Nintendo system before were FF 3, Mario DS, and Diddy Kong Racing.

That is true but GBA had some great original titles as well like Golden Sun and Advance Wars.

I know Phantom Hourglass is coming out but an Ocarina of Time for DS would sell like hotcakes and would rock, although rumors are its going to be the launch title for Nintendos next-gen handheld.
